Don’t let pictures fool you

Stayed here due to a cancelled flight, and it was cheap and close. Staff was polite and helpful but check in was rocky due to power outage, not their fault and wouldn’t be included if the rest of my stay wasn’t a nightmare. The room smelled of stale cigarettes and cannabis. The door required a degree in engineering to open. The mirror was hanging on for dear life and the frame was broken. The window was broken. There wasn’t a single clean surface. The smoke detector was in a cage but somehow still disconnected. The bed was just a bag of springs. Steer clear.

We rented 1 room with 2 double beds: Floor was filthy, cobwebs in bathroom, mold in bathroom, 1 towel and 2 washcloths for 4 people (front staff said they didn't have any more till laundry was finished) for key card didn't work, door didn't close and lock properly, room smelled like cigarettes, burn on desk. I went and talked to mgmt but they couldn't help. After calling for other accommodations all hotels by the airport were booked. I tried to call corporate but no response. DONT STAY HERE. EVER.

The first night i arrived the power was out due to a storm. I had to get my key card reactivated every time i returned to the hotel. The place looks like low income housing. You can tell some of the guests live there. There were bugs, nor was it very clean. I wouldn't recommend this hotel to anyone.

Do not stay in this hotel in any scenario. The rooms are dirty, there's bed bugs, it smells like smoke, and it has a weird vibe. It's a terrible hotel.. it shouldn't eve be called a hotel. You're better of sleeping in your car.

The hotel itself is nothing like the photos, it is a rundown strip of falling down shacks,, it feels very, very unsafe, the rooms are attached and have barely anything keeping them separate. U can hear them breathing next-door, There People lurking in the parking lot and people who definitely live here as well as hookers and John’s galore. I hate to say it, but it kind of seems like there might be some sex trafficking going on in here. It is surrounded by other hotels, which look a lot More put together, and are standing upright. This one looks like it was a bunch of falling over attached sheds. There are giant roaches outside the doors on the walkway, the towels were filthy. The bed is very thin and basically mostly springs disguised as a mattress that is just sitting up on a block of wood, yes, place is not for the weary

I would NEVER stay here again. The bathroom was NASTY! There was residue all over the floors. Hair in shower and the sink was broken… it sprayed up to my face…. Brown dippings from bathroom ceiling ,tv remote didn’t work, the staff gave me 2 keys that didn’t work so I have to keep driving back over to the front desk. The door was jammed each time I got a new key so we ended up in a new room. Staff was not focused on the basketball game on tv then his job. Nasty dirty room and it was FUNKY

Never again Travelodge

To get registered is like entering a security entrance. you talk through glass. Entering the room, you immediately smell heavy cigarette smoke. Coffee maker, no coffee, no cups. No soap for the shower. 1 Towel. The pictures on the website do not match. Never again Travelodge. Kingsize bed, 2 pillows.
