Stayed here on Friday night, before a training day I was part of running on Saturday. I parked the other aide of Vauxhall bridge on a side street (was free parking there all weekend). Room was fine, breakfast good. Excellent location. And next door to MI6, so pretty safe!

Ideal location for what we were after and it was reasonable cheap. Rooms are basic and was lucky to have a tea/coffee making equipment as there was no hair dryer.Most area are in need of some TLC or cleaning.Breakfast..... cold stuff was ok but the hot Breakfast was disgusting, most of it was either cold or soggy. next we'll look elsewhere

Basic accodation. Average sized rooms, bland decor and no room service. No need to report to reception every time you or a vistor go to your room is a great advantage. The girls at the reception are trying but they ain't the brightest stars... The surrounding area is very noisy but the location is perfect for great transport connections ( underground and overground stations as well as at least 20 bus routes just a minute away )

We (5 rooms) did a last minute company booking paying well over the regular price to attend a conference.If you book well in advance and pay the regular price well below 100 EUR your mileage may vary.The rooms look optically clean but very dated, the hotel overall looks "mweh", 3 star worthy. The smell of the hotel corridors as well as the rooms is poor. There is a prevalent smell of water, damp bordering on mouldy.It doesnt smell fresh and you are not getting used to it. This is voiced in other reviews, all 5 of our rooms had this issue.Airco is noisy, not only in my room but other rooms as well.You cannot open the windows which is always a negative for me.Staff is attentive, receptionist with the glasses is great. She really tried her best to make the best for me, even after switching a room.I would absolutely not return here.

Location is great, a 20 minute walk from the central London but it comes at cost of noise 24/7. The rooms need a better maintenance and cleaning upon arrival of new guests. The bedsheets were clean and tidy. The air conditioning needs to be regularly cleaned, as the inside filter was filled up with grease and dust.

The good:Reasonable size room, which was clean. The room seemed reasonably quiet and the curtains were block out. A fan in the room.Lovely large towels. The location of hotel excellent-close to buses and underground which made getting around easier.The bad:Staff appeared indifferent to us when we interacted with them, a few were slightly more helpful than others. The first room we were given on the first floor had a broken bathroom door handle and the window overlooked the large bus station. We felt we would be unable to open the curtains (no light net curtain behind the block out curtain) without people being able to look directly into our room.We politely asked if it was possible to change to a higher floor, we were told yes but they could only give us a room on the second floor as those 2 floors were family or triple rooms (we had booked a triple room). We accepted and moved to a room on the second floor. Again we still felt the people at the bus stops (it was a busy bus station and had a large number of people at various times) could see in our room so we mostly kept the curtains closed which was a shame. It made the room feel smaller and a bit more claustrophobic.It was also very hot in the room at times, we struggled to get the air con to work so made use of the fan which really helped.On the first day after we arrived we put the sign (for refreshing towels, emptying bins, refreshing tea/coffee/milk and more toilet rolls if required) on the door at about 9.30am (the sign states it must be before 11am). When we came back that night we had been left fresh towels, the old ones had been left in the room and nothing else had been done.On the second day we again put the sign out at about 10am. When we came back the sign was still hanging on the door and no one had been into our room at all. I went to reception and again politely told the staff member what had happened. I barely got a grunt in response, she handed me a box to help myself to milk, handed me tea bags and 1 toilet roll. I asked for one more as we literally had none left. Again a grunt in response and handed it to me. No apology, no explanation and then she walked away.On the last day (check out was 12pm) we heard a knock at the door and someone say housekeeping at about 10.30am. We explained we were checking out soon and did not require anything. Even on going to check out, we were bluntly told put the room keys in the box and that was it. No did you enjoy your stay, nothing.

Bathroom was not maintained which resulted in flooding, noisy, not enough staff to provide any service in the cafe area. Outlook was dirty with a view of duvets and pillows overhanging neighbouring walls. Expensive unenjoyable stay. Happy that it was only 1 night

Even by the evening the rooms were still not ready and we had to go out, leaving our cases elsewhere. Thank you to reception for offering an alternative room, although we had to share a bed. A few items missing from the unlimited breakfast. Otherwise it was great - clean, good supplies in room, quiet, perfect temperature. Very convenient location.

I was disappointed that despite phoning a few days ahead requesting a room with a bath tub that this didn?t happen, so had to do a few rooms before finding a bath! Good room with adequate amenities and a great central location. The real stars of the show and backbone of this hotel are the excellent housekeeping team particularly Lizzie and Rosa who went above and beyond to assist me with a smile. Thank-you!

First stay 3 night out of 4 room never cleaned even after asking. Housekeeping even hung the "do not disturb" on my door after I went out leaving " please clean sign".Back for a second stay . First room the air con didn't work, instantly allocated a lovely room, ( obviously if you like living above a nightclub), absolute disgrace.I woke and had to leave at 4 am. Back at 11pm. Room not cleaned.What the hell am I paying for. I emailed the head office last week no response.The on site staff are really nice but only fire fighting.Please don't stay here unless you are prepared for substandard service, bass lines and no cleaning.Hopefully the management see this as I would like an explanation probably more than a refund.DO NOT STAY HERE UNLESS THE STREET IS ANOTHER OPTIONRooms: Good room bad service and the nightclub till 4 am is a touch restrictive!!!

Clean, good location close to public transport. Easy to check-in, rooms were clean and everything I needed including iron and ironing board. Checking out was quick and easy and bar/food if needed. Recommended.

In the shower the water was luke warm water, the breakfast was terrible. The 4 day stay I had to buy breakfast outside the hotel. The staff were friendly, but you need to have a decent breakfast at the beginning of the day. Very disappointed the amount of money paid and the service delivered was not acceptable.

This Travelodge is located in Vauxhall, right by the station, and is generally clean and tidy and well appointed. An unnecessary mess up at check in started our stay. Our report of a faulty shower drain which flooded the bathroom floor was greeted with an perfunctory shrug at reception, and we left feeling underwhelmed and disappointed with the customer service here. Not expensive, but stil lacking in the essentials of hospitality.

Travelodge states it is a 3 star hotel and essentially that is exactly what you get. I personally had a nice stay here as I found the bed really comfortable and the room satisfactory. The male breakfast/restaurant staff were absolutely fantastic and I think they are one reason why I would visit here again. The lady on checkout was also incredibly friendly. Whilst it is in a busy (but good) location and my room overlooked the bus depot, I personally did not hear a thing at night from outside, However, I could hear the people above me walking around and, at times, the room next door. This is expected considering that it the buildings are old. One tip, I had a portable fan and this seemed to block out most of the noise. Second tip, there were blackout curtains however, alot of light did still come in at night. I slept with an eye mask and had a solid sleep. Breakfast was good and had all of the essentials. Remember it is 3 star so go with a reasonable expectation. One thing that could be improved, two towels in the room would have been nice. I did ask reception after day two for a new towel and did get it. Overall, I will be back here again

Mold smell with Mold in bathroom which lead to a horrible experience for us. Poor breakfast and nothing was working in the bathroom like soap dispenser leaking, Mold in washroom, flush not working. Did not realise this would be the case
