“Warm welcome”
+Lovely warm welcome on a cold and dreary January evening. Was checked in by Sophie and she was very efficient and thorough. Room was spotless and everything in order...plenty of teas, coffees, and soap dispenser full with plenty of toilet rolls. Warm and comfy room, only thing I would say is very squeaky floorboards. ( room 235) but apart from that would definitely stay again.

“Exeter M5”
+Helpful checkin staff called Shaun, very knowledgelable about the area and very quick to get us a room ready and checked in, room very clean and warm, no noise even though you're next to the M5! Amazing

“Perfect location perfect hotel for travelling to SW”
+Exactly how a hotel stay should be. Booking well in advance for only 24.99. The hotel was easy to access just off a motorway junction. I simply arrived at reception was asked my details by the polite and efficient Shannon and given a key for my room. The room was spacious modern and very clean and well maintained. The towels were all clean and fresh. What impresses me most though is that despite it been a large busy hotel you simply can't hear anything from the other rooms. Checking out simply involved putting my key in a drop box. Faultless.

“No bells and whistles, just great service and good value for money. Thoroughly recommended.”
+Too often people criticise Travelodge but I think it's important to get things in context. You can't get The Ritz Hotel for Travelodge prices. It's a budget hotel and I've always been happy with the excellent service from staff wherever I've stayed. Exeter, in particular, is on my preferred list as parking is good, it's location for the south west of England is perfect, it's in a very safe area and the rooms are comfortable. Nowhere else has mattresses like Travelodge, they are the best. Things may occasionally not be as they should due to turnover of guests but staff are always quick to respond at all locations. Travelodge is inexpensive and functional. Everything else over-and-above is bling and, if that's what you want, there are plenty of expensive alternatives if you want to pay a lot more money.

“A very comfortable night”
+I stayed for one night on my way to see family at Christmas. The staff on check in and check out were friendly and helpful. The room and bathroom were clean and very comfortable. I would happily stay again. Very good value and with the option to cancel if my plans changed.

“A perfect place to stay 👌”
+GB0815 Travelodge Exeter M5 Hotel was easy to find with a car park alongside the hotel. On arrival I was greeted by Leah she was polite and made me feel welcome. I travel alone so it's important I feel safe and I certainly did here. My room was easy to find with great instructions from Leah. My room was amazing and everything I needed. It was spotless clean. Lovely beds with extra pillows. Bathroom was very clean and good size with a small bath which I am grateful for. I slept like a baby and heard no sound from the services across the road. Perfect. On check out I was greeted by Emma another lovely member of staff, very polite and bright 🌞 (happy) I would definitely stay here again it was perfect. I only stayed 1 night but you could stay here a lot longer and be happy 😊

“Clean & Tidy. Excellent Price”
+Checked in without any issues even though it was a change of shift. Staff very friendly and helpful when we asked about a taxi into the city providing us with one that arrived with 2 minutes. Room was very clean with plenty of towels. The bed was comfortable. Located next to the M5, so easy to find. Excellent value, will definitely stay again.

“Short Stay”
+Excellent location next to M5 with a petrol station adjacent for your onward journey. Clean room and bathroom with free tea and coffee facilities in the room. If hungry there is a place next door for meals and drink. Large car park with amble free spaces. Excellent value for money and can't fault my stay.
