Econo Lodge Virginia Beach - On the Ocean

My wife and I actually booked this Econo Lodge because of the positive online reviews and the value, and we weren't disappointed. It had exceptional reviews for it's cleanliness and they were correct. It was one of the cleanest places that we had ever stayed and it's a great value for the money. It's a smaller hotel, but ALL the rooms have beachfront views.Everything worked well in our room. It's small enough to be quieter and cozy and is only a couple of blocks off of the main road into Virginia Beach in the middle of the strip. Great location! The staff was very friendly and accommodating. I mentioned in conversation during our check-in that our stay was for my wife's birthday. After we checked in to our room and we were ready to head out I noticed an envelope on the ground in front of our door as we were heading out. It was a birthday card from the staff for my wife. They didn't have to do this at all and we really appreciated it. Nice touch! This is a great place to stay and you can't beat it for the value and location. The staff is exceptionally friendly and helpful. It has a small pool, free basic continental breakfast, good wi-fi, and everything you need for a stay at the beach. One note, it is an older hotel, and has no elevator, but it's only three stories tall, so it shouldn't be a big deal for most people. Just request the ground floor when you book. They also have free bicycles you can use to get around the area as well. I have to mention again how clean and well kept the place was! Believe all the reviews when they mention the cleanliness. They don't have the corporate mentality and you can tell service still matters to them. Overall, we were very satisfied and we will definitely be back to stay here again!

There was actually nothing that I didn't like. Everything was better than expected and it's a great value for the money! maybe add an elevator, but I understand that's a big cost for a smaller place, so It wasn't a big deal for us.

The staff were so helpful and friendly. An older hotel but very clean. Excellent value and location.

It was very clean, great spot, and the hospitality. Everyone was so kind and helpful. They also have bikes for free. Really liked this place and will def stay here again!

No elevator. People with knee problems or handicap, if you have lots of luggage its hard to go up and down steps. Just three floors but could be an issue for some. Small continental breakfast and no tables to sit at had to take to room.

We were right on the beach.
