The hotel is located in the center of Richmond, offering easy walking access to all historic sites. The rooms, set within the old stable walls, come with private bathrooms but lack basic amenities like a fridge or kettle. The service was attentive, with a welcoming drink upon arrival. However, the dining options were limited to coffee, tea, and pastries. The common areas are inviting, and the overall value for money is decent.

The hotel is ideally located in the center of Richmond, making it easy to walk to all the historic sites. The rooms have a unique charm with walls that hint at the old stable, and the separate toilet from the bathroom adds convenience. Despite the heater being on full blast at times, the room ambiance is cozy. The service is attentive, with waiters prompt at the table and a welcoming drink adding a nice touch. Overall, the hotel provides a comfortable stay with a few minor inconveniences.
