As Advertised
Nice apartment within a larger old building. Perfect for our evening out. We did dinner at Rappahannock (2 blocks away) and a show at The National (5 or 6 blocks). And best part was the walk up pizza place across the street. We got a couple slices at 12:30 am on the way back home. No issues with this place.

Christmas gathering
Needed a 2 bedroom 2 bath, pet friendly with full kitchen for Christmas festivities with our son & his gf. Worked out well for us. A bit tricky understanding fob, key, lock box, parking but called and property manager picked up right away and was quite helpful.

Sisterly Convention
The location was perfect to the convention center. While the place was visibly clean there were some issues. It didn’t quite look like the pictures. The sinks didn’t drain the water from the upstairs bathroom leaked downstairs. Maintenance said someone showered w/out putting the liner in the tub, which wasn’t true, because we had no hot water since Friday morning. We were unable to shower before meetings on Saturday. Saturday night when the shower was on it leaked through the ceiling again.Last, Sunday morning I wanted to toast a bagel only to find the oven dirty . It appeared as though something had spilled over.. we sent several emails to Mainstay.

Great location, terrible check in
After driving for several hours, the check-in was terrible. The front lock didn't open; a resident of the building had to let us in. They also confirmed that there have been issues with the lock box. Once we got to the room, we couldn't open the door as the instructions were not correct. After a few calls, we did get in. We also were instructed to get the other key fob from the other door, but the code was wrong to get into the lock box. Another call. The apartment was not very clean; the vents where filthy.The kitchen was not equipped at all for 4 people; there was not enough silverware or plates. Luckily, we had brought our own. It is a warehouse, and noise is an issue. The location was good; it is great for walking to museums and a couple of good restaurants just a few blocks away. There is a great parking garage across the street.

Quick long weekend stay
Great location, lots of restaurants around in walking distance. Walls are crazy thin-so could hear conversations and a poor barking dog....all night long. Not the property's fault but good to know of if you are light sleeper. Would totally stay again great location!

Easy stay!
The location is great! We had an event at the convention center and it was an easy walk from the rental. Many restaurants in walking distance. We felt there was plenty of linens and towels especially because there's a washer and dryer in the unit. Everything was exceptionally clean and beautifully decorated . The only thing that would have improved the stay would be if there were two couches and tvs in the bedrooms. We would stay again!

Richmond Gem
We stayed over a long weekend for a wedding in Richmond. This property was a delight. Beautifully decorated, fully functioning kitchen, 2 1/2 baths (which is important when three adult women are getting ready for the same event). Wonderful location close to Perly's Diner for breakfast. Overnight parking in the garage down the block was super affordable ($7 per day). Can't rave enough about this propery. If we find ourselves in Richmond again, I'll definitely book again.

Good place!
It's a good place to stay and accurately listed. It's a little dim inside compared to the pictures but overall a good place. I didn't like that you can hear all of the running water every time you flush a toilet but it wasn't terrible for a Richmond. Worth the price if you are considering it.
