"Perfect "

"I was apprehensive when I first started my stay at The Virginia Lodge. The marquis sign is missing light bulbs that reminds one of "missing teeth." Weeds grow from cracks in the parking lot and the base of buildings. My room needed a paint job as do the buildings outside. But as my stay progressed, I was impressed with the amenities provided. There is a microwave, refrigerator, cable TV and WIFI (though I did not use its WIFI). It's a pretty good value for the $62-69 per night stay that Expedia charged. Were it not for lack of property upkeep, The Virginia Lodge would be on par with the Holiday Inn."

"Will return "

"Excellent "

"Yes. Room was cool."

"Great clean hotel. Convenient to the metro station for easy access to D.C. I really enjoyed the oatmeal bar at breakfast, nice change from the usual hotel waffles. "

"Hotel was good, but I didn't like the fact that after driving hours, so much traffic around, the room wasn't ready. Didn't appreciate the way the lady talked to me. I understand that there is so much to do in a hotel, but I'm not responsible. It's a valet parking only, but when you can't park in front of the hotel, what can you do ? It was too much for me sorry."

"Staff was great and very kind and supportive , but the construction noise would not let me sleep and woke me up at 7 am "

"The staff were incredibly kind, personable, and helpful—the only reason I didn’t immediately request a full refund given the hotel’s condition. The elevator smelled strongly of urine and had sticky spots, and cigarette butts littered the floors. The room was extremely dirty: every layer of bedding, including the mattress, had stains, rips, and tears. I checked for bed bugs due to the condition and, while I didn’t find live ones, there appeared to be remnants from past issues. I found food wrappers and a corn kernel in the bed frame, filthy floors, and thick dust on curtain rods and wall décor, indicating a lack of regular cleaning. Doors had old stains, the shower curtain had visible mold (including fuzzy growth), and the microwave was disgusting. Trash from a prior guest remained, and the towels were unusable due to stains resembling blood and earwax. I also found a carpet beetle shell in a drawer. Housekeeping was requested, but while bedding was replaced, many issues remained, including the debris and stains. I also found new items in the room, suggesting someone entered while I was out, which was alarming. I became ill with food poisoning and had to extend my stay; the front desk staff were kind and accommodating. Overall, the hotel is uninhabitable for the price. Front desk staff were excellent, but management clearly neglects cleanliness, maintenance, and health standards."
