We arrived in Richmond, Va on May 22nd unannounced and were extended a room after 10:00 pm with a very fair nightly rate. The hotel was nice and clean with very large rooms. The only issue that need addressing is that the TV was small in size and difficult to enjoy as far as it sat away from the beds,... More

This was one of the cleanest motels I have stayed in. Everyday my room was well cared for. The staff is very friendly and helpful. I would recommend it to anyone traveling in the Richmond area.

We stayed for 3 nights while my dad was in the VA Hospital having surgery. I can't say enough about the friendliness and the helpfullness of the staff. From the breakfast lady to the housekeeping and front desk. We will be back soon to the area and will definately stay here again!!

I had a glitch in the reservation process and called the Customer Service Division. The next day i was called by the manager who apologized and offered to have me stay with them at a reduced rate if i was willing. His genuine concern and offer was accepted and I booked a night which turned out to be a very... More

The room was very large and nice amenities. Also, the breakfast was good. The only complaint was the hall outside of my non-smoking room had a BAD cigarette smell.

This Hotel is strange. It looks like a Castle in some parts (complete with bars across the dining area entrance). Wax figures. Very friendly staff. Couldn't get access to wireless in room, staff offered to move us. Clean, older rooms. Very spacious. Good hearty breakfast included. Free parking. Would come again.

I have historically enjoyed stays in Best Westerns which is why I chose this one. I made the wrong decision. There are two buildings with rooms. I can only speak for the building behind the main one. Observations: - While there is an elevator in the main building there are no elevators in the back building. This is something they... More

Thank you for your response. I always appreciate both positive as well as negative feedback as it gives us an opportunity to make necessary adjustments. Regarding your experience with our high speed internet; I have implemented a new procedure for my front desk staff. I agree that the burden of calling tech support should not be the responsibility of the... More

We stayed here on April 11 and had a good experience. The decor is quite rustic. The room was quiet and clean. The Wi-Fi worked well. Our family of four felt that we had plenty of room. We liked the pillows a lot better here than at the hotel we stayed at the previous night in another city. The breakfast... More

Booked this hotel on Hotels.com and received a fair rate. Booked 4 rooms for an 8 guy golf getaway. The rooms are a little dated but clean and big. The free breakfast was the usual scambled eggs, waffles, toast, cereal fair. Overall I would recommend the hotel for families, guy/girl weekends but not for a romatic getaway.

Thank you so much for your review. I hope that you enjoyed your golf tournament as well as our property. The size of our rooms are large in comparison to a lot of other hotels. The gentelman who designed this property had that in mind. We hope that the next time you are in the Richmond area you will choose... More
