Hotel prices for a lackluster hostel-like experience
Pros:

Location is good.

Cons:

The hotel feels more like a hostel and does not have standard hotel services for the price. They did not have extra pillows or blankets for the room (even though they said they were in a storage closet), they did not provide housekeeping, and staff were unavailable to answer calls to the front desk asking for basic items (more towels, pillows, etc.). The room was also miniscule, which is confusing for a city like Richmond.

The worst hotel experience
Pros:

Did not have it there as you have to wait for somebody to com and cook something

Cons:

It is a shame that booking .com can recommend this place. The registering is actually in the kitchen!
The bedroom was so small I couldn’t go around the bed if my suitcase was open.
The air conditioner was non existant only the heat was working.
The shower door would constantly open while taking a shower and flooding the bathroom.
Pornographic picture on the wall…..
I could go on…. I will no longer use Booking.com

No light, no fresh air.
Pros:

Great location.

Cons:

Windowless room. Neither Booking nor the hotel alerted us, during reservation process or in their respective email communications, that the room would be windowless. Grim and depressing room.

Staff was very nice, hotel was clean, but , we will choose someplace else next time.
Pros:

We didn't eat here, but the hotel was centrally located to many restaurants.

Cons:

The lighting in the room was terrible. Thx God, we had 4 windows that could have light coming in during the day.
The 2 wall lamps gave as much as light as a tiny candle. A hanging lamp over a desk, must have had a 10-watt bulb in it. They would be better off giving a guest a flashlight & have no lamps in the room. We had to actually go into the lobby to read at night, before bed.
