It's a Travelodge, you know what you're going to get, a clean room, a good night's sleep and friendly and courteous staff. This one is conveniently situated just off the M5, which is good, but a return taxi to Taunton town centre will set you back about £30, which is bad Other than that though, I found my stay to be exactly what I expected and there's ample free parking, which is a bonus Also there's Sainsbury's and The Range stores very close too
Stayed 1 night arrived early reception more than happy to release the room. The room was clean and pleasant,no complaints. A good night's sleep and bit warm but it's August a fan was supplied.only one issue there was a tree outside of room wich reduced daylight.
Super clean throughout and very comfortable beds. Room was perfect temperature too. Admittedly the reception area seems like a set from 'Prisoner Cell Block H' but that does not detract from it having great rooms. Good TVs. I have been more comfortable here than in some top dollar hotels in central London. Well done to all staff. Reception staff friendly and helpful. Not the best location for the town centre unless you have a car - that would be the only minus point.
Eddie, working the reception tonight is wonderful. Thank you for your help Eddie.
Hariett on the main desk welcomed us in just like booking in should be, Fast & Kind and made us feel at Home. Thank you Hariett I hope I spelt your name Right. You deserve a promotion. The room was clean, I brought my ultra violet light to check for punk stains ect and pish stains in the toilet but all was good. Surprising and good to know we were sleeping in a clea. Bed.. Hariett was the star of the Hotel, I won't forget the warmth she gave to my wife and child, most hotels we stay in the service is Standard, cold & Robotic....Thank You...
Only half our room was furnished; the other half was bare carpet, bare walls and the window. It was like we were missing armchairs or another bed or suitcase rack. If the bed was moved into the middle it would have made it a lot easier to get into bed and walk down beside it. The downlighting on my bedside light was really bright compared to the others, so I had to cover it with my pants to cut down the brightness.
Clean and tidy, staff are very friendly, would love to stay there again, Michael
Clean, functional, serviceable...was only there for an overnight so not bell's and whistles required! £+0 taxi from the station, a large supermarket opposite with adjacent pub and coffee shop so we'll placed
