What guests think

Reviews of Quality Inn Chester - South Richmond describe a budget stop with very mixed experiences, where some guests find clean, quiet rooms and convenient highway access, while many report strong odors, dated spaces, and maintenance problems affecting comfort and safety.

Cleanliness concerns are common, including smoke or mildew smells, stained linens, and reports of bugs or roaches.

Staff interactions range from polite and helpful to inconsistent, with slow or unprofessional moments noted. Expect a basic, low-cost stay with trade-offs.

It was a bargain compared to other places- but could have been up front that the fitness center and pool are both closed and unusable. In need of renovations which are underway. Room hadn’t been vacuumed but there weren’t any bugs. Located next to the highway so even with earplugs the noise of engines woke me up a lot.

The night front desk person was friendly, and check in was smooth. When we reached the room, we were greeted by the smell of smoke. Light switches didn’t seem to work, but we eventually figured them out. Some bulbs were out. One wall lamp was partially hanging out of the wall. Everything seemed clean. My wife said she killed a couple bugs. The bed was comfortable enough. The hotel was quiet. The area was nice, being located far enough south of Richmond and far enough off of I-95. Breakfast was sparse: waffles, 2 types of cereal, yogurt, coffee, milk. There was one apple in the dish, and no hot tea for my wife. Although a pool was pictured on the website, it was empty with yellow barrier tape around. Overall, disappointing. Might do for a quick overnight, but two nights was too much.

I went by the reviews indicating that the elevator was in working order which it was not! Thankfully I had seen where others had commented that it may or may not have been working and I requested a handicap accessible 1st floor room because I can’t do stairs. The room was not accessible but was on the 1st floor. The property itself looks to be a little run down but appears there are some improvements being made. The breakfast was pretty much waffles and juice. There was cereal but I saw no milk to go with it. Needless to say we had to eat out every morning which was not planned.

Booked this room for an overnight stop on a drive down south. I was looking for something cheap with a fitness center. This is not it! The gym is "closed for renovations," so it should be taken off the list of amenities. Room was clean, smell not great but to be expected. Water in shower and sink not so good. Receptionists were very polite and professional. Breakfast is waffles, cereal, and apples. Not great, not terrible.

Not a pleasant visit as the hotel upon entry was off. The smell of mold or water issue is super strong. Cleanliness was not apart of the hotel at all. The room was not cleaned, food and trash on floor. The door key did not work, no red or green light came on. Front desk changed battery and module and still did not work. No pool, under construction. No full breakfast as listed, just waffle and yogurts.

The hotel was under renovation, which is needed. Our room smelled of mold and wasn't clean. But since we were passing thru we stayed for one night. Breakfast wasn't good. Only woffles and bad coffee (couldn't finnish). The gym was full of stuff and closed. Wouldn't book again.

This property is a health hazard to all who stay here. The first arriving member of our party was given a room where the smoke detector had been removed, mold was all over the bathroom ceiling, semen stains on the floor, torn curtains, the television wasn't mounted, it merely rested against the wall, and the microwave was filthy (see pictures below). Given this is only the mold you can see...I'll leave it up to you as to whether you believe there may be mold you can't see. HOTELS.COM YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED FOR ALLOWING YOUR CUSTOMERS TO BE PLACED IN SUCH FILTH AND THEN DECLARING THE CUSTOMER DOESN'T DESERVE A REFUND WHEN THE HOTEL IS IN SUCH DISREPAIR!

Once I arrived with my children and we entered the room we found several beer cans under the bed . The room was dirty and hair was inside the bed . When I went to the front desk to ask for another room and showed photos the front desk server told me there wasn’t anything he could do he was there alone . The room smelled of animal urine and mold was on the ceiling of the restroom

I used a gift card to book this stay and am EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED! This place is a mess, it stinks, the rooms are TERRIBLE! Black mold in bathroom, no lighting in the rooms, I found countless teams from prior guest, the phone did not work, the side doors of the building have no locks anyone can come and go, I felt extremely unsafe and uncomfortable. The staff was the only decent thing in the building, very nice and friendly for check it and as you walk through. But I am very upset I wasted my gift card on this location!! For one night was over $100 and this property is MAYBE worth $59 a night!!!

This Quality Inn is in poor shape. We had a room facing the road (odd number rooms). We stayed on a Friday night and heard heavy bass music coming from somewhere in the area, Not sure if it was from someone in the building or from a nearby bar but it lasted until after midnight. Our room was on the third floor, wallpaper falling off around elevator and they tried to fix it with globs of silicon around up/down button. Room had soft sheets but squeaky mattress and lumpy pillows, curtains were ripped. For breakfast they had only a waffle maker, apples, yogurt, coffee, OJ, two types of cereal. Small tight bathrooms.

The first room I stayed in didn't have a working deadbolt. Almost every surface was dirty. It was on the first floor and right down the hall from the pool. I don't like being on the first floor because people tend to keep going by the room. The person at reception was reluctant to move me to another room after I mentioned that I felt unsafe with the deadbolt not working. He suggested I wait until someone to check the lock in the morning before deciding to move rooms. I pushed to get a new room with a working deadbolt. The second room I got, after bringing attention to the deadbolt, was clean but the latch on the door didn't work.

Only a one night stay. Stopped on the way to OBX. Tried to check in at 1:30. Desk clerk gave me a dirty look and said try closer to 3, why don’t you go get something to eat. I said thanks I’m not hungry. I Know check in is at 3 but this is the first time I have been turned away, we travel a lot. When we came back at 2:55 there was a line out the door. It took 30 minutes to check in. Pictures of the room were nothing like what we stayed in. We will not be stay there again. Travel through that area at least four times a year.

Never even checked into the room, . Construction going on with dry wall dust and trash all over. We requested to look at the room, they took us upstairs, we left out. They are not suitable to run a hotel during the construction as the amenities are false and the place just just terrible. The manager was so rude. They charged me the full 1 week but then reimbursed me for 5 nifhts. They charged me full price for one night and i never even checked. Never recommend to anyone.

This property was not what I expected at all. The property listed on the website that the pool was open however upon checking in, it was not open. I brought my grandkids and reserved this hotel for this purpose. The room was dirty and outdated. The fire alarm was pulled in the middle of the night and my grandkids could not go back to sleep. The hotel was not in a good/safe area, our hallway smelled like weed even though it was non-smoking and the noise kept my grandkids all night. We got no sleep. This was a disappointing stay to say the least
