I come with my husband only for a one night as was our sons graduation. Check in was fast. We were staying in the annex building room 104. Upon entering i could smell dump no smell of cleanliness Frome outside you could hear traffic all night. In the bathroom shower gel disposal hard to use, no shampoo. Very disappointed. When we come back from dinner our room key didn't work we went back to reception ( empty,) Waiting for anybody from the staff to appear for about 10min. Will never stay at travelodge again.

Very average

For the price I paid I expected much more. The hotel didnt even look like a hotel with the entrance around the corner and no reception area. The room was very spacious and the bed was comfortable but I could hear people walking above at night. There were no toiletries in the bathroom and internet was free for 30 minutes. If you wanted more time it was £3 I expected better for the price

Average and extra costs!

Staying in an annex building. Key card did not work. Had to walk back to reception to get a new one. Arrived 50 mins early. Paid £15 to check in earlier. Internet was £9 for 2 and a half days. This was NOT clear on the listing.

My stay was generally very good. The only small gripe was a bit of confusion over the exit. The road markings had been worn away and it wasn't easy to see where to go.

Good location. Spacious room and good value for money but it feels a bit unnecessary to only give 30 minutes free wi-fi and ask people to pay after that.

The main building was an old building reused. The annex seemed a little isolated - no reception desk. This would have just allowed a little more human contact

I think consideration to explain my room was in a separate building would have been nice. I was alone with a toddler and could have used some assistance. The cleaner ignored me when i was clearly struggling. The room was fine but when crouched down the carpet obviously smelt of vomit.
