Shakila Ahmed, Travelodge Spokeswoman said: “Our hotel teams receive thousands of unusual requests from business and leisure travellers. Where possible, the hotels teams go above and beyond to help customers however, there are some requests that they cannot help with. Such as, finding a Unicorn to help one romantic with his wedding proposal, ensuring there is a blue sky on the day of an important strategy meeting for an executive and moving a Travelodge room to the roof of the hotel so that the customer could sleep under the stars.”
