"The staff at the front desk were nice and helpful. Housekeepers not so much. Elevator was down, side door of building left open all day and night, unsafe. Hallways smelled like cigarettes, no pool no breakfast. One of our wash clothes had a stain. The pull out bed in the room had crumbs and what looked like party decor underneath so clearly those aren’t being cleaned properly. Overall ok hotel however would not stay there again."

Drury Plaza Hotel Richmond

10/10 Excellent

"This property was wonderful. They served a delicious free dinner with 3 complimentary drinks and half priced desserts. In the morning we had a great hot breakfast buffet. The staff were all kind and helpful. We found out this is a family owned hotel and it shows in all the details. The bed was comfortable and the room was also nicely decorated. A great stay!!!!"
