Ok, but nothing amazing

Pleasant helpful staff, basic accommodation , fixed wall shower, so not as good to clean yourself properly, or for staff to clean the shower, a few hairs stuck on the shower wall and towels smelt funny. Like they’d been hung up to dry in a kitchen, fine and quiet, would be good to have a little shop area with some toiletries, sanitary wear etc and a bell/ buzzer would be helpful for the reception, if there aren’t any staff in there, although, someone did come quickly when I shouted through.

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.
