First the Pros: The reception personnel were polite, courteous and helpful, as were the kitchen & serving staff. The room & bathroom were spotless. The bed was comfortable. Appreciated having the luxury of a bathtub, not just a shower. Nice having a supermarket & fast food restaurant next door. The Cons: The room was large but practically unfurnished. No dresser, no bedside tables, no drawers, 5 hangers instead of a proper closet, no wall decorations to brighten the room, nowhere to put luggage other than on the floor! Nothing but wasted space! The tiny excuse for a bedside table is ridiculous. If one reads, wears glasses, wants water during the night, a place for a smartphone, a book, etc, there's no room to set them. To go through ones luggage one has to lift it onto the bed after lifting it from the floor or get on ones hands & knees on the floor to find items......fine if you're young, not so fine if not! Pay for wifi?? This day & age? Mom & Pop motels don't charge. Come on Travel Lodge! Small flat-screen TV. We waited for 35 minutes one evening about 6:30 for an appetizer. The server apologized for the lengthy wait but offered no explanation. The following evening we ordered the same thing and it arrived in 6 minutes. It would seem the parent company is saving expenses by avoiding to adequately furnish the individual rooms but still charging a hefty fee for overnight stays. If you're looking for underfurnished, sterile, unattractive accommodation similar to dormitories, then this is the place for you.
