Not for everyone.

The photos in the listing are generous. The unit is in below average condition. If there are guests upstairs, you can hear them well, especially if they are up and playing music between 1:00 am and 6:00 am. Fine location for a party get away. Poor experience.

Close to many great bars, restaurants, and coffee shops but still a quiet and comfortable location. The available parking out back was a great bonus.

Well located, cozy spot

Place is as advertised. Great location near VCU, close to good restaurants, walkable to so many things. Exactly what my wife and I needed for one night while in town for the Richmond Marathon. Check-in and responsiveness from host was great throughout our short stay. Only drawback was the premium pricing we paid due to the marathon.

cozy and sweet

We loved staying here! It was lovely eating dinner on the back deck. I slept in the front room on the comfy day bed while my parents took the bedroom - it was easy to share space and fun to be downtown!

Great location, good space for up to 4

The apartment is larger than it looks in the picture. It’s a bit dark except for the living room/bedroom but comfortable for a family of 4. It was well equipped and clean. The location is perfect. The only downside was the noisy guests in the apartment above (fortunately we spent most of the day out so we only heard them for a short time)

Great place but a little tired

Great host, convenient locations, and large space with nice accommodations. I removed a star because the interior hall needs painting and the exterior is a bit run down. None of this can be seen from the photos so our initial reaction from this was worry, but it was a delightful stay.

Fan gem

This lovely, immaculate, well stocked property was conveniently located to VCU as well as other popular destinations in the Fan. Bed was comfortable, appliances worked well, and parking was easy. Hosts were very easy to communicate with. We would definitely stay again!

A great location in The Fan

A wonderful place to immerse yourself in Richmond’s historic Fan District. Very nice first floor accommodations with off-street parking (a must) with so many great places to eat and explore without getting into your car. Very comfortable living area with a nice little sitting area out back. A little gem.

Wonderful, Easy, and Relaxing Place

Check in process was very easy and the house is located in a very good location. There were two well sized rooms and a kitchen along with a back patio. And siting space in the hallway! The master bedroom is very comfortably and well decorated. The kitchen fully functional and stocked with kitchen utensils. Overall stay was very nice and I would highly recommend. The owner was also very kind and accommodating!!!

Quick Stayover

We came into town at 4pm with our two kids and dog to stay over the weekend after Thanksgiving. We found a very clean apartment that was exactly as described. Private parking was a plus. Easy to hear people staying over in apartment above but they quieted down come bedtime. Thanks for a great stay, the snacks were very much appreciated for my hungry kiddos!

Convenient Location

My brother and I stayed here and we had all our needs met. The place was clean and beds and linens were comfortable. We were supplied coffee, tea, snacks, water, and even some wine! It's a little weird with the couch and TV being in one bedroom but we knew that ahead of time and it worked fine for us. Loved having the parking in the back so I didn't have to deal with street parking, and they were even able to accommodate our request for an earlier check in.
