Travelodge Grantham A1

Cleanliness and Maintenance: Multiple reviews highlighted "very clean," "spotless," "fresh-smelling" rooms, and well-maintained facilities.

Bed was comfortable. The room was not clean. There were beer bottle caps under the bed, headboard top was dusty, bathroom door had dirty brown splashes up it, bathroom tiles were grimy at the toilet wall and behind the door, the tiles that have been cleaned are grimy and streaky, bath taps are dirty all around the base, pull cord for the bathroom light was crispy, beige/brown and absolutely filthy and germ-ridden. I am not one of those people who go around running my fingers along surfaces to judge how well somewhere has been cleaned. In this case white gloves were not needed because the lack of cleanliness was obvious. This was a ground floor, twin room booked for myself and my adult son who has autism. I can’t quite figure it out … maybe this room was left for people with disabilities and not used as often as others? Or maybe it doesn’t need cleaned as often as the other rooms because people with disabilities don’t care? Maybe because it was the only available twin room for 20 miles they knew they could away with leaving it filthy? Who knows? I just know that I will not use Travelodge again nor will I recommend it.

I would recommend this hotel, with clean, fresh and airy rooms and bathrooms with towels and showergels etc. Clean, soft, fresh bedding and tea and coffee facilities for added room comfort. Friendly, caring customer service. Tv in rooms and Plenty of storage. What's not to love about this hotel!
