Room was clean and bed was comfortable. Location was great and quiet at night. Soap and shower gel in bathroom was empty. Tables in breakfast area were not clean. Staff seemed overworked and stressed. Trash was overflowing
Very nice stay, quiet, comfortable, parking on site under the hotel (back and side access), very helpful and friendly staff, especially good breakfast selection!
Nice spot in a good location. Staff is very helpful.

It was all around ok. Not terrible. Nothing great. Hallway carpets were not swept. Elevators a little tattered. Room was ok. A/C didn’t do much no matter where I set it. The bed was comfy. The shower was hot. Breakfast was ok.
Our room was really clean and the staff was very friendly. It was also in walking distance from the venue where I went to see a concert. I would stay here again. Thank you!
The breakfast wasn’t the best but our room was great. The proximity of the hotel to the Allianz Amphitheater was ideal. We walked to the show. The area was nice. Didn’t feel unsafe once! We will most definitely be coming back to Richmond and staying here again!
Nice hotel in the downtown with spacious rooms and free breakfast. The room and common areas are clean and well maintained. Good value for money if you just need a place to spend a night.
The staff was nice and very helpful, especially the young men at the front desk! I spent a week at the hotel and my room was never cleaned 😒. I was asked the first 2 days if I needed anything but after that there was no more communication about cleaning my room or clean towels.
