I really enjoyed this property in Richmond. The check in was super easy and the fenced backyard was a dream for my two dogs. I brought my elderly mom who had no trouble getting into the property since there wasn't more than two steps at both the front and back entrances. The entire property was spotless, no bugs or dirt anywhere! Decorated beautifully, with a bathroom for each bedroom. The best part was the convenient offstreet parking in the back of the property. I'm not sure about everyone else, but if I have to parallel park on a crowded street it puts everyone and their vehicles in peril lol. Super convenient location to get downtown as well. Will definitely stay here again if I come back to Richmond. You won't be sorry if you stay here!

Hospital Visit

Needed a place close to VCU for a series of medical appointments and this place was really close and super nice. Truly the gem that they advertise it as. The fenced in yard is nice to have and we were convenient to everything we wanted to do. The idea was to be able to leave the car parked there and Uber to the doctor each day and all the attractions nearby and the plan worked beautifully.

Great location

My family came to visit my son and attend the Riverrock Festival. The house was a perfect location for everything. We could easily walk to the festival and it was close to downtown. The backyard was great for our dog, too. We really enjoyed our time here.
