We stayed at the Richard Johnston Inn in “The Loft” for one night while on a trip through DC & Virginia. The loft was a lovely room with the bed upstairs. Breakfast was served at 9 AM and it was delicious. The location of the Inn is perfect. It’s right downtown across the street from the trolley tour which I highly recommend. We did not realize the Inn allows dogs. We are not against dogs. However, the dog below us was barking a lot! Every time the owners left to go eat dinner or sightsee we had to listen to it. It was very annoying. As well, there is a restaurant on the next block that played music on Friday night. It was very loud and kept us up until midnight. That is not the fault of the Inn. I’m deducting a star because of the dog and the couch was old and we felt itchy while sitting on it, and received some bites on our legs either from fleas in the carpet or something else That we couldn’t identify. Marissa greeted us with a smile and had a friendly demeanor, and gave us suggestions on where to visit in town. She was lovely if you get to interact with her.
