    Awesome hotel. Very chill vibe. Check is desk is at the bar. Staff is great. Rooms are.. different. Really cool though. Brunch menu during the day. Chill music. Good place to pop in for a drink also. Pool table and other games in the lobby.

    cool urban vibe, nice lobby, good musician playing friendly front staff, Mellow was super cool. you check in at the bar. yes, the bar. they have a spare hallway closet with toothpaste, towels etc so you grab yourself played pool, chilled by the fireplace. lots of games to play room was smaller but neat, simple and practical. big pillows to recline on. aimed at a younger demographic but loads of diversity here. i gave it a 4 but changed it to a 5. Moxy is moxy...

    For parking there isn't valet - guests can park in the parking garage next to the hotel. You call this number to enter and when you exit you need to pay on your phone and then the gate will open. Hotel guest can only park on level 5-7! ( made my photos) $19 a night The lobby is loud and have karaoke at night ! There is a foosball table and also giant jenga to play! So definitely get ready to party it up if you want. I was also given a free drink ticket for my stay. Room -- well it's cute but nothing is comfortable . The cleanliness is probably my biggest complaint. Just not clean- pillows have smells and the comforter probably can't ever be washed. I mean the design of the room is great and very functional but that's about it. The lights - one you needed to pull out on top- took me forever to figure out how to turn off the light. The pillow is so flat and you don't have a bed frame back --- it's just the pillows as your back cushion. Anyhow - hallways are extremely dark !!! Maybe it's to just give it that ambiance ! But not my thing. It's definitely the cheapest you can find in downtown Richmond. One more street down --it's not the best neighborhood.

    Amazing experience here! From the moment we walked in everyone was so nice! Dominique is the BEST bartender ever!! Clean and inviting. Not sure why people complain about not knowing where to park, it is literally beside the hotel with clearly marked signs. I will be back!

    I was a lil skeptical cause reviews vary. But I ultimately decided cause I had Bonvoy points and for 1 night, I figured how bad could it be. I booked online via the Bonvoy app with no issue and although I thought I'd be arriving later, my room was ready when I arrived in spite of it being earlier than I specified. The young lady at the front desk was very nice. And so too was the gentleman filling the cookie jar and he informed me the snacks were free. The decor is funky, real chill. Great if you're a gamer or like an 80s baby. They have great and colorful seating nooks with tvs, pool table, etc. I almost flipped out when I saw an etch a sketch, lite bright and a Playstation. They have lots of games to keep you occupied so the lobby is a nice hangout with self serve tea and a self serve snack bar with at cost goodies. The bar is chill and not sure if everyone gets it but I got a free Drink tix. Rooms are modest, no closet but it fits the bill for a short stay. I love the stash closets on each floor so if you need toiletries, towels, blankets, etc, all available. I had a street view. The room was clean decor was cute, smart tv. I guess the only con is that floors are wooden so if anything drops, its noisy. This is not a vacay or top of the line luxury hotel but definitely on brand and not bad. Wifi is reliable so I was able to work, bed was comfy so I slept good and bathroom was clean. Bartender was sweet when I returned and redeemed my tix. She checked on me multiple times. I'd definitely stay again for a quick jaunt.

    A brief shower caused the whole bathroom floor to flood.

    Do not stay in Room 202!! This room is supposed to be ADA compliant and is the largest room in the hotel. However, there are several features that make this room inconvenient for able-bodied people, and an absolute MINEFIELD for anyone in a wheelchair. The shower has a seat and is accessible, but there is no design feature at all to keep the water from fully covering the bathroom floor. (The picture doesn't do it justice; water was pooling up to the door and behind the toilet.) There are thin gauzy curtains in the room's windows, and blinds behind those. But in order to close the blinds, my husband had to climb up into the windowsill and locate a button that caused the blinds to electronically shut. Who designed this space?!?! The front desk team was helpful and this was not their fault. There were other things, too. The tv remote was broken; not typically something I'd notice, but the tv was on when we entered the room, so we had to get a new remote to turn it OFF. There was no hand soap, and the front desk attendant at first sent me to a supply closet to get some, but no soap was there, so she had to grab some from an empty room. By the time I actually got to settle down and enjoy rest, I was tired. It's a fun hotel close to a lot of things, but I would trade fun for basic design features that work really well. It's like the Frontier Airlines of hotels, maybe? Don't want to point this toward the staff because they were really helpful.

    Very hipster vibe. Rooms are small, but efficient. Hallways have no natural light and the lighting fixtures are set to 'mood' instead of illumination. My first contact with Moxy staff was the front desk person telling me that there would be a $40 charge put on my credit card. This should have been stated as a "hold" (same difference, but does not freak out the customer). No remote control for the TV in the room, it took about 3 hours for the front desk to get one. The bed sheets were not changed from the previous person's stay as there were blood stains on the side of the bed that I was not sleeping on, and thus not discovered until the day I was leaving. While it was March, it was unseasonably warm during my stay (80-degree days). There was no way to get the AC on or even the fan to circulate the outside air, so it was hot and stuffy in the room. The bartender on Saturday night was not a multi-tasker. When a black couple was trying to get her attention, instead of acknowledging them and asking them to wait, she ignored them. They said "excuse me" three times and finally said "we see how it is" and walked off. I am not sure if it was a race issue or simply not able to handle multiple things at once. Not a good scene in either case.

