“Don't stay here”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 September 2011
3
people found this review helpful

My family and I stayed at the Econo Lodge Oceanfront in Virginia Beach for 3 nights in September 2011. I will never stay there again and would discourage anyone else from doing so. The exhaust fan in the bathroom was half hanging out of the ceiling and looked like it had not been cleaned since it was installed. If you walked on the carpet with bare feet for a few moments your feet would be totally black on the bottom. The balcony was full of water that dripped throught the floor of the balcony on the floor above us so we were not able to enjoy sitting out there at all. The box springs and mattresses were terrible not to mention that when we looked at the end of the beds when the sheets were removed, the mattresses were filthy. This room was not cheap and, although I didn't expect luxury, I did expect a clean and comfortable room. I will never stay there again and I will tell anyone I know who is traveling to Virginia Beach to avoid this hotel at all costs.

“Wonderful Staff!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 September 2011

My husband, mother, stepfather, and I all shared one room for Labor Day weekend as this was the best price I could find for an ocean front hotel over a holiday weekend. There were a few issues with the room (safe didn't work, tub didn't drain) but when we mentioned to them to the front desk, everything was fixed immediately. The staff was so nice and helpful that it made the experience worth the price. The free breakfast was small and heavy on the carbs (only bagels, waffles, toast, muffins and cereal) but it was free! Overall we enjoyed our stay.

“It is what it is - and so, my review is - good hotel”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 September 2011

It's the Econo Lodge, not the Hilton and so, this hotel provided us with a nice stay. The front desk was helpful, and it's in the heart of what's happening (restaurants, bars, shops, boardwalk). The room was reasonably clean, there were a couple of ants (ground floor room), and the blankets were not clean (but does any hotel ever actually wash blankets?). Overall, again - it's the Econo Lodge, what more were you expecting.

“Lack in Luxury...Make up in Service”

The hotel staff is awesome. We made a last minute reservation and they were very accommodating. No A/C in hall, but we used the stairs. No problems.

Room Tip: Have a dialogue with the front desk. Tesh is AWESOME!

“Second Time Staying Here and It Was Absolutely Great Both Times”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 August 2011
3
people found this review helpful

I commend this motel! This is the second time staying at the Econo Lodge Oceanfront and we enjoyed our stay greatly. The rooms were spotless. My sister always brings a can of Lysol when we stay in hotel rooms and she said that she felt like she did not have to use it in this room. We were very comfortable with the cleaniness of the room. The staff were very friendly and helped make it a pleasurable stay. The parking is very tight but so is every hotel in Va Beach. The attendant was very helpful parking the cars. All the staff were very attentive. The pool was clean and the temperature for the heated pool was just right. If I had one complaint, it would be that I think the room was a little overpriced but overall, I highly recommend this hotel.
