I've stayed there in Springdale to attend a relative's wedding. It was my worst stay ever at a Travelodge property. Normally the rooms have refrigerators or a microwave. My room did not have either. I complained to the front desk, but their only solution was to move me to another room. I couldn't really sleep when they have little kids running around and drunks hanging outside. The front desk staff was the only good thing.

We stayed here for one night, and one night only. When we opened the hotel room, it smelt like someone had sprayed a bunch of perfume to cover up a smell. I'll never know if there was a smell or not, because I sprayed Febreze and my own perfume to get rid of the other nasty perfume! After about 15 minutes, we realized there were GNATS in the room with us. It was absolutely disgusting. Not only that, but pull up the blanket on the bed, and what do you see? Hair. Yes. Ew. When we woke up, we started packing up. The cleaning ladies started going around with shopping carts, "cleaning" the rooms. We had our curtains wide open, so they could see us packing our things up. And the lady did, because she walked by 3 times and stared in QUITE rudely, and did the 3rd time a split second before she knocked on the door and said "HOUSE CLEANING" ...um, you just looked in our window, and we aren't done packing? WHY EVEN DO IT?

I will NOT be back.

Ok, I'll start with the good...the people were actually pretty nice. My brother got a room that the a/c didn't work, so they gave him another room that the a/c didn't work in...so, third time was the charm, and finally found a working a/c. After we checked out, I realized I had left all of my necklaces hung up in the room, I called, and they had them at the front desk. No problems there (except 3 rooms to finally get a working air conditioner in 100+ degree weather? Now, for the bad. In my room, the carpet was sticky and gross. I got bit multiple times by fleas, saw 2 roaches in my room. Had I known I was going to be dealing with fleas, I would have brought my own bug bombs. I was pretty much disgusted. I'm no princess, who expects to dine on china trimmed in gold, but, come on! Clean carpets and no bugs is a minor thing to ask. The front desk clerks response? "We have a lot of travelers with pets." Never crossed anyone's mind to get an exterminator in there on occasion? I was far from impressed. Had I known how bad the situation was going to be, I'd have eaten Taco Bell more and spent a bit more on the room. Officially the worst hotel I've been in, and I've seen some bad hotels.

The room was comfortable and clean. It had all the things I expected: coffee pot, iron, ironing board, micro, mini-fridge......in addition to a big clean bed and fat pillows. Ahhhh.
I did see the pool area, but was on an outer room and did not hear the noise. Getting into the parking area with a large vehicle might be tricky on a busy night, but i was there mid week, so parked my truck with no problems. Traveling alone as a female, I was a bit concerned about the locks, and checked them. All seemed good. The second night my husband was able to join me, and I felt safer. The breakfast was good. I had fun showing a couple of painters how to work the waffle machine. They didn't know much English...so we did lots of hand signs. The young man who worked the desk was very helpful in making sure I had a proper receipt so that I could get my money back from work for the nights because I had booked on-line.
I had stayed here a couple of years ago, and returned, and would do so again. The rates were the best in the area during the time I researched.
