If you?re going to book for a good nights sleep then don?t.Walls are so thin you can hear everything going on in the room next door.Recently painted and everywhere stinks of gloss plaint, to the point where it gives you a headache.Breakfast is apparently a ?box? but nothing was mentioned at check in. According to the website it?s just cereal anyway.For the cost of this hotel there?s so many better cheaper options available, so much so I booked somewhere else for the remaining 4 nights.Oh and the Toby Carvery next door is closed. Can only hope this hotel follows suitNoteworthy details: If you want a good nights sleep go elsewhere

The room (208) had been very recently refurbished and painted. The gloss paint on the front and bathroom doors and frames was still sticky to the touch and the smell was very strong and unpleasant. I developed a headache due to the paint odour and this interfered with my sleep throughout both night's of my stay. When I checked into the room, I immediately returned to the reception to raise the issue with Juan, who was very helpful, apologetic and offered me the option of another room (301). Unfortunately, room 301 had also been recently refurbished and painted, and it equally smelt of fresh paint. The gloss paint on the doors and frames was likewise sticky to the touch. Therefore, I remained in room 208 for the two nights stay, but it was an unpleasant experience and my ability to sleep was significantly affected. Whilst an email was sent to me after booking informing me of refurbishment work and potential noise, nothing was mentioned during or after the booking process regarding the recent painting of the rooms and the unpleasant smell in the rooms. It was clear that the rooms had been painted very recently as there were some paint marks still on the carpet and the TV power and antenna cables were disconnected and tangled behind the table that the TV was set on. This required threading the cables around the back of the table with some difficulty. The bathroom had no shower mat and I had to use the only hand towel that had been provided. Additionally, the entrance to the hotel was virtually surrounded by a very large puddle of rainwater, making it difficult to enter the building with my luggage from the parking bays without getting wet. Some drainage or a ramp would have been helpful. Customer service has subsequently offered a less than 50% refund, which is very disappointing.

Room is what you except for the price. It was clean and did the job.

It's a travelodge so you know what you get this one Ideally located near Littledown swimming complex. Everything was great only thing that some people would have issue with was soundproofing not great between rooms so you can hear next door neighbours occasionally!

I stayed at this Travelodge as I needed to be near the hospital. So disappointed. It was extremely expensive for such a basic room. No extras at all. Simply a bed shower and kettle. The whole place needs an update. Bed was very comfy though. I've stayed at a Travelodge on several occasions but never been so let down.Noteworthy details: It's very near the main road and hospital which can be noisy. Windows are very soundproof fortunately when closed

What a depressing place. Rooms need a total revamp, clean but very tired. Communal corridor area smelt awful. Reception were great and check in was seamless.

I was slightly apprehensive as I had a bad experience at a previous lodge. WOW! how can 2 travelodges be so different? Room was clean and welcoming. No whistles and bells but an overall better experience. Staff were happy and friendly and nothing was too much hassle. There is a Toby carvery right next door which did tend to get a bit noisy later in the evening (kicking out time) but nothing that shutting the window didn't block out. WIFI was spot on with no dropping out allowing me to work. Shower, although not powerful was 100% better than where I had previously stayed. Really enjoyed my 3 days and would hope that my company will book me back in when I'm here again in 4 weeks.

Beds were slightly too hard for my liking, would be nice to have a hairdryer in the room rather than haveing to go to reception and ask for one. Rooms were lovely and clean Check in was easy Zoe on reception was amazing I phoned the previous day and spoke with her and asked a few questions, I also mentioned that it was my first time staying away on my own, so her knowing that I was nurvouse about staying on my own she made me feel very welcome and even offered to move me to ground floor near the reception. She is a credit to the team and thank you will defently be back.

very poor hotel, had no hot or cold water in room so was unable to have a shower or make tea or coffee in the room, cheaper and more comfortable to sleep in the car than go here again! AVOID AVOID AVOID!!! Staff indifferent to sorting out the issues

Extremely loud as it nearly main hospital and throughout whole night ambulance cars driving past with sirens. Cleaning staff comes at 1am, also not afraid to slam doors extremely loud Smoking drugs is apparently allowed in this hotel as when I contacted reception she did do a thing about it. Extremely disappointed
