The feel of old Richmond with a dishwasher and a heat pump.
This house is the 2nd floor of an end unit townhouse, very recently outfitted with quality appliances and a very effective heater (it was in the high 20s at night). As with many older homes there are still the minor inconveniences (or delightful quirks) that may impact the stay of those who are expecting hotel-level ease of operation. Our old short-legged dog had a difficult time with both sets of stairs. Otherwise, the four humans slept well on comfortable beds and we managed cooking and storing food in the large kitchen, although it is a little short on counter and table space. We felt safe in the neighborhood, shared a fenced-in back yard with downstairs neighbors, and parked on the greenspace lot between us and the church next door. There are chairs on the covered back porch and chairs in the back yard. The house came equipped with everything we needed except food - paper towels, extra toilet paper, dryer sheets, laundry pods, dishwasher pods, dog-waste bags, coffee/espresso machine w/K-cups, a toaster, pots, pans, dishes, silverware, bottled water (although the tap water tasted delicious), fast wifi, extra blankets - really, everything. The location is very close to downtown and walkable to several of Richmond's fine parks. We had a delightful stay.
