"This Travelodge is extremely dated and desperately needs a renovation. It looks it hasn’t been updated since the 90s. As soon as we walked into the room we were hit by a very strong smell of aftershave. There was a green stain on the pillowcase. The bathroom was covered in hairs and the carpets were filthy. After taking off our shoes for a few seconds the bottom of our shocks were completely brown. I booked a standard family room. When booking online the photos of this room looks completely different and way more modern and nicer than it actually is. The single bed was more like a flimsy folding camping bed, not even with a headboard. For a room meant for families, it would make far more sense to have proper beds for the kids to sleep in. Like all Travelodges, the free WiFi only lasts 30 minutes which is ridiculous. You can’t do anything useful in that time. You wouldn’t even get halfway through a movie. And the WiFi connection was so slow that most of my 30 minutes was just spent waiting for things to load. The only positive is the location with it being in a service station with a Costa, Burger King, Greggs, M&S, and WHSmiths, plus there’s plenty of decent parking available"

"Stayed here last week, great location and great staff."
