Cheaper alternative to staying in DC. No frills but it was clean and met all our needs. Easy & pleasant 1/2 mile walk (one steep flight of stairs) on bike path to metro station. They graciously allowed us to leave car on the property after we checked out for our day trip into DC. If using metro into city I... More

Conveniently located, about 10 mins walk to metro. 30 mins drive from Dulles International Airport (if no traffic jam). Nice and quiet neighborhood. Room is clean, big and nice. Double room is good for 4 adults. Breakfast is not bad. Coin laundry machine available. If you like Japanese food, 25 mins walk to 238 West Broad Street, you can have... More

While my friend and I were desparately looking for a budget hotel within Washington DC, one of our friends suggested that we can look up hotels in Virginia. We came across this hotel on trip advisor and we were attracted by its amenities and price. This place is a 10 min walk to metro station (if you know the direction).... More

I've stayed here many times. Rates vary quite a lot, but still a good deal for the DC area. Easy access from Rte. 66 and less than 10 minute walk to Metro. Breakfast is free, but very minimal. No fitness room. Rooms are pleasant, nothing fancy but clean. Good free internet connection. Overall, a good deal for the DC/ Arlington... More

We stayed here for four nights to sightsee in Washington D.C. The room rate was economical and we took the Metro train everyday into Washington, it worked great. We found this hotel to be clean but dated. The plus side out weighs the negative. Plus side: Safe area, easy walk to Metro, free parking, free wifi, great room rate, good... More

Nice hotel. Looks nice from outside as well as inside. Easy to find and few minutes drive from loads of eating places. Car park free and 5 mins to metro line into Washington. Metro only about $4 one way, cheaper than taking car and easier. Hotel happy for us to leave car and return evening even though did not stop... More

I stayed at the Econo Lodge for 1 week in October 2011. The room was excellent; it was great to walk into a nice cool air-conditioned room, away from the heat and humidity outside. The double bed was very comfortable and sheets were changed EVERY day, as well as towels, and basic amenities were topped up daily. All in all... More

Considering the price of other DC area hotels...you cannot beat the Econo Lodge Metro. Basic accomodations, but clean, SUPER helpful and friendly staff and a 6-7 minute walk to the METRO. Stayed for one night with my wife and two boys, 7 and 5, and always felt safe. No complaints about the room except for maybe wishing there were more... More

This hotel looked very neat and clean, just the place for the final night of my business trip. However, just as I was about to turn out the light and go to sleep, a bedbug crawled across my blanket! I called the front desk and the desk clerk quickly came to my room. I had squashed the bedbug in a... More
