Travelodge Hotel - Chippenham Leigh Delamere M4 Eastbound

Friendly staff, comfy bed and even had a desk fan in our room which was great given the hot weather we are currently having 🥵

Room was comfy clean and quiet. The only nit pick is that the corridor outside the room smelt damp and musty, was quite strong . Although the room was fine. Staff very good. It is a very convenient and cheap stop over . Lots of places to eat and get supplies. So all in all good

Stopped to escape the heat (33 degrees) and have a rest without an advanced booking. Person passing the front desk (not sure he was the receptionist) said they were short on cleaners so may have to wait, came back after 10 minutes saying room was ready. We were given Room 130: a room found to not be fit for habitation. I say this because it stunk of damp and mould. Particularly notable when the window was shut. We shut the window to reduce the ingress of heat and the stench kicked in. Awaken by scratchy throats and feeling congested. We packed up and left asap. The other issues were: 1. No mattress protector on the double bed, just a flat sheet over the mattress. We had to improvise with bedding from the single bed. 2. No hand soap in dispenser, just a mug with a bright green liquid in it by the side. 3. Body wash dispenser over the bath was dirty, fell apart to touch. I would have liked the opportunity to complain immediately however there is no mechanism to do so beyond the operation team on site who clearly have significant issues which include: health and safety duties and managing hygiene requirements. Totally disappointed shocked and appalled. Biological hazard v Extreme heat : Extreme heat won!!

Tun down, dated, dirty and noisy. Rats outside the hotel. Shower had 1 setting... boil. Changed rooms and it just had low pressure. Rooms very dated and things broken. Very noisy can hear every door close or someone above cough. Ground floor windows are see through. Propeis in an awful state.

It’s a dated Travelodge and it’s not great. I’m unsure if our room had even been cleaned because we found a gone off pint of milk on the window ledge and a half eaten bag of cookies on the wardrobe shelves, and after walking in and out of the bathroom the soles of our feet were filthy, and there’s all yellow crusty stuff around the toilet base. Beds looked clean enough at least. There’s no air con so the room was unbearably hot, a fan is provided but it wasn’t very powerful and sort of just blew hot air lightly around the room. On the plus side the shower is fairly good, great water pressure, and the bloke on reception was really polite & helpful, he’s the sole reason I rated this place a two star and not a one.

Parked in the allotted spaces for the hotel but wary it’s a service station and you can’t miss the signs saying ‘Free parking for 2 hours only’, I asked at reception if I needed to validate my parking or place anything in my windscreen only to be told ‘there’s no need if you are in our parking spaces’. Two weeks later and have just received a £100.00 penalty notice from Moto services for staying over 2 hours! BEWARE parking when staying here!!
