The Travelodge was clean and well presented. Our room faced the road, which was opposite a Wetherspoons and cinema, so quite a lot of noise at times.  â€¦

Lovely clean room. Bathroom was a bit small. Staff we saw were polite not talkative. Car park was across the road free between 18.00 to 09.00. Wetherspoons across the road. No noise despite pub being full. Seems to be a Travelodge close to railway.

This Travelodge is clean and our family rooms were spacious. The staff are friendly and helpful. No car park so need to pay in nearby car park. Rooms don't have drawers for clothes, just small hanging space with hangers.||Would recommend.

Stayed here for one night. Friendly welcome from the receptionist, Sophie, who was very helpful and placed me on the quiet side of the hotelThe room was tidy and the bed was the usual Travelodge comfortable mattress. It was handy staying in the center of town and I parked at King Street car park.

Rooms were lovely. But air con not working when talking to receptionist, was told they would sort it from there. Still not fixed spoke again to different receptionist when leaving they then said they were aware of the issue and waiting for maintenance. Breakfast to go box not ready in morning although pre ordered. We were told we hadn't got any for our rooms. They did eventually find our order.

When we arrived the ladies at the desk were so lovely and so helpful. Me and my partner only stayed for a night to go to the virtual golf, mini golf and the darts mainly just for his birthday get away. The hotel it self was very clean and the bed was very comfy too. There was so much we could say but I’d be here for so long but just want to say thank you and we will be returning!

The room was good with an air conditioner, but you need to prepay for a slow 5mbit Wi-Fi for £3 per day, and it is limited to only two devices, which is restrictive when you travel with someone for work.

Had a 2 night stay with a friend, hotel seemed nice and clean, good location BUT in a twin room the beds were small 2ft 6 single beds!!! For adults this is ridiculous! Felt like I was in a child's size bed and didn't sleep well at all! Complained after first night, Staff not helpful at all and really couldn't have cared less! Very disappointing 😞
