Travelodge by Wyndham Owen Sound ON

Staff were pleasant, helpful, and professional. Room was fine. Same with the "free" breakfast. Facility is clean and is in good repair. Bed and bedding were comfortable, towels are typical, shower worked well. Convenient location; it's right on the corner of two major roads, which can be congested. Nonetheless, our room was quiet (it faced the back). Wi-fi works well. We stayed during the Cobble Beach Concours, so it was full, and the staff handled everything well. Wall unit hair dryer didn't work but a backup was thoughtfuly provided in the closet.

HVAC unit was missing a knob, which affected adjustment; we didn't need to use it much anyway. The hotel offered online checkin, which was okay, but I spent a bit of time photographing and entering my Driver's Licence, only to have the front desk request to see it (so you can save some some time by not doing it in advance). I'm not a fan of Dynamic Pricing: we stayed Sunday night as well, and it was 2/3 the price of the Saturday night. But I suppose it's pretty common now. TV doesn't have "regular" cable; it's all streaming, likewise more common now. Likewise, we didn't use it much.

Efficient check in, comfort of bed

No instructions re: operation of TV Grout in bathroom needs cleaning

We liked having a downstairs room and close to parking. The breakfast was better than expected.

The air conditioner was stuck in manual mode and didn't automatically come on.

Great location. It was expected to be an average property, so no surprises. Wasn’t the cleanest but it was quiet and surprisingly the beds were comfortable. The a/c unit was not too loud and it did blast the room with coldness. Very low budget hotel but the price was right and there was availability on the long weekend

Not spotlessly clean, shabby interior definitely needs an update.
