Travelodge Edinburgh Airport Ratho Station

Ok for 1 night (just).

Firstly, not quite an 'Airport' hotel when it takes 10 mins by car along a dual carriage way, I had expected to walk there from arrivals. There is only a tiny soap bar in the room, no shampoo or shower gel. We paid for the breakfast only to find there were no scrambled eggs left & 3 sorry looking sausages, the bread was stale and I had to ask the staff for cups then plates. There was dirty plates & cups on most of the tables, which were still there when we left, dissapointing, there seemed to be a zero care factor.

Fair hotel

Couch in room had a few stains on, pillows were a bit flat, however we did get extra when asked for. Room was ver hot with only a heater in room, luckily it was a cool night. This hotel is good transit hotel. Good value if you get the special rate

How parents (like ourselves) would know this without being told before hand was a mystery to us. Certainly this policy is not publically stated on Travelodge websites or in their restaurants/cafes (now sign

avoid room 1 but otherwise ok for location, price

I was traveling with a friend and the cheapest option for separate beds was a family room which consisted of a bed and a sofa that could be converted to a sleeping space. The sofa was quite dirty but the sheets were more than large enough to immediately cover the sofa before I even sat on it. The rest of the room and the bathroom were clean enough. The other drawback to the room was one accessible outlet in which to plug in a hair dryer or other appliance. The room's heater was plugged into that outlet but thankfully it was not needed. The last thing to comment on was room 1. Whenever the pers
