Travelodge Ayr ★★★

"We had booked our stay at the Travelodge in Ayr almost a month in advance. There was the offer to choose your room but there was an additional charge to do this, so we chose not too. On arrival, we got speaking to a fellow guest in the lift. He enthused about how lovely his room was and how he would definitely return there again. We got to our room to find it stifling hot as they had left the window open, which had allowed the heatwave outside to preheat our room. They had shut the curtains, but this merely served to trap the heat! In hot countries they know that to keep a room or house cool, you must keep all the windows and curtains shut during the day and only open them again in the cool of night, well at least they got the curtains bit right! I closed the window to try and stop the room heating up any further, and to also get relief from the constant traffic noise from the busy A77 road which was right outside our window. There was not a great deal of difference in terms of soundproofing between the window being open or closed! Obviously the guy we spoke to in the lift had paid the extra charge to pick his room, as ours was utterly underwhelming. The decor was tired and dated, with a small telly and universal remote control. The bathroom was very tired looking and the bathtub was so small that it triggered a memory of me being bathed as a small child in the sink at home! We unpacked and went to visit a relative in Ayr. We returned later on that night to find the car park pretty much full, but we managed to squeeze in between two works vans at the side car park which stank of urine. We got back to our still stiflingly hot room and I decided to go for a bath. There was plenty of hot water, but it was impossible to lie back and relax as the bathtub was so tiny. I opened the curtains and the window to cool the room but the window was tethered by a metal wire, which meant it could only open 4 or 5 inches! Apparently, this was for our safety. So I was unable to open the window wide to relieve the heat, we had the uplight from the the car park floodlight illuminating our room and the incessant traffic noise to help us have restful nights sleep too. There was a fan provided to move the hot air around the room, but no electrical sockets next to the bed. After little to no sleep, we left exhausted and frustrated with a long day ahead of us. It was also cheaper to book on the day than it had been to book a month in advance! Not recommended!!!"

"Not happy This is the second time I have stayed in the mercure, first time ok .  Went down hill asked to check in early as we were going to a wedding. If they have a room available which didn't know till 11am that morning, we would need to pay extra £50.  Went back to hotel after wedding people couldn't get luggage room open  Next morning breakfast all I can say was dried up .  Went to check out girl said that is u everything paid I asked if we could leave car in car park said it would be ok but just put number in just incase  as we r were covered till 12pm which is when we checked  All of a sudden we had to pay £7  But was clear 5mins earlier  Won't be back there again ."

"We booked on line with ***********, when we arrived we were told there was no kitchen as it was getting refurbished, they should have been upfront with this before booking  We also had our 9 year old granddaughter with us and due to the bye laws she was not allowed in the bar even with been accompanied with an adult. The problem was on Friday evening there was nowhere for us to sit with our drinks and after a lot of consultation we were eventually allowed to sit in the breakfast area. Not good enough"
