"The houseboat was exactly as described and met as well as exceeding my expectations. Very peaceful, overlooking the river. The bed was comfortable and I love every minute of our stay, just wish it had been longer. We met Capt. Ron on our last night. He is a very nice man and loved talking with him. I hope to return in the future. Barbara and Ben"

Hyatt Place Richmond Airport

Hyatt Place Richmond Airport

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel was really nice for our last minute stay after our flight was delayed. It was super close to the airport and had a free shuttle you could sign up for to take you to the airport. There was a Target/CVS next door which was very convenient as well. The room was very clean though it was little dark so if you have trouble seeing in dim light it might not be the best choice. Overall a great stay though!"
