Rating & Review Keseluruhan A house full of steel balls and games

A great place for quick and comfortable stop on my way from NC on my way home to NY. And vintage pinball games!!!

Initially I thought it would be a great idea to stay at a place given the pinball machines and games cause I like them.. but I was aware that this may not be a good idea. The machines are quite loud so if you need some quietness and it is not as if the sleeping rooms are far from the machines, you run the risk of booking with other people who enjoy the games, and they play them and have fun. I could have dealt with that but the futon mattress or cushion was too much for me to bear. Driving 8hrs to arrive only to an uncomfortable bed, I couldn’t do it another night. Then being awaken early in the morning by pinball machines was startling and jarring. So I just left and forfeited my reservation. Some caveats: if you rent the whole house, that would probably be fun, or rent the room with a bed and not futon, or if you’re young and don’t mine late night noise or activities, then the place might suit you. For me, this wasn’t suited for me.

I stay here every time I come to Richmond for business. It always feels like I'm coming home.

We stayed at pinball Petes located in Richmond Virginia. It was a cool place that contained over 15 pinballs and other types of gains. It was close to mainstream venues, but took away in a picturesque neighborhood very peaceful and calm and safe. We enjoy being able to relax.

Best bnb i have ever stayed in!

This is the most fun place to stay that I know. The owner is responsive and friendly, the cat (who only lives outside) is so lovely. The antique pinball machine collection is one of the best I’ve ever seen, and it’s a chance of a lifetime to play. Kitchen is well stocked and beds are comfy. This place is exceptional!

I love this place! The owner is amazing, the pinball machines a lifetime memory experience. I sincerely hope that I have a chance to stay here again soon!!

This is our second stay, and it's just as great as before! The beds are comfy, selection of breakfast is great, the manager communicates extremely well, the games are fun, location is safe and convenient, and the old cat is very friendly. Despite what someone else said, I have never seen a cat hair or any trace of the friendly little cat anywhere inside the house. I hope my kid gets into college here, so I have an excuse to come stay here more often. lol

The host couldn’t have been nicer. House is a museum of pinball machines that you can play!! Everything was spotlessly clean and light breakfast is available. I’ll definitely return.

The pinball machines were very unique. This is my first BNB so I have nothing else for a comparison..

Beware if you have cat allergies. While owner claims his cat is an “outdoor” pet the home interior - at least every public apace and the single room - are permeated with cat dander. If this is at all a health issue avoid this property. For persons with moderate or severe allergic responses to dander it poses a serious health problem.

Unique and fun place to stay in Richmond. Especially nice if you are traveling with folks that really love pinball. Clean, accommodating, quiet neighborhood. Game play is included in the price of your stay, there must have been 25 machines.

Great place, unique and nostalgic, pinball machines were fun, check in smooth and easy, terrific communication by owner

Ive never experienced a bnb quite like Pinball Pete's. Nostalgic pinball machines everywhere set on free play. Got the pleasure to meet the man himself. Great guy. The house was extremely clean as well as free snacks and in a good neighborhood. Highly recommend this establishment. 10 stars if i could.

A great house, and a great host. If you love pinball and classic gaming consoles, you may find it difficult to work up the motivation to leave. The old style pop machine full of local craft beers was a nice touch, too, and is the only machine in the house that requires quarters.

This is a quirky place that will Appel to lovers of pinball and other games. Robert was a gracious and thoughtful host. I’d been on the road for two weeks, and had a big day the day I left… so I did not make the most of the place because I was exhausted. Still kicking myself for not playing Elvira though.

Owner is an awesome person!

A fun and unique B&B just off 95 outside of Richmond. There are 3 smallish bedrooms and 16 working pinball machines which you can play non-stop for free. One room has a half bath, and the other two rooms share the full bathroom off the hall. Lots of fun if you like pinball or are traveling with teens. Full kitchen is available for your use, though breakfast food options are limited, but coffee is top-rate.

The check in was easy, room very clean. My show dogs and I felt welcome. I felt much safer than in a hotel.

Peaceful spot in the country. My third stay! It’s like a home away from home
