Awesome hotel right in downtown Richmond. Very affordable and excellent rooms with very comfy beds. If you're coming for tourism, it is 3 blocks from the capital, about 7 from the train station, 9 from Poe Museum etc. Excellent experience overall and definitely worthy of consideration. To be very blunt, the room was nicer than many "name brand" hotels I have stayed in. Even some of the "higher end" brands. Thanks for the great stay!

My 1st trip to Richmond
I enjoyed my stay. I was in the city for vcu orientation with my son. My recommendation for the future if there’s way to change the amenities in the bathroom like bar soap. Also you need to act immediately to change the shower curtain liner to plastic. The shower head spray water out of the tub. The floor very smooth and water on it means very dangerous. All staff and wander full

Great service
The valets were quick to respond and the front desk personnel were very nice. They hotel seemed very old, which I'm sure it us. What bothered us was there was a band-aid covering the peep hole on the door to the room.

Not a big fan of this hotel. Room stayed warm- AC goes down to 68, but was not cool enough. Beds are cheap and uncomfortable. No gym and no partnership with a local gym. No refrigerator in the room!
