"The valet parking was immensely helpful, and the shuttle service was a real perk. Security was lax, though; a group of young non-guests snuck into the pool and were rowdy. I wasn't comfortable and left the pool area. The meals were overpriced. Find another hotel.2017-11-25"

"We were put on the concierge floor, but never told about the amenities. The TV remote control didn't work, and the toilet was stopped up. Both were taken care of by management. The pillows were way too big. The next day, the AC leaked all over the floor and we had to move to the 16th floor. No one helped us with our move, and we're in our 80s. The hotel manager was nice and gave us a discount, but I'm not sure we'd stay again.2015-05-11"
"Clean, comfortable room. Plenty of hot water for showers, and terrific water pressure. Check-in was smooth. Good on-site restaurant with great staff. Although the price was a bit much, the amenities made it worthwhile. We enjoyed our stay and will certainly return.2015-04-30"

"I had a pleasant hotel stay. There was a small park and beach nearby. The staff was kind and friendly. This will be my first choice when I'm in Richmond.2018-04-21"
"My stay at this hotel was incredibly disappointing. The room smelled bad. The walls were dirty, there were stains on the ceiling, and the bedsheets didn't look clean. Had to pay for guaranteed valet parking in the garage across the street, but I found my car parked illegally near the valet area instead of in the garage. I expected better for the price.2016-01-04"
"I asked for an extra blanket and got one, so I was satisfied with the service at this hotel. Go ahead and stay here.2015-06-23"
"The fridge didn't keep my food cold. Nice, friendly staff. Valet service was quick. I was disappointed that I had to pay for the breakfast buffet.2015-06-05"
"Great hotel for people visiting the Capitol building, Library of Virginia, or Library of Congress. Walk to the Amtrak Main Street Station. Only had 2 electrical outlets; I had to unplug the refrigerator to use the microwave. I had a pleasant stay as usual.2015-04-29"
