Travelodge - Leicester Central

My experience of it

It was June 2007 when I stayed at the Travelodge in Leicester.
I was meeting somebody in Leicester for dinner/night out so just wanted a good value stay with a good breakfast. Nothing too pricey and nothing too flash.

Checked in and dropped all my stuff in the hotel late afternoon. My room was basic but very clean so thumbs up on that.

Wanted to visit a friend in the Leicester region at some place called Beaumont Leys so asked the person on desk how far it was and was informed that it was hardly walking distance so the young lady kindly called me a cab.

Had a top night out and was a little drunk so headed to bed. The bed was comfortable enough and I had a decent sleep so there couldnt have been too much noise.

Woke up at 9ish which is pretty late for me and checked out the TV which had all the basic channels and a couple of extras.

Stumbled down to the breakfast area thinking I was too late but I was told it was ok and I had a nice english breakfast. im not fussy where food is concerned so this was good nosh.

The Hotel room cost me £26 as I had pre-booked online which was cheap and very good value.
My Breakfast I cannot exactly recall the cost of but it was about £6 which was ok as there was plenty of it.

Overall, staff were helpful and friendly and as Ronseal adverts tell you 'It does exactly what it says on the tin' - How apt here..
Cant complain.

I have used Travelodge before and if you book in advance you can get yourself a really good deal.

They are never going to be classy places really but if you are just visiting people or have a dirty rendezvous lined up then they are perfect really because they are as cheap as you'll get and little fuss involved.

Good stuff.
