A Welsh adult actress has defended filming a porn video at a Travelodge, claiming sex workers "face injustice and discrimination that other industries don't". Lacey Amour, 23, and 27 other people allegedly went to a Travelodge in Cobalt Business Park in Newcastle on December 12 last year to film, reports the BBC.
According to the Sun, the hotel giant said it would not hesitate to take legal action if it found that there was a breach of its terms and conditions when the group used the hotel to capture the X-rated footage, which allegedly included the hotel's corridors and lifts.

A video was shared online that showed several people performing inside the hotel and Travelodge reportedly did not know the group had filmed pornography until after they had left.
The group's activity appears to go against Travelodge's terms and conditions listed on its website, which state the hotel can terminate a booking if a guest "conducts commercial activity or activity that seeks to gain profit without written consent". Travelodge stated it was aware filming had taken place without its "authorisation".
A spokesperson for Travelodge told the BBC it was investigating and said: "We will have no hesitation in terminating any future bookings and taking legal action if we believe an individual is in breach of our terms and conditions."
But Ms Amour, who has nearly a quarter of a million followers on Instagram, denied that any filming was done outside the bedrooms during their stay on December 12, insisting that it all happened behind closed doors.
She told the BB: "This is one of the longest-running industries [adult content creation] to exist and we face injustice and discrimination that other industries don't. We are all professionals." She added that they were "just trying to do our jobs".
