“This Richmond guest house impressed me with its warm, helpful staff and convenient location near the station. I found the rooms spacious and comfortable, and the inclusion of breakfast items in the room is a thoughtful touch. Add to this the lively pub atmosphere with its Thai/Cambodian food and live music, and I believe it's a great choice for a stay in the area.”
