Southside Hotel Guide - Romantic Hotels in Southside, Richmond

"PROS: The area is cute, walkable to buses, and there’s a sweet lobby kitty. The building is historic, with nice architecture. One front desk staff member was awesome, but the others during our stay were a bit less friendly. None were rude or unprofessional. They gave us fresh washcloths when they weren’t able to clean the room. CONS: The walls are so thin, we could hear all of our neighbors’ conversations, even though they were speaking in a normal voice. Our upstairs neighbors dropped their luggage (presumably) on the floor late at night and it was so loud my partner and I both jumped. We could hear their conversations clearly as well. The furniture, wallpaper, and carpet were well past their prime, and were perhaps last updated decades ago. The sink was cracked, and it took several minutes for the hot water to get warm enough to shower each time. The room ceiling had a crack across it. The old wooden baseboards, doors, and molding appeared as though they had been painted over dozens and dozens of times and still seemed to be aging poorly underneath. One day we asked if we could get our room cleaned even though it was around 1pm; they told us it was probably too late, and indeed, they were not able to get to it. The TV had live channels but no streaming. There’s no gym, pool, or onsite parking. The only amenities were Wi-Fi, a hairdryer, and Keurig. It’s definitely not up to par with other similarly priced accommodations. I suspect it gets by mainly on the historic charm."

"Hotel was dirty. Our bed sheets were nasty & and room was very unclean. It was also way overpriced and they over charge for parking. Also, we had dinner charges on our hill and never ate there. "
