Second stay here. It's a cheap hotel that offers a cosy, warm room and a good night's sleep. Will stay again if overnighting in Carlisle.

Liked: Staff & service
Staff was friendly. Room was ok but when I moved the bed found there to be rubbish under bed including a cotton ear bud! And no soap or shower gel provided. Really wanted to love this place and it was going well until the no soap and rubbish under the bed were found.
We have stayed here several times, the staff are helpful and friendly, great value for money, we will continue to use this hotel when visiting Carlisle
I had booked 4 rooms in total for 8 friends for 4 nights. Took them 2 hours to find the fourth booking.
Arrived home to find I had a total of £70 parking fines although I had registered the hired vehicle on the hotel registration form at reception.
Sent 4 emails to the hotel with no response. £70 taken out of my account from the hired van company because they received the fines also.

Liked: Staff & service, room comfort
The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. The hotel had a few things that looked tired or needed fixing like a light on the stairs and lots of potholes in the carpark. Didn’t have breakfast. The room was clean and warm as was the rest of the hotel. There was a small step into the bathroom that was easy to trip on and some boxing by the foot of the foot that was the same.
