It was conveniently located near the metro which was a plus. The comforter had holes in it which was off putting and the shower had coins in it which was weird because why didn’t the cleaning staff pick those up.

My hideaway spot from society! I always enjoy my stay at the Virginia Lodge. It’s quiet, and relaxing. Only thing that I didn’t like about the stay is the bathroom. I asked for a room for a bathtub so that I could soak. The tub didn’t have a stopper. Also, the shower didn’t work properly. Overall, I was able to enjoy my thanksgiving getaway. I was able to store my home cooked food in the refrigerator. I was also able to heat up my food using the microwave. Any time I stay I always get a smoking room. My hidden gem in Alexandria !

Poor stay
The reviews about this property are misleading. Several people rated their stay as good or even exceptional, however that is not true. The lobby has cracked floor tiles, trash on the ground and the employee is behind bulletproof glass. The room was dingy, with a dirty door, no hangers, no hand towels, paper thin bath towels and a lumpy, old mattress. It is too bad, because with some effort, cleaning and care, this could be a charming place. It is a wreck and the worst place we stayed on our trip.

Well worth it
It was a really nice place for the price, infact I've stayed at more expensive places that weren't as nice. I wasn't looking for luxury, just did clean, quiet place to sleep for the night and this was more than I expected! The service was very simple too, easiest check in I've ever had

A face lift will do!
It's no need in complaining cause it ain't like they are listen to what anybody suggest anyways. But hey I guess you get what you pay for I can't wait to get my own. But to be absolutely honest a face lift will do the Virginia Lodge very well. Stop trying to live like the Jones' its ok to be different.

The room was supposed to be non-smoking. I opened the door the smoke hit you in the face. I tried another room it had a bad odor. I stay in the smoke smelling room. I went to sleep and noticed all the cigarette burns in the comforter and the sheet several cigarette burn holes. The price should have been $50 a night. Not a good experience.

Basically looks like somewhere drug addicts would stay. Room was dirty and smelled horrible. I was afraid to even sit on any of the furniture there. Only booked as a last resort, would not recommend at all.

Not so great
While going into the bathroom to disinfectant everything i noticed that the toilet was dirty. Not wanting to be bothered i just cleaned it. The rest of the day went pretty okay but a few hours before i checked out the following day i saw a cockroach going up the wall in the sink area. I heavily sprayed it with the disinfectant and killed it. I ended up checking out a day before i was suppose to

The room is considerably big and equipped in an old building that needs a lot of improvement and maintenance. The carpet was super dirty and there was a terrible smell of cigarette in the room. The location is OK because the metro is about 20 minutes walking but the area feels unsafe and definitely not walkable after dark. It is around 1h by metro from Washington DC Downtown.
