Quirk Hotel May Be Richmond's Most Creative Place to Stay

Lauren and Laurita explore the Quirk Hotel in Richmond, Virginia's Arts District. The building was originally one of Richmond's high-end department stores but Katie Ukrop and her husband converted it to a hotel and art gallery. Art from Richmond artists is featured throughout the property including incredible murals in many of the guest rooms. The colorful vibe is perfect for the neighborhood.
