Downtown Living in Richmond's Amazing Shockoe Bottom

There where used bandaids on the nightstand when I checked in which left a bad taste in my mouth :/

The place itself was comfortable and cozy. Warm enough, and the temp controls worked well when needed. Keurig coffee maker and so-so shower ( I like more pressure from the showerhead, but that's me ) Enough dishes and supplies although sugar for the coffee would have been appreciated. The problem is the LOCATION. As others have said, there IS ONLY street parking, 1st come 1st served. SO that means you can park free from 8pm to 8am, IF you can fin a spot. Otherwise it's the lot next to the bulding for parking, and get ready to pay about 25 for overnight.There's a LOT of noise outside (yes, even now in winter) and because the bedroom window is next to the parking lot, noise and bright lights of people parking and idling their cars will fill that room with light til the wee hours.

Was I great place to stay! Very responsive and gave all the info you need to make the trip and stay easy!

Perfect size and amenities in an amazing locatioin for someone visiting home on an in and out trip!

This is a great location if you want a combination of touristy attractions and local dining/nightlife. Be aware that the street and parking lot outside will be active late into the night on weekends, but if you plan to go out yourself, you can’t ask for a better spot.

The property was pretty clean, however, the ceiling fans need to be cleaned, the heater vent needs cleaning. The lamp in the bedroom was broken.My biggest complaint was the noise from midnight to 2:30 am!!!! Large young crowd, fighting, loud blaring music, tried calling police without success. This happened Friday and Saturday nights. Felt like I was in a war zone! I truly thought there was going to be gun fire and was very concerned for our safety.

Loved it!

Don't use parking lot next door. Saturday we were awoken by gun shots, and our parked vehicle was hit 4 times. We received a police report. The only bedroom window faces the lot this occured in. It could have easily be us that was hit with the shot as well

My biggest complaints would be that there were dirty dishes in the cupboards so I ended up washing most of them before using them. There were several lights out or not working in the apartment. The kitchen is very small which is okay but not well pictured in the listing. No extra toilet paper just the single half roll you get when arriving. The ‘free’ parking is at max two spaces in front of the building. Which were always full. The parking lot next to it is very dirty, broken glass and full of 2am party folk. There are no dish towels either. But other than those things everything was acceptable, I think the cleaning fee is ridiculous as the place was not clean. Being the dishes, clothes drawers, and this mysterious pile of goop and hair next to the bed.

Host was excellent, property was clean, no complaints about the stay except the location. Apartment has two windows at ground level that are right against a public parking lot that seems to be some sort of local hangout spot. Both nights we stayed there was loud music (shaking the window frame loud) right outside the window, once until about 4am. If you’re into the night life and need a place to crash during the day would highly recommend, but would not recommend if you like sleeping before the wee hours of the morning.

My partner and I and our dog stayed here Saturday-Monday for a NASCAR race in Richmond. We were nervous at first because we didn’t know if there would be an area to take our dog out right in the middle of the city, but quickly found a grass area. The apartment os small but cozy and had everything we needed. The fromt door can be kinda difficult sometimes but we always got it open. The only concerning thing was we found leftover medication and a dirty sock near the washer so maybe it wasn’t cleaned thoroughly before we got there. Overall it was a nice stay and we would do it again.

We enjoyed our stay in Shockoe Bottom. It was the perfect location for us. The apartment was comfortable, clean and equipped with just the basics.

Overall, it was fun staying in the heart of Shockoe Bottom in an historic building. The building has hosted a ton of well known musical groups for example. Do be aware, however, that you will likely need to pay each night to park your car in the lot next door.

The property was clean and cozy, and communication with the property manager was easy. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a place in downtown Richmond!

Clean and comfortable. Walking distance to tons of small shops and good restaurants. The property manager was quick to respond to any questions and had great communication. The only issue we had is that there is a (paid) parking lot right next door to the property and things get extremely noisy at night. After the bars let out, about 2AM, the lot basically becomes a tailgate party full of drunk, loud and rude people. It got so loud that we attempted to leave the lofts at 2:30am to head home, but our car that we had parked in that lot was blocked in by people who were illegally parked there. After some sketchy confrontations, and calling the towing company to remove vehicles, we were finally able to leave. Although the paid parking is convenient to those renting this property, please beware.
