5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 June 2013 NEW

We were visiting Virginia Beach for the Boardwalk Art Show so wanted an inexpensive oceanfront hotel to be close to it. We couldn't believe the rate at this hotel was so reasonable when it had such great TA reviews! It lived up to expectations and we found the staff particularly friendly and helpful. On arrival, it was about 97F outside... More

Our experience at this hotel was great! The room was newly renovated and all of the furniture seemed brand new. The balcony had a great view of the beach, ocean, and boardwalk. The pool was always clean and very warm, which was great after swimming in the cold ocean. The free bikes worked well and saved us tons of money... More

Thank you so much for your kindness! We are very pleased you enjoyed the hotel and took advantage of all we have to offer. The free bikes really do add great value and savings to our guest's stay; even if they only use them once or twice in a 3 or 4 night visit. It seems like this property suits... More

I was looking for more affordable place to stay in Virginia Beach then previous hotels I have visited. I thought such a good rating on TripAdvisor that I decided to stay at the Econo Lodge. The room was old and very dirty. I store a roach in the corner of the bedroom and had ants falling all around the room.... More

We are pleased to report that an inspection of every room by our housekeeping and maintenance staff has turned up no evidence of insects. We... More

I gave this hotel five stars last year. We just returned from a five-day stay over Memorial Day weekend, and I'm giving it another five star rating. Fabulous staff, great location, excellent value. A few nitpicks: I have to agree with the reviewer below that the bikes look ratty, particularly the kids' bikes. The seats were all torn up, and... More

This is only a 3 level property, so in comparison to a lot of the other places to stay on Virginia Beach it is small. I love everything about this hotel.

Second time we've stayed here in 3 years. This is a basic motel BUT, the staff and parking speak volumes. We checked in late around 11pm and the General Manager, Leonard, was still working the desk. Very polite and friendly. One of the BEST things about this motel is the parking. One space for every room and they have an... More

When reviewing a property like this that has a good to excellent circle rating and many reviews, what do I say that hasn’t already been said many times before? For me, what I look for in this circumstance is the most recent reviews to see whether the property continues to earn positive reviews. Therefore I’ll provide this summary review. When... More

If you like a dirty, musty/smokey smelling hotel room at the Oceanfront then ask for Room Number 335. You can also find ants crossing the threshhold to the bathroom. The bed was so soft that we both woke up with back aches. The toilet bowl is exceptionally low to the floor and the water level is very high. This is... More
