There are long-term stays and then there are long-term stays and the number of nights the Davidsons have stayed at a Travelodge in England must be record-breaking. Between 1985 and 1997, this elderly English couple stayed permanently at the Newark Travelodge in Nottinghamshire, and then when a new hotel was opened nearby in 1997, they moved to the Grantham A1 Travelodge, conveniently located next to the motorway.

The crazy thing is that it seems to work out almost cheaper for this couple to live at the Travelodge--because they book a year ahead they always get the special rate of £15 a night--plus there are no surprise bills for heating in winter or airconditioning in summer. They have their room cleaned daily for nothing and get an endless supply of toiletries. The Grantham Travelodge is about to mount a plaque at the hotel to commemorate the tenth anniversary of the first stay by its most loyal customers.
