TL breakfasts are cold cardboard boxes AIUI.
Not in all - the Newcastle one mentioned above had the "All you can eat" option and I did
It was actually pretty decent, not the best breakfast I've ever had but certainly not the worst.
True.
Some Travelodges now do eat all you can breakfast. Cheaper than Premier Inn eat all you can and I say that Premier Inn are well worth the extra money because the food is nicer and they have more options. Also nte, you don't need to stay in a Premier Inn to have a breakfast there. I often turn up to a Premier Inn just to have a breakfast. If you eat a lot, it's cheaper than buying several breakfasts elsewhere.
Premier Inn have a policy to always accommodate a bike 9as part of the 2012 Olympic legacy) and you can turn up at any hour to check in. Same as at a Travelodge, except, as mentioned, Travelodge sometimes overbook and you can get caught out. It's the busy Travelodges that get overbooked. Major tourist places like Norwich or York. I once used a TL near Norwich for a DIY 600 and made the route pass it early in the ride so I could check in and baggsy a room as I suspected it wuld be overbooked, as every other TL in the area was full. I was right!
AFAIK, Premier Inn don't overbook, but don't hold me to account over that!
Travelodge are often cheaper, but not always.
