Travelodge Retford Markham Moor

I booked this particular travel lodge as it was close to Sundown Adventureland but whilst already at Sundown, a friend had a look on google maps to see if there was anywhere to eat, during that time they informed me it was a truck stop, which had I known, being a single female with my young daughter, I would not have chose to stay here. Upon arrival, the exterior was extremely unkept, there was smashed glass in the car park from a car window which made me feel uncomfortable, the grass area we had to walk passed was so overgrown, signs on the door to ask for dirty work boots to be removed, which again, made me realise this really wasnt for a family stay. Staff were very friendly and welcoming, this is absolutely not aimed at them, they were lovely! We got to the room which was clean, basic room with kettle, no air-conditioning but there was a fan, the shower was constantly dripping and bathroom needed an update and looked grubby, no sockets next to the bed, in the end, I decided to just made the 2 hour journey home as I didnt feel comfortable staying.

No ----------------------

Courteous staff. Room was basic as expectations extend but clean and tidy.

A very comfortable stay

Road noise with Lorries was significant at times unfortunately
