Customer service is a 15/10. Abdul went out of his way to help me with my animals otherwise I would’ve been SOL. If you’re in a pinch, Abdul will go above and beyond.🙏🏼

The general manager is very disrespectful and rude. Also, there seems to be ZERO staff on site when calling the front desk. I’m a current guest, and even calling the direct line I have to leave numerous voicemails until I hear back. I planned to book this hotel for 6 weeks for a work assignment - I am one week in and switching hotels. The only good quality is proximity to the highway for commuters. Do not stay here.

My mom and I are in Richmond VA South. Abdoul check us in last night. He was also here tonight when we came in. My mom has Alzheimer’s dementia. Abdoul was very attentive and empathetic to the situation. He went above and beyond the call of duty. Today, I was in VCU hospital with my mom. There were no parking spaces close to the door when we returned so I brought my mom into the lobby while I go park the car. YES! Abdoul did not disappoint. i will be staying here when I am in town. Thank you sir for you humble hospitality ♥️ oh and the room was clean. We are very pleased.
