Typical Travelodge. Clean and tidy. Reasonable parking for free. Park and ride nearby to the city centre. Internet signal very poor. Forced to by WiFi for 48hrs from Travelodge £7 then only to find that it won't allow you to use your phone as a hotspot so I couldn't stream any TV on my tablet without forking out another £7. Very poor. Their TV guide was rubbish

First off, the Keycards work!! That made my stay a lot better. The room was huge in comparison to others I've stayed in. But I couldn't fault it. Clean throughout and I didn't have to swipe a number of doors to get to my room. Which is a big bonus. Their service was really good despite it seems there wasn't many staff. The chef/cook is not resident and has other jobs so you may eat a little later but that's not a worry I had. The food was good, more choice than I expected for the evening. The breakfast was plentiful and I was happy with what I had. The coffee from the machine was lovely and hot. The location, Google maps sent me to 2 dead end roads until I figured there was another road to get to it. I hadn't looked it up prior to my trip as it was last minute. So its something that needs updating somewhere. I would stay there again if they put a bin outside so you can discard rubbish etc as I'll have a dog so id need to discard of his waste.

My wife and I recently stayed at Travelodge and couldn’t have been happier. The room was spotless, comfortable, and beautifully modern—just what we needed to relax. The staff were friendly and welcoming, which made us feel right at home. It was a really enjoyable stay, and we’ll definitely be coming back.

Decent sleep on a cheap. Staff was kind and helpful. The room was very quiet, generally clean but there were some strange stains on the carpet. Aircon worked well - we were nice and cosy and had good sleep. If you don't expect luxuries and the price is right - I can well recommend this place. There are loads of shops, pubs and restaurants nearby, also it's not far from P+R to York city centre

Booked twice last year for the rugby, very easy place to get to and to walk to the stadium and any other establishments. Only one concern is when we was trying to sleep we could hear some moaning from the room next to us which I may think someone was getting barbosered by either Jason Luv or Mandingo. But other than that it was a great experience happily recommend again

Great stay in York! Arrived late afternoon and there were plenty of parking spaces. Check in was quick and the room was clean and comfortable. Park and ride is nearby and the bus into York is £3.90 for a return. Plenty of shops and food places nearby. Vending machine available in reception. Very impressed for the price and would gladly return next time I’m in York.

Lovely stay, rooms no problem, breakfast buffet was all good and the staff friendly. My only gripe which I think is a British issue, the litter in the landscaping areas. First impressions count. Wouldn't hurt to just collect the cans, crisp bags and usual costa cups out of the bushes.

Checked in here for the shopping centre directly opposite, was a lovely room, not much of a view (car park and the back of the shopping centre) caught the bus into York centre bus stop a 5 minute walk spent the day in York shopping, came back and had a lovely meal in the pub 2 mins away from the Travelodge, had a few drinks then to bed. Nice comfy bed and a good sleep. No noise from the pub . Next morning lovely breakfast and checked out ready for a full day at the shopping centre.
