When I checked in, it was the first time using one of my credit cards. First time ever. Later that day I get a notification of charges from a hardware store for over 200.00! I wasn’t there shopping for tools. My wife was in the hospital and I was there to see her and make her final arrangements. The only way this could have happened was with the staff that checked me in.

The location of the property was ok. The cleanliness of the property and the up keep of the property was not great. the paint in the bathroom was peeling and the bath tube had a ring in it.

Decent hotel but good employees

The hotel was nice for the most part other than one of the elevators weren't working. The employees were very friendly to us. Overall it was a good hotel with good placement. Right in downtown.

Nice play to stay!

Cons: The smell of gas from the van that picked us up from train station
Location: A lot of eating establishments but no place to park! So thankful hotel had another van to take us places
The experience at the Holiday Inn Express downtown Richmond was great! The only bad part was when they came and picked us up from the train station in a van that stunk like gasoline! Almost made us sick so thankfully the ride wasn't very far to the hotel. Other than that it was great. The staff went out of their way to let us know accommodations for places to eat and go visit. Would definitely stay there again.

Good choice

Pros: Price, location, breakfast
Location: One of the closest places to eat was called the 3rd St Diner. It has a very interesting history and even some ghosts!
This hotel was a good choice for us. We wanted to be where we could see more of Richmond on foot, yet we wanted somewhere reasonably priced. The hotel was over all very nice. The room we had on the 6th floor had a nice view of the city lights at night. It had been recently fixed up, with nice touches, new lampshades etc. Cleanliness was OK. Do note that the hot water was VERY hot. Parking could be a real problem for people with large cars. We drove in with our smallish pickup truck and the antenna was hitting the ceiling of the parking garage, it has only a 6 foot clearance. The elevator can only be used with the room key, an extra safety feature, but perhaps a sign of a troubled area. There were plenty of places to eat that you could walk to within 15 min, but it is in a neighborhood where you might not want to walk alone late at night. The breakfast that was included in the rate was very good, something for everyone. Warm items were included, sausages, gravy, omelets. We also used the free hotel shuttle that will take you anywhere you want to go within a 2 mile radius. All the people working there were very pleasant and helpful.
