Spring Break stop in Richmond

We decided to have a quick stop in Richmond on our Spring Break travels and found comfortable lodging in this historic and well preserved listing. The amenities were as described, though we didn’t partake in the laundry that was located in the e basement. We had a short block and a half walk to the main historic strip, several great eateries and sweet shops for dessert. The next day was spent exploring the nearby science museum, which was only a 7 minute drive.

Cannot beat the location - so close to Cary St. with all the shops and eateries! Larger than we expected, comfortable and clean. Nicely appointed kitchen. Spacious bathroom. Bonus - super short walk to grocery and drug store. Great “home base” for a visit to Richmond.

Stay in Richmond

The property itself is wonderful and was perfectly located. It is well appointed. My only problem (which was huge) was that upon arrival the city of Richmond was completely without water and therefore the rental had no functioning toilet, shower or kitchen. I asked but was never offered even a partial refund for this enormous inconvenience. I had to travel 40 miles outside of the city just to buy 10 gallons of water just to flush the toilet. If there had not been a water problem I would have given this property 5 stars.

Very impressed with everything about this property. Five stars, will be staying again. Loved that it’s dog friendly and the fenced in yard was perfect. The hosts surpassed our expectations by providing toiletries as well as a bottle of wine, bottled water and snacks. Walking around Cary town was such fun and we were in the perfect location to not need to drive hardly at all.

Wonderful Stay in Carytown!

This was a wonderful location near downtown Richmond and Carytown. The listing was just a little deceiving with no living room space. It is noted in upper case but I some how glanced over it. The big TV is in the room with the bunk beds. It worked out for the kids to watch Netflix or YouTube on their own! My husband and I enjoyed watching Netflix on our personal device in bed. So not a huge deal. We couldn’t find the outside trash cans to throw away our dog bags or trash. The warm welcome with waters, snacks and wine was a great touch! Having a shared back yard was fun for the dogs. Be aware it is an upstairs unit. I loved the style and decor. Beds were super comfy. Thank you for allowing us to stay in your house! It was a great experience! I would definitely stay again!

Second Stay In Older Carytown Townhome

We stayed in this townhome last Christmas and liked it so much, we decided to stay there again this year. I'll quickly list the CONS and PROS, but I want to put up front we would have no hesitancy staying there again. However, I reserve five star reviews for VRBO properties that check all of the boxes. Do not consider a four star rating to mean it's not worth renting: CONS - The townhome is older so it has issues with heating. The vents are located in the ceiling rather than the floor, so it can get a bit cold, especially if you have the record freeze we had last year. Further, there is a large open space leading from the street to stairs that tends to get very cold, especially if the downstairs apartment is not heated. There are also multiple apartments on this property. You will see and hear other tenants and their animals if they are staying there with you. As mentioned, the property is a older (turn of the centure) and there's a lot of rotting wood and chipped paint. Only one bathroom. Makes it tough on a family of five. PROS - Can't beat the location. One block from the shops and restaurants of Carytown, plus multiple grocery stores and pharmacies within easy walking distance. The bed in the master bedroom is huge and very comfortable. Lots of closet space in there, too. Kitchen has a gas stove which is fantastic. The owner, Mei, and her partner are extremely responsive to issues and in communicating with you. They are super nice people and check out was a breeze. Again, I know everyone wants a five star rating, but I believe in honesty. This is a great townhome in a fantastic location, but it does suffer a bit from the fact it is an older building. Regardless, we would not hesitate to stay there again if allowed.

Will improve with time

This property was ok. It met our bare minimum needs but the owners were very helpful and quick to respond. Initially, we were lacking the basics that you would expect in a kitchen such as a can opener, peeler, measuring cups, pot holders, scissors, etc. When brought to the attention of the owner, she did respond quickly and purchased most of those items. She was very pleasant to deal with. The place was reasonably clean but could use some freshening up with paint as it is showing signs of wear. Location was nice- lots of conveniences in walking distance. The on street parking was only for a day as the city put up tow away signs due to road work the day after we arrived. Not the fault of the owner of course, but it did make parking less convenient.

Incredible location and great beds

The Carytown location was amazing, plenty of shopping and dining options right around the corner. Also, it's an easy walk to Scott's Addition and the ton of breweries out that way. A short drive to Topgolf. No shortage of things to do. The rental was very comfortable for 6 people and could have easily fit a 7th. All of the beds were very comfortable. Amenities like soap, shampoo, conditioner, and coffee were all a nice touch. The host, Mei, was very welcoming and communicative. All around great!
