Great stay — near VCU, good communication regarding minimal issues (how to lock the door/check in and out), and clean, well appropriated home. Will definitely stay again.
We live in the neighborhood and had some extra guests that stayed here. It was a great stay- nice little comforts like some water and snacks. The property was just as advertised - clean and so convenient to downtown. James was quick to reply and the check out process was simple. Would definitely use this again for visitors.
The place was perfect for us. New construction so everything was new, very clean and well appointed. We would definitely stay here again if back in the area
I booked this place with my boyfriend and another couple for us to attend our friend’s wedding. It was in a good location, and had great amenities like a dish washer, laundry, and even dish ware for us to use. The staff were friendly and communicative and it was a great place to stay.
My sister and i looked for a couple of hours online at places to stay. Decided on this unit...we were well pleased with the location and the place. Great communication with the host. Would definitely recommend this place if you are going to visit Richmond.
This is a great property. The space is good. It is well maintained, clean and comfortable. There is excellent communication with the owners. I would highly recommend this property.
We are from Arizona and the weather for us was perfect. As we had not seen rain in a long while it was so very nice and relaxing. Drove down to Roanoke to go to Black Dog Salvage and it was a fun place to explore. The toll roads leave a bit to be desired but probably very necessary considering the amount of traffic on them. Lots of wonderful local restaurants that were all serving good food and great service.. It was a very relaxing week and most enjoyable.
Host was amazing - super nice, communicative, and went out of his way to help us out when the timing of our visit got re-arranged on our side. One of the very best hosts I've encountered start to finish. Highly recommend this place to anyone else considering it.
Very clean! Host was a great communicator and responded very quickly. Location was perfect. Easy walk to the city and river and canal walk. The walk was about a mile. Would recommend
Wonderful location. Exactly as described. Host was very communicative and the duplex had everything we needed. Highly recommend!

Great beds and the unit had everything we needed for a quick stay. The host, Mr. Devine gave lots of great info about the area and was helpful all around. We loved walking around the neighborhood and found Brewers Cafe to be a delightful stop for local flavor and great breakfast sandwiches.
The only negative is that this is an apartment style unit, and there was quite a bit of noise from other the units
