I'm glad you had a great stay and I hope you had time to enjoy what Richmond's Arts District has to offer! We look forward to hosting you again the next time you are in town!
The property was nice and close to the white coat event that we attended for our daughter. Centrally located, the property is near the medical college at VCU as well as many historical sites. We stayed on the 4th floor and there was an elevator that allowed access for those that have difficulties with stairs. The unit was clean and nice.

We thoroughly enjoyed our loft in the arts district for our anniversary weekend getaway. Everything was clean everything worked it aith only a few minor issues.
All of which, the manager thanked me for letting him know of the issues and promise that everything would be taken care of. Staff were great and just being in the arts district was just a very pleasant and relaxing weekend. Thank you
Great location. Great apartment. Great host. Everything was great. Would recommend.
* Comfortable, modern apartment with a high quality king size bed. Was very clean.
* Location in the arts district near shops, restaurants, VCU, the Contemporary Art Museum, and general grocery/pharmacy stores. All walking distance.
* Very fast internet (100+ Mbps). Could stream my phone to the TV.
* The apartment was surprisingly quiet considering it was along Broad Street, in a bustling location.
* I was in town for a business event. Had to extend my stay twice at the very last minute. I was there for a total of 10 nights. Mark (the host) was accommodating, helpful, responsive and flexible.
* Apt building and apt was easy to access.
Will definitely stay here again when I return to downtown Richmond.

All was really great Minus the parking situation. The apartment was furnished with more than we expected everything we needed to do our cooking and meal prepping. I would stay again even with the price of parking

As detailed in the listing, we have no control over parking, its the city. However, we do have control over an exceptional value/experience complete with a full kitchen and your own in-unit washer/dryer at a fraction of the price of the the 4 star hotel right next door ($350 a night + tax + parking @ $20 daily). In comparison, our fantastic room rate plus the $16 daily parking rate we deal with would seem a value in comparison . Leaving us a 4 star review because of parking is just not fair. Nonetheless, we gave you 5 stars across the board, probably not the most accurate review in retrospect.
Wishing you the best in 2023
