Historic Urban Downtown 1 Bedroom
About this apartment rental
* We are actively cleaning and sanitizing this rental with extra sanitation methods with each stay. One Elm Place was built in 1914 in the historic Downtown Roanoke district! It won the Golden Trowel award for the best historic building restoration in downtown Roanoke! Enjoy the history Roanoke Valley has to offer like no other destination in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia. With urban delights and modern amenities in bustling downtown Roanoke to classic Americana in quaint small towns, there is so much to explore. Don’t miss out on any of the history, culture, shopping, and especially the endless outdoor fun. This cute little historic condo has everything you need for your downtown stay. A sitting area with a full kitchen are located in the main interior of the condo. A private Queen bedroom with an on suite full bath located just off the living room. Walk to Restaurants, nightlife, and all downtown Roanoke has to offer! The Roanoke Valley is like no other destination in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia. With urban delights and modern amenities in bustling downtown Roanoke to classic Americana in quaint small towns, there is so much to explore. Don’t miss out on any of the history, culture, shopping, and especially the endless outdoor fun. At the center of the Roanoke Valley lies its namesake, the City of Roanoke, a vibrant city that combines pulsating urban energy with genuine southern charm. As the largest Virginia city west of Richmond, Roanoke is the cultural and business hub of the Blue Ridge Mountains. The city is home to a thriving arts scene that includes a symphony, ballet, theater, lots of art galleries and the nationally known Taubman Museum of Art. Downtown Roanoke is a treasure trove of unique shopping and eclectic restaurants. It's truly a great place to include on any visit to the region, but to fully understand the Blue Ridge Mountains you'll have to explore the rest of the scenic valley. *Please note that this property is in Downtown Roanoke, please expect city noises. Strict NO pet policy, please do not ask.

Well appointed quiet, space. Close to downtown and an easy drive anywhere else. I managed to lock myself out, and the owner and his management company helped me get in promptly. Will be back!

Cute and cozy apartment within walking distance of shops and restaurants. It had everything we needed. The only negative is that when we stripped the sheets and mattress cover to pile them up for laundering, as instructed, there was a large yellow stain on the mattress. Pretty gross to find after you’ve slept on the bed for two nights. The pillows and mattress cover should have waterproof covers on them and the mattress needs professionally cleaned. Also a box of at home drug tests in the bathroom which was odd. I get that people leave things behind, but a little more attention to detail when cleaning and prepping would be nice.

I couldn't be happier with my stay. The property is in a great location convenient to so many wonderful downtown restaurants. The apartment is beautifully furnished (with furniture that is actually comfortable, lol) and sparkling clean. I was so happy with my initial week that I extended by another.

Beautiful historic property in downtown. Great location, and nice space to stay. My wife and I enjoyed our stay, and it was well supported by the property manager. Check in and out was easy. Will stay here again next time in Roanoke.

Our stay was excellent. Everything was as promised, very clean and just what we needed for our weekend. We heard loud cars/ motorcycles a couple of times but it was brief and to be expected in the city. We were unsure if the bedside table lamps were intentionally left without bulbs or maybe an oversight. Neither of these things are deal breakers. Loved our stay and location. We had everything we needed. Definitely keep it in mind for future use. Thanks

Easy check in and check out. Property was very clean and well stocked for a weekend in Roanoke. Parking was plentiful in the nearby lot and street. Great location, just 1 block from Elmwood Park and the start/finish line of the Blue Ridge race weekend. I appreciate the washer and dryer availability, this was a huge plus! Bed was comfy, nice linens were provided. I would ask the property owner to consider blackout shades or curtains in the future - the bedroom receives wonderful sunlight throughout the day and into the night. Overall, I highly recommend this rental if you are looking for a comfortable stay near downtown Roanoke.

This property is ideally located, a very short walking distance to downtown Roanoke. Located near a park. The facility was a cute, one bedroom. It was just perfect for two of us. We’d love to be there again.

We enjoyed staying in this lovely home. It was clean & its description was spot on. Its location was close to rural areas, restaurants, & downtown.
Our host, Jim, was honest, helpful, & available.
We would stay there again & would recommend it too.

We loved the location as we were able to walk to restaurants, shops, bars, and the transportation museum. Definitely loud at night. The bedroom could definitely use a ceiling fan!

We enjoyed our stay in Roanoke, and found the property to be as advertised. We came to visit our son who lives nearby, and it was the perfect location and accommodation for the two of us. We did a lot of hiking in the nearby mountains, including a short hike to McAffee Knob on the Appalachian trail.

I would recommend this property to anyone seeking a great location near downtown or central to Roanoke in general.

We arrived at 1 AM and were very happy that the entry instructions were very clear and we had no trouble getting into the unit. We parked on the street every day and had no problems finding parking. Location was good and the unit was clean & exactly as advertised. If we were ever to come back to the Roanoke area I would stay here again.

Simple and convenient!
It's a clean, simple little condo and very convenient to downtown. It met our needs for the weekend perfectly. The only negative I can say is that it's an older building and the walls aren't very soundproof. Neighbor noise and street traffic noise is a consideration. Other than that, it's great.

We stayed here for 3 nights in early October and enjoyed our time in Roanoke. Other than a few minor issues we had no problems during our stay. This was apparently a new listing for the owner and there were, at the time we stayed, a few things to get adjusted. We were disappointed that the TV was not able to get any over-the-air channels so we weren't able to get any local or national news, sports, or weather. We did have access to Amazon Prime, Netflix and Hulu (not sure about other premium channels) so we did have some entertainment. The unit has both a washer/dryer and a dishwasher with soap supplied for both. The only issue we had was both used tablets and were mixed in the same bag with no way to tell which was which. We only used the dishwasher once and happened to have our own soap to use. We only used it once because it did not do a very good job of cleaning the dishes and it was so loud that we couldn't hear anything else. Couldn't hear the TV, couldn't even have a conversation. We were afraid that we were disturbing the neighbors. We feel these were minor and can easily be corrected (maybe not the noise of the dishwasher). The biggest issue we had was that the owner's agent stopped by twice and was inside the unit with us. The agent did not have a mask on and seemed to have the attitude that it wasn't necessary or needed at all. That really disturbed my wife and after the agent left and I realized what just happened, it disturbed me as well. This should not be something that anyone should have to deal with during our current global situation. Overall though, a nice stay in a clean unit in a nice neighborhood.
