    We loved everything about the Lafayette when we were there in May. Alan and Kaye, the innkeepers, and staff were wonderful and saw to our every need. We stayed in the Washington Suite which was spacious and comfy. We loved that it was a true suite and allowed our teen aged daughter some privacy on the sitting room's pull out queen sofa. The restuarant was beyond amazing--every bite was a delight. Worth the short drive from Charlottesville.
