Perfect for VCU graduation!
Pros:

We stayed here for a VCU graduation ceremony. The room was huge - easily accomodating our mixed generation family. It was easy to get to for the graduation ceremony. The room was cool during a very hot weekend. Check-in was easy and friendly. The artwork on each floor was a great vibe.

The location can’t be beat! The valet gentleman was fantastic, parking us right out front as we were leaving the next morning. He made a great restaurant recommendation and we were so grateful.

Great location, just the hotel needs more upgrades to their rooms and some of the staff.
Pros:

This is a great hotel in a fantastic location. I think some of the staff could use more training in customer service.

Cons:

I think some of the staff could use more training in customer service, and the shower faucet in the room could be better since the water pressure was not great. Also there was too much noise at night coming from the old air vent.
