Heart of the Arts District Penthouse - West Broad VCU MCV Prime Downtown!

"In Downtown Richmond, there is always nightlife. The property does a good job of making it so outside noises are not overwhelming. Listing is exactly as described in a historic building. Lots of stairs & walking to/from nearby paid parking. Staff is friendly & knowledgeable.Would stay again if I needed to stay in downtown Richmond again."

Large City Center House - 7 BEDS/2 BA w/ parking

8/10 Good

"The house is an old one that’s been renovated and was perfect for the 8 adults—me and my husband and our 3 adult children and their spouses. We took the bedroom downstairs (behind the French doors) with 2 seperate queen beds and put the young adults upstairs—one bedroom with a king (and a twin bed in an adjacent room that nobody used), another bedroom with a king and the 3rd bedroom with 2 queens. They were all very happy with the accomodations. It was very quiet at night and we were able to adjust the temperature so everyone was comfortable. My only complaint is not enough flat surfaces in either of the 2 bathrooms or the bedrooms. The kitchen was excellent although we spent time looking for items as they weren’t necessarilyWhere you would think they would be. There was only one towel per room even though we had communicated how many of us there would be so we had to hunt for more towels but no big deal really."

Modern 3-bedroom 3 bathroom Retreat

10/10 Excellent
