After our last experience with Travelodge we vowed NEVER to return but by popular demand we are back to try out a Super Room!
Apprehensively checking in to the Travelodge in Faringdon, Oxfordshire (where we were greeted by a shopping trolley and which is weirdly located above a Home Bargains) we made our way down a corridor straight out of a horror movie. But what follows next totally shocked us!
Join us to find out what we think of Travelodge's Super Room offering.

Who & what is JJ Extra?
We’re Josh & Jason, a British couple with a passion for everything travel & food (and lots of coffee). Whether at home in the UK or on our international travels we seek out everything from hidden gems to bucket list destinations, trying new foods and unique drinks wherever we go.
After meeting in early 2019 with dreams of travelling the World together we were all plunged in to the chaos of a global pandemic. Now, as we move in to the future we are making up for lost time and ensuring every day turns in to an adventure, fuelled by our love of food and an unhealthy (but enjoyable) addiction to coffee.
Over the last 2 years we have explored our beautiful home country like never before and in 2022 we were lucky enough to start travelling abroad once more and our dream to travel the world together has been reignited.
We love an adventure and in 2023 we are challenging ourselves to step out of our comfort zones & push ourselves to the limit as we take on bigger adventures than ever before, visit new places & try new experiences. So come along and join the adventure, you never know where it might lead!

Personally, I prefer having a room at the far end of the corridor as you have less people passing to and from their rooms!

After stopping in over 20 travelodge's in the UK im certain they do their very best to hinder your mobile signal. Its always fine once you step outside but as soon as you cross the threshold it's like stepping back into 1998.

It is on our list to try very soon 😊

@jennawood1914 Жыл бұрын

You should try Aberystwyth premier inn it’s well nice and you could do another video there because there’s lots of tourist attractions ❤

I have a sleep disorder so have always gone to hotels with room service but when my car broke down I discovered Just Eat. If I stayed somewhere like this would reception let my delivery drivers up to my room if I explained my situation and they knew I was expecting them?

We hope you get a decent room and enjoy your stay. Did you choose a super room or a standard one?

@Bungle2010 Жыл бұрын

Seems like the quality of Travelodges is variable. I was looking at staying at one in York. The two central ones I looked at, one seemed superior to the other one based on reviews. In the end I booked somewhere else, so am not staying at either of them....at least this time.

incorrect for 4 people not in a corner that’s most people not in the corner end in less then if you pay extra have you heard if EGE creeckside hotel and Wyndham hotel were in corner sweet and we payed probably a bit more for corner sweets 😊😊💰

I have a question, sorry nothing to do with Travelodge but what is the camera you use for filming and the gimble you use. I’ve seen quick glimpses of it and my dutchie is into photography and filming. Hope you don’t mind me asking and thank you 😊xx

@JJExtra Жыл бұрын

Of course we don’t mind! We film on a Sony ZV-E10. We don’t use a gimbal as such, we have a Joby Gorillapod which is a kind of hand-held tripod with flexible arms to allow you to stand or fix it to objects. Hope that helps 😊

Last time we stayed in a Travel Lodge the hall carpet had a long wide streak of black grease along it. But maybe your vid has changed our minds. 😉

You may be on to something about getting the furthest room. I stayed at an Extended Stay America and was placed in the farthest possible room PLUS the hallway was dark and creepy too 😂. Other than that it was a nice experience.

In the US, Travelodge is considered more of a motel than a hotel. Like a 1 or 2 star hotel. The ones in my city are located in terrible neighborhoods.

@JJExtra Жыл бұрын

We have never stayed in a Travelodge in the US but they certainly are different looking to here and yes they don’t look great tbh

I still feel terrible that it was my fault you stayed in that terrible travel lodge before 😬 sorry xx we stayed in one in Southampton and they left us a free twix in the fridge, but just one between two of us 🤷🏻‍♀️😂 glad this one was much better than the last one x

Always bring ( or get a small bottle of vinegar) run 50% vinegar / 50% water through the coffee maker, then plain water through it, to clean it. Sadly, no one there will do that, they may wipe down the outside of it but , they don’t do internal cleaning. My 2nd hint , acquire some bottled water to make the coffee, It vastly improves the taste of the coffee ☕️. I now return you to your regularly scheduled programs.😉 ❤ ☕️🌈

@JJExtra Жыл бұрын

Love the bottled water suggestion, never thought of that. So glad we checked the coffee machine, luckily it’s only a coffee build up as opposed to something worse 😂

@Bungle2010 Жыл бұрын

Putting vinegar in a coffee machine can damage it.

@alexanderallan215 Жыл бұрын

@@Bungle2010 Actually it doesn’t, google it. You use 50/50 of water & vinegar and run it through the Keurig. I then run plain water through, to clear out any residue. Then make your coffee ☕️ as directed. It’s good to do it every 30 days, you should also be cleaning the the exterior as well.
