The lack of a fridge in the room was a downside, but overall, it was a great experience. I will definitely consider staying at Travelodge again in the future.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were comfortable but got too hot at times, and opening the windows led to noise issues from the nearby roads affecting sleep. The hotel's proximity to MeadowHall shopping Centre was convenient but overshadowed by the noise disturbance.

The hotel rooms were spacious, comfortable, and immaculate, providing everything needed for a restful night's sleep. Although the desk could have been larger, the pre-printed letter about major works to the lift showed Travelodge's effort to inform guests. The location just above the main entrance was convenient.
