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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

I stayed here one night and loved it so much I booked again! I have to add to my previous review; the fans in the bedrooms were an amazing touch! They are bulky to pack, intend to use white noise apps when traveling and it’s just not the same. The lovely touches in the comfortable bedrooms only add to the overall comfort of a home away from home experience. Thanks Pinball Pete, I will be booking again soon and many times in the future!

I had a great stay at Pinball Pete’s! He had every amenity you could think of; from coffee and creamer to a fully stocked fridge full of several types of bagels and spreads, fruit, and waffles. And don’t get me started on the pinball games, how fun!! (Elvira was my favorite.) I also enjoyed the patio to have a drink in there evening and coffee in the morning. I’ll definitely be staying here again, thank you!!

You will definitely want to leave aside plenty of time to actually explore the different pinball machines because there are so many—that was our mistake! Pete was very nice and knowledgeable and very passionate about the pinball machines. And the “greeter,” Kat, who was a very friendly kitty who walked over to us to say hi when we arrived, was very very adorable :) Very communicative and very detail-oriented made this experience very hospitable.

Robert was a nice person, I could tell he put a lot of work and effort into his house to make it to the best vacation home for the guests that decide to live with him. There were some bugs that I caught. So far I saw 4 crawling in some parts of his house. Robert said he’s never had a bug problem, but would keep an eye out for them. Overall my stay at his house was a 10/10.

We pulled in and we're immediately greeted by Kat the owner's Cat. It was easy to check in on our own. The house is very eclectic with memorabilia, vintage video games and the famous old steel ball Pinball Machines. Kitchen is well stocked with coffee and breakfast items. Everything was neat and clean for an old house. Very comfy stay as we were the only guests in this 3 Bed 1 (Shared) Bath. Living room and Small dining area in the kitchen. We elected for the King Bedroom and glad we did.
