Clean, comfy. Great for an overnight stay on our way further afield. And a warm welcome from Claire, who was super helpful and friendly. Many thanks

We stayed here with our 2 small dogs and the room was excellent, big enough for us all and the staff couldn't have been more helpful. The location was brilliant as it was next to several takeaways and very close to the main roads. Would definitely recommend it to anyone.

Stayed a night, Basic but clean, with a comfortable bed and everything needed for a short stay. Good value for the price and fine for an overnight stop.

Really convenient location good size room. (They are currently having trouble with the drains so the room smells like sewage)But if there was no smell then no complaints. Overall a good hotel. With plenty of shops and restaurants around. Good place to stay if traveling for work.

Excellent room. Unfortunately at the back every morning there would be a lorry sitting there for ages with the engine running

A nice Travelodge just outside of Scunthorpe town centre. Quiet and clean. A bit far out to walk but you can get a bus from outside Tesco across the road.
