While they say it’s under renovation the room was not updated that we stayed in. Biggest issues: Late night folks outside was very loud, drunks, etc. no fridge in room (was the largest and guess nicest) and the best part was the woman at the front desk on checkin said we’re not allowed to have a fridge without me even asking. Never had that said to me at a hotel. Plus side: Was the cheapest near the convention center at last min. Lots of food options around.

We stay in the Berkley when visiting Richmond. The hotel is pleasant and has a charm about it. Very good location for dining and seeing the sites. The hotel is going through an upgrade which is due as the carpeting in our room needed changing. We will continue to visit this establishment as it works for us.

Quilt Show Hotel

The hotel is very old but very nice inside everything was clean. They are remodeling was very disappointed because everything they said they had on the hotels.com. They did not have. They did not have a gym that we could use. They did not have breakfast lunch or dinner except for on certain days and we still didn't know what those were Was difficult to find a breakfast spot. The hotel itself was very comfortable. The staff was very friendly and very attentive. The rooms were very clean. It was close to the convention center, which is where we were going.
