Graduate by Hilton Richmond
Hotel is nice and clean/modern and the location is convenient. Valet, check-in staff, and breakfast staff were all very courteous. Rooms are spacious and I got an unsolicited upgrade to a larger room, which was nice, Room amenities could be nicer, especially the bathroom amenities.

Drury Plaza Hotel Richmond

She spent ample time in there. When I went back out after going in my room, she was still cleaning. Outstanding ...
