It was a cool place that contained over 15 pinballs and other types of gains. It was close to mainstream venues, but took away in a picturesque neighborhood very peaceful and calm and safe. We enjoy being able to relax. ##### dawn Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marian Catherine 20 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### My favorite place to stay in the US This is the most fun place to stay that I know. The owner is responsive and friendly, the cat (who only lives outside) is so lovely. The antique pinball machine collection is one of the best I’ve ever seen, and it’s a chance of a lifetime to play. Kitchen is well stocked and beds are comfy. This place is exceptional! ##### Marian Catherine Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Raff 20 Dec 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Pinball Fun in Richmond, Virginia Unique and fun place to stay in Richmond.

Nostalgic pinball machines everywhere set on free play. Got the pleasure to meet the man himself. Great guy. The house was extremely clean as well as free snacks and in a good neighborhood. Highly recommend this establishment. 10 stars if i could. ##### Chester Stayed 1 night in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marian Catherine 23 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Second time, still a charm This is our second stay, and it's just as great as before! The beds are comfy, selection of breakfast is great, the manager communicates extremely well, the games are fun, location is safe and convenient, and the old cat is very friendly. Despite what someone else said, I have never seen a cat hair or any trace of the friendly little cat anywhere inside the house. I hope my kid gets into college here, so I have an excuse to come stay here more often. lol ##### Marian Catherine Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Hayden 13 Dec 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities We had a terrific stay ##### Hayden Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### amanda 14 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort This place was AMAZING!!
