Not sure how this property was listed on VRBO. It was a shared space. The owners lived upstairs and were present the whole time we were there. The rental space was a basement they have somewhat converted into an apartment.
However , there was no lock on the door to the basement so no way to prevent anyone from walking down the stairs at any point.
Also, there is no private entrance to the basement. To enter, we walked in through the front door where we saw the homeowners in their kitchen. There was an entrance through a back patio but no walkway to access that entrance from the front of the house.
It says in the listing there are multiple beds but there really is only one bed and a large couch that doesnât pull out. There are some air mattresses in the closet but that was not mentioned in the listing.
We were in Richmond for the Richmond marathon and had a last minute cancellation so had to book this the day before. It was definitely not as advertised but we didnât have any choice since it was last minute and no other rentals were available. (The Richmond Marathon is large and all rentals were booked).
My teenage son and I stayed here for a 4 day swim meet at SwimRva which was conveniently about 5 minutes away. The basement apartment was very clean and extremely well put put together!. The apartment was comfortable and my son certainly enjoyed the video games on the giant tv! Sharon was extremely communicative and even left out snacks for us every morning! I would highly recommend this property!
