Travelodge Carlisle Todhills

We just needed a cheap stopover on our drive to Scotland and the location was good, being just off the M6 and fairly close to Carlisle. The exterior was very shabby, a car park with potholes and generally looked quite dodgy and unkempt. The reception area was tired but clean. Check in was quick. Our room was clean and tidy, basic and no frills, but totally adequate for our needs. It's located right near a busy motorway so there is some traffic noise but nothing too obtrusive. I had phoned in advance because I needed a ground floor room and the member of staff I spoke to was very friendly and helpful. The staff on reception when we checked in and checked out were polite but seemed bored and fed up. I can't imagine it being the most exciting job or the most exciting place to work so I don't blame them. We had no issues with the service or the room, and you get what you pay for, just cheap and basic, nothing in particular to recommend it other than that.

Dismal place, only booked it because we couldn't get anywhere else. Staff were friendly & room was clean. Worst sleep ever!! The room above must've had every floorboard loose, 45 minutes of it i went & complained but was told there was nothing they could do. Avoid this place!!!

No issue with the stay at the property. Outside approach road had potholes that had to be navigated around.

Stayed at this hotel for one night, never again. Had two rooms both of which were not very clean. Dust everywhere, marks all over one of the bathrooms & marks on the furniture. The chairs in both rooms were full of crumbs clearly not been cleaned for some time. The floors of the rooms were incredibly noisy when you walked on them & there were doors banging throughout the night. We arrived at around 10pm there were no outside lights at all, the car park was in complete darkness.

The receptionist here on our arrival was wonderful and very helpful Local Costa Coffee on the site staff were also wonderful! However Travel lodge itself was tired and had a strange “ chemical” smell which although faint was off putting If you are exhausted it is perfect stop being right on the M6 southbound but of course that means its very noisy- that was MY booking fault! Sorry wont stay again BUT your staff are WONDERFUL!!!!

Great stop on the way to the Highland’s. Requested a quiet room via email and was given one tucked out of the way, which was perfect. Room was clean, bed comfortable, road a little noisy but only if window open. Lovely young lady on reception. Can’t beat a Travelodge !

…. while working away from home its nice to go from your own home to a hotel that is like your second home. Always clean and tidy all staff are willing to go the extra mile and nothings ever to much to ask for. Clean towels provided daily if requested. With working nightshift we never catch the room been cleaned by the morning cleaners due to sleeping but when im up for the day i have asked for the room to be cleaned and theres never no issue, highly recomend.

I used Todhills to put family up for a long weekend away as my place is too small, friendly staff always smiling, with lots of good mornings and good evenings. Clean, comfortable, would defiantly use it again, and will recommend to other people as well.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Very stuffy and hot on arrival due to sun on Windows all day. Freezing at night with only thin duvet and hard pillows. Paid almost £100 for one night but would have done better in an Airbnb. Lesson learned.
