I have had a generally positive experience with Linode for several years. They seem to be near the top of the pack in terms of price/performance ratio (for Xen VPS). I have used Dreamhost shared hosting for several projects, it can be sluggish... however it would be easy for a non-admin to maintain and the price is right.

I added ServInt and ZipServers because they have datacenters and staff in the DC area. A discount or a sponsorship may be possible.

I have personally had great performance with container based virtualization both OpenVZ and (more recently) LXC for projects at work. The container based virtualization universally has less overhead (there is no hypervisor). I think that a container would serve us very well. However, I do not have any experience with a commercial OpenVZ, Virtuozzo, Linux-VServer, or LXC VPS vendor so I don't know who to recommend.
