More than adequate place to sleep

Second time I have stayed at this location because of its easy access to the Altria Theater. Parking is very good except it costs $20.00 per night. Beds are very comfortable. I appreciated the addition of the grab bar in the bathtub/dhower. I like the Dove soap and shampoo products. Quality of towels and wash clothes needs improvement I felt the hotel was stingy with Keurig k cups—only two so my friend and I couldn’t have a second cup.

One night, good experience!

We were able to check in a bit early, which was very helpful because of a meeting in Richmond. Alana, at the desk, secured us a car and driver to get us to and from. I am recovering from a stroke and, though it was a short distance, the walk would have been difficult. Our room was great, very comfortable with views of the city.
