My recent stay at the Dinsmore Inn was quite pleasant. The highlight for me was definitely the outstanding breakfast, which was truly 'out of this world.' The location was ideal, near key attractions and right across from UVA Hospital, which added to the convenience. I thoroughly enjoyed the cozy atmosphere and the beautifully decorated rooms. On the flip side, while overall great, some areas could use a refresh, particularly things like carpets. Overall, it offered great value for the price.
