Travelodge don't waste any money on heating. The tiny wall heater is on maximum and wouldn't defrost a tramp's socks.
But it might help if the window closed properly.
(And this hotel is a dump. Missing bulbs, filthy carpets, £5 per day to park (FFS), metal tape holding the carpet down, dirty linen in the corridors all day and night, no aerial for the telly, bedside 'thing' snapped off the wall leaving three holes, one towel, a shower that alternates between scalding and cold. Still, it has one good thing about it. It has reminded me why I don't like to stay in big chain hotels.)
I once had to leave my bed during the middle of the night while staying at a hotel in Houston because a family from the Middle East tried to cook a whole sheep in their bath but only to succeed in burning down the entire hotel wing.
I cant imagine what it said on their itemized bill.

Sounds like they've gone even further downhill since last I used them.
I kept a fan heater in the car in those days, for emergency use when the ice appeared inside the windows of the Travel Lodge.
