About this apartment rental
Poseidon is a newly renovated studio on the Water Street side of the Downtown Mall! This bright and airy unit is around the corner from the Historic Downtown Mall itself and will be quieter than other spaces facing the Mall, yet still easily accessible to all the dining and shopping the Mall has to offer! During the Spring through early Fall the City Market farmer's market is held right across the street.
*Please be aware, no parking is included with this rental, the most economical option is the Water Street parking garage a few blocks down.
**Note: The name of this property has recently changed, it was formerly called Water Street #2!**

All was great.

This was a perfect location for our trip, and we’ll be booking again in the future!

My wife and I stayed for two nights. Location, location, location for easy access to the the Downtown Mall and its vibrant collection of more than 120 shops and 30 restaurants housed in historic buildings along the city's Main Street.
The condo was nicely done and had plenty of amenities for a weekend stay.
Minor drawback was the road noise and fairly bright in the am due to the blinds.

Property was ultra convenient only one block from downtown mall. Coffee maker is a cup style Unit, so coffee we brought didn’t work out. Note there are 25 steps to reach the unit. Not an issue for us, but may be for a few.
Highs:
Comfy bed
Nice towels
Plenty of TP & dish soap
Super shower
Light & airy
Upscale appliances & cookware
Location
Clean
Lows:
Bathroom faucet only provides a small stream of hot water
Washer & dryer behind sliding doors that really are hard to move
TV is basically “App based” as no over the air local options. Bring your passwords!
Would absolutely stay here again!

The loft is spacious and modern. Large bathroom with a great shower. The kitchen has a large, new fridge and all the kitchenware is Crate and Barrel. You will have to pay for parking, but the deck is only a block away. Remember to bring earplugs. The downtown location is very convenient, but there is a lot of street noise.

Nicely remodeled, clean loft in great location basically on the downtown mall. Perfect for solo travelers or I suppose a couple with plenty of space to hang out. Only drawbacks are that it is on one of the main streets and so there is traffic noise to contend with and also the ceiling/floor to the unit above must be super thin as you can hear every footstep of anyone above. The person above during my stay had such heavy footsteps that I felt the bed shake. Other than those things it’s ideal.

The location is prime so close to restaurants and bars! We did the hop on tour which was only a 10 minute walk from the bnb! Didn’t have to get any taxis (I hear they’re hard to come by in Charlottesville). The place was so cute and had everything we needed.

Loved the proximity to the downtown shopping area. Got to walk to shops and restaurants daily which was awesome. Movie theater is close by, which was neat! Apartment was clean and had pleasant accommodations. Didn’t realize there were so many homeless people in the downtown shopping area, could be uncomfortable at times especially when they were pan handling. That was the only negative thing I’d have to say about the area. Overall, great! Check out “The Glass Palette” if you are staying in the area, really cool glass art projects you can make.

Had a wonderful 2 days and enjoyed being downtown. Saturday farmer's market was across the street, and Cville's best bakery down the block.
Very stylish and comfortable apartment!

This is the perfect place to stay for exploring Charlottesville. You're right off the pedestrian mall and can walk to so many restaurants and shops. The photos are accurate; I think it was even nicer in person. It has a nice, airy loft feel; very contemporary. So spacious. Wonderful comfy king bed. I wish I could have stayed here longer and would love to come back.

Very cool property in a great location.

The apartment was well-located and clean. The property manager was very responsive and helpful. We had an espresso maker but not a coffee maker and it was missed. It also would have been nice to have reading lamps near the bed. Overall, a nice place to stay for a short visit.

Easy to find, and great location. Tons of eateries for quick grabs and nice restaurants as well.
The studio is clean, airy and well appointed. As a previous tenant mentioned, hot water for the shower is limited; it wasn’t a big problem as we split when we showered (night/morning) but it’s not optimal.
The bed is super comfortable. Linens are nice too. Slept easy.

We had a great time staying at this loft close to the downtown mall. We stayed 4 nights and wanted to be within walking distance of bars and restaurants. The location could not have been more convenient. The only downfall was having to pay for parking every day at the local water street public parking garage $12 per day. Otherwise our stay was perfect.
We did find the water does not stay warm too long in the shower. Just enough for one person to shower, so if you’re traveling with a partner maybe alternate showers, evening and morning. We were able to make it work. The water pressure was amazing and made up for the length of time it stayed warm.
To other travelers, note there is no elevator so you do have to carry luggage up two flights of stairs.
Thanks for a great trip to Charlottesville!

My husband and I were in Charlottesville for our anniversary and we stayed at this lovely property. The property manager was very responsive and accommodating to our request to check in early. It’s right downtown in the middle of everything with a short walk to UVA.