The cucumber sandwiches were on brown bread??? The chicken salad sandwiches were bland and boring and were served on regular thick white bread. The desserts also lacked sparkle. The best were the tiny chocolate mousse tart, and the tiny rectangular fruit tart. The macrons were delicious and probably the best thing about the tea. However, the rectangular fruit tart did not have an expected glaze of apricot jam as is traditional. There were two cakes. One was chocolate, which was very fudgy and moist however, it really could have used a pinch of salt to bring its profile up to delicious. The other cake was a slice of either apple or banana??? Flavor so faint I couldn't tell. Neither of those desserts had frosting so can they really be called cake? There was a sugar cookie but I gave it to My friend so I can't speak to how it was. There was this little chocolate thing that was difficult to ascertain what it was supposed to be. I think it was supposed to represent hot chocolate with peppermint and marshmallows, but despite the peppermint and the tiny marshmallows, it was lackluster. The entire experience could have improved with printed menus with descriptions of what we had. There were two teas offered, the Jefferson and the Richmond blend. I had the Richmond blend. It was so splendid that I ordered some from their supplier. Overall, I was terribly disappointed. The beautiful venue had a slight effect on improving the overall experience.

The toilet ran after flushing unless I went back and gave the handle a little jiggle. There were no electrical outlets in the bathroom -- none! I had to plug in my electric toothbrush on one of the nightstands. There was a double electrical outlet at the desk, but the refrigerator plug covered part of the second outlet, so I had to unplug the refrigerator to plug in my laptop. (Fortunately, I had no need for the fridge.) The room was chilly when I got there, but I couldn't figure out how to set the HVAC for heat. The only plus was that the bed was very comfortable. But that was not enough to make up for all the other shortcomings. I do not recommend this hotel. It is very expensive and not anywhere near worth it.

Both were very cozy, with lots of amenities, such as bathrobes, bottled water, and coffee pot/tea in the room. The breakfast in the morning is phenomenal. It is made to order, with eggs, bacon, various rolls, oatmeal, coffee, etc. and served in the house's dining room. The staff is absolutely lovely and so welcoming. Another added bonus is that they provide tickets for admission to the special exhibit at the VMFA, as well as passes to get a free drink in their cafeteria. Love, love, LOVE this place. Highly recommend!

I called the front desk and no answer. We sprayed air freshener to try to cover it up. The manager said he would take care of the bad breakfast from 2 days ago. I'll see tomorrow if that is the case. We were given coffee tokens to be used in the lobby at the in house restaurant and I do appreciate that. The staff have all been very kind. No complaints about them. In fact they have gone out of their way to please us and I appreciate that as well. This smoking smell is a lot though. If/when I return to Richmond, I wouldn't select the Graduate at a top place to stay again. All in all, it has been an okay stay but that smoking smell has been too much.

It's within walking distance of Richmond's greatest museums as well as the popular Carytown neighborhood where we spent much of our visit. When we arrived, Sean and Polly weren't at home, but we were provided with an access code to get in to the guest rooms. We were absolutely floored when we walked in. The One only has two guest rooms, which makes it the perfect place for privacy. Our room, The Dream Suite, is located at the top of the stairs and is beautifully decorated in shades of deep red. My only very minor gripe is that the bathrooms are no located "en suite." Instead, they are directly outside the rooms. So while each bedroom does have its own bathroom, you do need to leave your room to get to it. Not a huge deal since there are only two guest rooms...but you can't traipse to the bathroom naked at 2am, either! The parlor is located across the hall from the guest rooms and is not only a comfortable lounge spot, but is also stocked full of snacks and beverages. This is also where continental breakfast is served in the morning. The spread is pretty standard- muffins, bagels, cereal, etc. It didn't particularly suit my fancy (way too carb-heavy), but it's the type of breakfast my boyfriend loves. Sean and Polly were fantastic hosts; very attentive and friendly. Honestly, they were the best B&B owners I have ever interacted with. You can tell that they truly love what they do. We can't wait to go back to Richmond to spend another night at The One. Thanks to Polly and Sean for a great stay!

Room was a suite with separate sitting room, mini fridge, microwave and bathroom. Bed was very comfy. Breakfast was free (and one of the selling points we looked for when booking) from 6:30am-9:30am and consisted of usual fare: Omelets, pancakes, sausage, cereal, bagels/muffins, yogurt, fruit and juices/coffee. Only real downside is its not the most up to date room wise and felt kind of cold with large industrial doors. Not a huge issue for us, but others might knock it. Parking is also a bit of a tight squeeze, located under the hotel on the ground and level 1. We drive a sedan and had some issues getting out of the car with other cars/SUVs parked close. Doable but it could use respacing.
