The Travelodge in Carlisle was a decent stay overall. The rooms were standard, although there was a faint smell of smoke upon entering. The staff were friendly and helpful, but the dining service was slow with subpar food quality. The location was convenient with easy access to parking, but the air conditioning was a bit disruptive. However, the hotel provided a homely feel and was surrounded by amenities within walking distance.

Returning to this hotel felt like going back to my old bedroom at my mom's after moving out 30 years ago. The rooms are clean and tidy, perfect for a good night's sleep, though they needed a good clean to be presentable. The service here goes above and beyond to make you feel welcome, even bringing food to our room near closing time. The location is ideal for a stay in Carlisle, right in the center, but the dining experience could use improvements to match other budget hotels. Overall, I would 100 percent recommend it and will return.

The hotel room was spacious and very clean, providing everything we needed, though the lack of enough towels for two guests and facing the noisy air con unit were drawbacks. On the bright side, the used bedding was promptly replaced, and the room was tidy overall.

The hotel is conveniently situated for easy access to the courts, with comfortable rooms that feature unusually high ceilings. Despite its origin as an office block, the hotel remains pleasantly quiet. The stay was typical of what you'd expect from a Travelodge, with clean rooms and a comfortable bed for a good night's sleep.
