Richmond VRBO

Overall, the unit was very clean and a convenient short walk to the trail system which we were looking for. The neighborhood around was a little scary to walk through, recommended walking with someone. A box fan or oscillating fan would have been nice to have, to help drowned out the street noise, birds and people upstairs, especially for the guest room that is at the front of the house. Also, the coffeemaker is a very nice expensive one, but is useless if it doesn’t function properly and your left cleaning up the mess from the brew basket overflowing, replace it or leave instructions on how to use it (was told it had happened before, when I mentioned what had happened ). Lastly, the towel rack and toilet paper holder are not secured well to the wall, was unusable and same was about to happen with the toilet paper holder..…

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.

As Described

Just back from a stay at this property and it was just as described. I would stay there again without hesitation. I would recommend a good cleaning in the living room - dry cleaning the couch as well as rug, which is why I rated cleanliness with 3 stars. I had a little trouble with the check in, but the owner was available as needed. Not sure if this is VRBO or the owner, but I would urge a check out time of no later than noon. If it had been, I would not have to have left dishes in the sink!

The perfect, pet-friendly stay to visit Richmond!

We needed a place between NYC and Durham, NC to meet up with some family for a quick visit. This condo is very cozy, simply decorated, very comfortable and extremely clean. Very well appointed kitchen and 2 full bathrooms! Beds were very comfortable. The yard is a shared yard with 2 other units but very large. Our pup enjoyed exploring (with supervision). The chairs in the sitting area and the couch were very comfortable for our chats and TV watching. Street parking available right in front of the unit, which was very convenient. Easy smart lock to get in/out of the unit. The best part, the check out procedure is just to walk away!!! They take care of ALL of the cleaning!! The owners are very responsive via the chat function in the app. I highly recommend!!

Great value for price, beautiful decor and wonderful location

My exact words to the owner: Hello! We had a fantastic stay! We absolutely loved the location and thought the place was very well decorated. I appreciate that the owners didn't just go for the cheapest of everything. I noticed this in everything from the rug to the coffee maker. Investing in quality pieces, not just the cheapest thing that looks ok goes a long way and communicates a genuine care for guests. We liked the aesthetic, as well. The place was absolutely perfect for our purposes and we had a fantastic time!

First visit to Richmond

The place was really cute and comfortable enough. I’m not sure if the details had mentioned pets were allowed or not but I will make sure to look for that next time. We enjoyed our time there but the only thing was all the furniture and carpet rugs were covered with pet hair. There was hardly any place I could sit without getting pet hair all over my clothes. Other than that, everything was perfect.

Cozy House and Wonderful Hosts

The house was great. It worked well for my husband, my daughter, my baby grandson, and me. The kitchen was well equipped and came with coffee. Parking was on the street but we had no problem with getting spaces close to the house. The fenced-in yard worked well as we were traveling with our dogs. Christian ensured that everything was OK. He was helpful with an early check-in, stopped by to bring more coffee, and messaged us to be sure that there were no issues or concerns. I would highly recommend this house for a brief visit or a longer term stay.

Richmond history stay

We stayed here for 9 days in September. This place had everything we needed to explore all the history in the area and come home and relax. It has off street parking but we ended up parking in front as that was a little easier. The beds were wonderful. We slept great. There were two bathrooms which is nice even for just two people. We didn't do a lot of cooking but when we did, everything we needed was there. Everything was provided: laundry detergent, paper towels, toilet paper. We've always brought those things along in the past so it was nice to have them all provided and enough for the stay. We used the washer and dryer several times. We only ate in the area the last night at a bar/grill called Ironclad Pizza Grill. They have great pizza. The hosts were fantastic to work with. I needed a straight-back chair for some medical issues I have and they had two very nice ones waiting for us when we arrived.
