Using Trip Advisor, I did find the Alexander House Inn, but even with GPS, you need to look closely as it is on a residential street and looks like many of the houses near it. I mistimed by arrival by an hour or so. This wouldn't bother many other hostels/inns, but as the proprietors take turns managing the place and... More

I stayed just for one night, but wished I could have stayed longer. I felt so at home. Nice room, beautiful setting. Very eco-friendly too. All organic food from local producers. I would definitely stay there again.

My friend and I both enjoyed and greatly appreciated our recent stay at the Alexander House. It has a calm and beautiful ambience --something hard to find when you add very comfortable as well. We felt so at home and safe and the people we met were so nice and interesting that I freely call this place a gem. Not... More

I had driven 3 hours in the pouring rain on unfamiliar roads from Washington DC and ended the journey by getting lost in Charlottesville. He talked me through the last two miles and made sure that...

My girlfriend and I stayed in one of the guest house rooms while we were on a three day visit to UVA. The house is clean and charming, the staff was very friendly, the kitchen is well supplied (we only cooked breakfast there, but it looks like you could easily make a dinner with the available equipment), and the bed...

I stayed in the hostel part. It was a large room with 3 sets of bunk beds. It was the best bed I have ever had in a hostel. I was able to sleep well and in comfort. The whole place with extremely clean, and the showers were the best ones out of all the hostels I ever stayed in.... More

We've stayed in the inn-part of Alexander House. The inn has three rooms with a shared bathroom and a common area with small kitchen. The hostel is in a separate building. The inn was homey and cosy. Because there are three rooms, the atmosphere depends on who's staying. We had the house most of the time to ourselves, with plenty... More
