8/10 Good
"Room excellent . Plenty of parking and staff overall helpful. Didn’t ask if I was a rewards member which I am and have yet to receive my final bill by email. Breakfast was a little lacking. No decaf coffee (which was a keurig machine ) forgot part of my breakfast, not busy so just lack of attention to detail ."

The Commonwealth

The Commonwealth

10/10 Excellent
"We had an excellent stay. The Commonwealth is a perfect combination of new and freshly remodeled, while also offering real charm and historical tradition. We booked a suite, which was fantastic as it allowed out 18-year-old son (who just started his Freshman year at the University of Richmond) to sleep in the pull-out sofa bed on two nights. This allowed my wife and me to spend some great "late night" time catching up with him before we turned in. Anton at the bar was excellent, offering great conversation alongside awesome drinks."

Linden Row Inn

Linden Row Inn

10/10 Excellent
"I was unfamiliar with the area, and the staff readily helped me and my son find a wonderful restaurant to dine at for dinner and then the next day a delicious restaurant for breakfast. They also helped me figure out how to use uber to get to the concert we had tickets for and helped us with ancillary food needs. And the late-night attendant helped me figure out my room's TV remote that was unfamiliar to me. Our rooms were off a quaint plant surrounded staircase. I will most definitely stay there again."
