Pros:

location is great/ breakfast could have been better

Cons:

The only thing I didn't like was the tunnel of homeless people I have to walk through to get to the hotel if you don't know about the other entrance.

I had no hot water the entire weekend.
Pros:

Good location to the venue I was visiting.

Cons:

There was no hot water the entire weekend. I was assured that it would be handled day after day, but it never was. I had to take cold showers every day. There was also damage to the bathroom.

Reasonable rate for the convenience of location; clean, quiet and comfortable room.
Pros:

Weekend stay for easy access to National Theatre, the Capital Ale House and other walkable downtown clubs, pubs and restaurants.

Cons:

Hard to distinguish entrances as sister branded hotel in same footprint but with separate lobbies on separate floors but sharing elevators. After a show at a local venue, safer lobby entrance was closed and routed through an unattended entrance past questionable surroundings. Parking cost was steep for a weekend which should be reasonable to help draw visitors. We left our car in the hotel affiliated garage for two days for $50. Being close to the Capitol would be advantageous during milder weather weekends or during the business week. Staff courteous and available.

Would not stay again.
Pros:

Location was ok. Staff tried with what they had available. Hotel needs a lot of work.

Cons:

AC was broken, shower wouldnt drain. No one at the desk at night. After my convention ended and the problems were still not corrected it left me up until almost 2am to be able to change into a new room in the other hotel. Which left me exhausted for the next day at the convention. Wouldnt stay here again.

It was NOT a good experience at all
Pros:

Did not attend. Whole facility was not a clean atmosphere. Our entire experience at this location was horrible. Let me first say that We are Hilton Honors members. Just this past September for my daughter’s wedding our entire family and friends stayed at the Hampton Inn in Downtiwn Huntington NY and the entire stay and staff were wonderful!
A complete opposite experience to this last stay in Richmond Virginia. To begin with we always request feather free rooms as was indicated on our reservation. When we check in I always confirm this When we did do at the Richmond Virginia site. We were rather rudely told that they do NOT have anything feather free and the person at the desk continued to rudely say that they in fact have cats there!! I suffer from severe allergies and this started a bad reaction ( runny , stuff nose. Red swollen eyes) coughing. We then went up to our room In the room there was a horrible noise that sounded as if a freight train was running through it. I tried calling the front desk to report this. NO answer. At this point we had to drag all our luggage downstairs. Guess what. There wasn’t any one at the front desk. We waited and eventually she returned. She I firmed me that she can not sit at the desk all the time. A maintenance man( a very nice guy) came up to our room and he immediately said there obviously was something broken and that Ofvourse no one should stay in this room. He suggested I call the front desk to ask for a different room. Guess what— no answer! We trigger downstairs again( from the 18th floor and No one was at the desk. She finally appeared. Assigned a new room ( no apology)
The new room was quiet but extremely poorly kept. The top of the furniture and mirrors look like no one has cleaned them in months. The bathroom was dirty and not clean smelling. The desk chair did actually confirm that they did have a cat in that room at some point due to the long cat hairs on the chair.

Cons:

Continued from above. When we decided that it was getting late and we were tired and hungry we went to ask for any suggestions for a place to eat. She told us to google it!
This whole stay was a bad experience. In such contrast to our previous experiences with the Hilton chain. My husband said to me that he really thinks we should think of switching to a different chain in the future

Unfortunately Terrible
Pros:

Nice room

Cons:

My Booked room had no heat, so I was moved to a queen room and downsized but still paid the same amount for King suite I booked. Then hotel had no running water for our entire stay so we had to leave early. A waist of money and staff was no help because the only explanation I received was we are not liable. No type of compensation or anything for staying in a hotel where you could bathe or use the bathroom
