Really cool vibe in this hotel. We weren’t able to check in early, but the Luggage Storage option was very much appreciated. The room was clean & comfy, but the AC was a bit noisy and there was a clanking sound outside the room all night.

Unique property, room was big and so was the bathroom. It was clean. The hotel staff was somewhat friendly (valet was excellent), the hotel itself needs some renovations. Like a lot of places in Richmond, you never know what you're going to get.

The room that we had, room 401 had a view of the air-conditioning system. There was no view at all. Also, the shower door never closed. It was always popping open. The bar was rarely open and when it was, it looked like there was no alcohol on the shelves.
