The hotel was very close to the train station, yet our sleep was undisturbed. The room was spacious and well-equipped, and the newly added air conditioning was responsive and effective. The service was stress-free and accommodating, with personal assistance provided promptly. The location is fantastic, surrounded by a wide selection of restaurants and bars, making it ideal for exploring London easily. The dining experience was busy but efficiently managed, offering unlimited sweet biscuits for a fair price.

My stay at the hotel was lovely, with clean and comfy rooms, but the noisy heating system was a bit bothersome. The location was particularly quiet, not by the main road, which was a plus. However, the breakfast area was cramped, typical of Travelodge, but I managed to find a seat and enjoy the basic offerings.

The hotel was okay, not particularly special, with rooms that looked a bit like a school dinner room and were quite noisy during breakfast time. It was clean and spacious though. The service was supportive and very friendly, making our stay pleasant. The location was fantastic, very close to the station and within easy reach of Southbank. The dining experience was a bit chaotic, but the surrounding area had plenty to offer. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were a good enough size, and it was a relief to have air conditioning during the hottest weekend. However, the dining experience left much to be desired with cold food and a lack of basic supplies like pencils for the kids. The location, on the other hand, was excellent, just around the corner from Southwark tube station, making it convenient for exploring nearby attractions.
