Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Richmond I-95 South, VA
I gave breakfast a 4 ONLY because the waffles were sticking in the waffle machine, even with the spray. Otherwise, the hotel was clean and well-maintained. The staff we interacted with were pleasant and friendly. Rooms were clean. Would stay here again.

MV GiaMaria
We liked the coziness of the boat, the views of the river, the surrounding areas were beautiful. The only negative thing we could say was that due to the ran/wind the boat creaked and it made it hard to sleep for one of our nights.
