I had a long 3 week stay at the travel lodge, my first time. I had a wonderful experience. Staff were friendly and helpful at the reception desk.
The room was really clean, thanks to the polish lady whose name I can't remember. The radiators just need the dust blowing out but the bed was really comfortable. In general, I thought they kept the building really clean, and there is always someone around which is nice.
The location was excellent with the shops, supermarkets, restaurants and train station all within walking distance with the busses being frequent.
The only downside was the WiFi for me. I found buying additional WiFi a pain to set up from the web page. It was fine with the inital booking, but the add on seemed to take a long time to set up. I don't know why the WiFi can't be included in the price like other places and why you are only limited to 2 devices. You get a small amount free but that is not generally enough.

The bathroom was dated and the toilet felt like it was going to break any second. The shower curtain didn't tuck into the shower tray so water dripped everywhere during the shower (a remarkable amount dripped given the shower head was mostly blocked and didn't release much water at all).
I expected a lot more, having paid almost £100 per room...
Read moreMy experience at this hotel since I arrived has been very positive, as the reception staff are very friendly and try to help you with everything you need. I highlight the cordiality and good treatment of the blonde woman at reception, as well as the kindness, closeness, and friendliness of ERASMO, with whom I had the opportunity to speak several times. He has a very pleasant demeanor. The room is nice and comfortable. The location of the hotel is great, as the train station is just a 2-minute walk away. I really like that area of Clapham Junction because it's easy to get around to any part of London. Additionally, it's a very picturesque neighborhood and it's wonderful to stay there. I definitely hope to return to London soon and will stay at...
