The hotel was mediocre at best. The bar attached was nice. The USB port didn’t work and the TV stations pixelated.

Clean, bed comfortable. Good shower. Unfortunately, the travelodge does not have air conditioning and the room was very very warm. The window only opens slightly and we felt like baked potatoes by the time we woke.
