Drury Plaza Hotel Richmond
Great place… only issue is there is a women at the front desk who uses her phone all the time and deals with people as if they are a nuisance. Rest of the staff is helpful and seem to go out of their way to be helpful.

Motel 6 Sandston, VA - Richmond, Va
The room I booked was very different than the one we got. There's a ton of more about quiet time, yet all night long people and children were yelling. If you can't sleep through planes flying right over you this isn't your place. Very disappointed, would not stay here again.
