    "Had a lovely stay, would stay again, and the price is great value. The best hotel we've ever stayed at." (108845252)

    Nice, warm and cosy. Friendly staff. clean.

    No bad points at all.

    "We don't look for the red carpet treatment when we travel and the Nightowl gave us just what we wanted, clean and tidy, bright, no noise and value for money" (108182122)

    Clean and tidy. staff were brilliant with us and went that little bit further because they knew it was our 38th aniversary, the flowers are still looking good 10 days after.

    Good enough directions but fell at the last hurdle because nowhere could we see a "NIGHTOWL" logo on buildings or grounds

    "Done the job, but would of liked bit more comfort but ok for the price." (108144763)

    Clean basic rooms

    Slow Check in. No sign to check in. No lifts.

    "Allthough cheap certainly not value for money. The worst place i have ever stayed in, left ASAP the next morning." (108396379)

    Dirty, rooms like prison cells, poorly decorated.

  • 7/10 R.h. ( Volwassen paar) 

    van Aylesbury , GB  op  6 oktober 2009

    "OK" (108183570)

    Relatively cheap and cheerful - no frills but basics OK.

    Price has gone up since last year since it is still £34.99 including VAT but VAT went down from 17.5% to 15% so should be cheaper. A stealth rise!

    "Based on all the above this was ok for one night (single room but doubles are much bigger and ensuite)very much a truckstop / motel overall nt bad for money" (108342642)

    Price was very good. I had a late check in and the lady on duty was very friendly and helpful.Easy to find. Room was clean but basic. TV worked ok and there was tea and coffee in the room. Considering location was very quiet

    Single room was very small but ok for one night. Shared bathroom, however no one in other room so that was ok. Furniture and bedding a little dated. Corridors etc had feel of a hostel, lacking in pictures or refinements

    "You get what you pay for in this world, but I still think the extra hidden charge for the lorry parking should be made clearer in your pricing details." (108453289)

    All facilities on one site. Also friendliness of staff.

    Poor check-in procedure. Misleading information relating to FREE CAR PARK, this applies to cars only. I had a small HGV and had to pay an additional £15.50 which had I realised sooner would have influenced me to book elsewhere, I will NOT be using Nightowl Carlisle again. TV / Freeview did not work properly.

    "It was adequate for the purpose of our stay." (108845223)

    Convenient for travel to evening event. Nicely decorated bathroom.

    Mix-up with our booking - but was resolved. TV control not working - but it wasn't important.

  • 7/10 Jacquie ( Volwassen paar) 

    van Nuneaton , GB  op  23 juli 2009

    "I felt very uncomfortable when the cleaner came in to sort out the room but other than that it was a very good stay.It was very good that we could get a meal so late at night and it was ok." (108954249)

    Very reasonable and easily accessible. Acommodation was adequate and clean. The bed was comfortable and the tv worked well. It wasn't particularly noisy and even though it was after 10pm we were able to buy an adequate hot meal.The staff were very friendly and the food was very inexpensive and good value for money.

    A bit mouldy in the bathroom but the water was very hot. The main bad thing which happened was that someone walked into the room to clean it at 7am which was very enthusiastic and not quite what we wanted or expected as we had had such a late night the night before.

    Price.

    van Stafford , GB  op  7 juli 2009

    "Not good." (107392786)

    Cheap

    We were not expecting palatial surroundings given the tarrif but had booked expecting a clean, adequate room for the night. The room was not clean (top drawer in chest of drawers contained 2 un-opened yogurts with an expiry date in early April - date of our stay was early July!). We had hot water coming from the cold (and hot) water taps. There was a large spider in the bath despite the room having just been "serviced" as we arrived. The toilet cistern was dirty and the place just had a very sad and neglected air about it.Cigarrette burns in the carpet and a vertical blind with several slats missing and some hanging off the runners all added to this depressed air.

    "Good location. Easy to find. Good value for money. The best value available in or close to the normally rather expensive Lake District accomodations." (107835895)

    Staff very friendly and efficient in check-in and -out.

    Room doors are a bit heavy to open due to strong springs, but that is manageable.

  • 9/10 Irene ( Volwassen paar) 

    van Swindon , GB  op  14 juni 2009

    "Very good overall." (107780570)

    Cheap and cheerful! We stayed here one night en route to daughter's wedding in Scotland and again on the way back. The staff were extremely helpful to us regarding my elderly mother and went out of their way to ensure she was comfortable. Staff even lent her their mobile phone in case she needed help during the night. The bar was great to relax in and watch TV after a long drive (as it should be in a truck stop!) The breakfast was fabulous (and cheap)with unlimited tea and coffee!

    Not most luxurious I've ever stayed in but then we didn't expect it to be. We got what we paid for.

    there was none it was what we expected

    Tidy and perfectly adequate. Pleasant staff and clientele.

    TV was misconnected and not working but I was able to fix it. Bathroom extractor fan not working. Breakfast was too "rich"; a selection of cereal and wholemeal toast would have been appreciated.

    van Stafford , GB  op  27 oktober 2008

    "The accommodation was basic but clean warm and friendly staff - i would definitely use it again." (107654811)

    The staff were very helpful and friendly and being able to take the dog was a bonus. The accommodtion was VERY basic but clean and warm and considering it is a Truck Stop, operating 24 hours a day, it was not noisy at all - i thought it would be with drivers coming and going at all hours but i didn't hear anything! We did not use the restaurant or bar because of the times we arrived and departed so cannot comment on them. The family rooms are 2 interconnecting rooms rather than 1 big one which is also a bonus as you don't keep the children awake watching the TV after it is time for them to sleep.

    Bathrooms are a bit mouldy - need a lick of paint or better ventilation but on the whole very clean and more than adequate for our needs.

    "Accomodation was worse standard than any other Budget hotel we have used. Walls were simple painted brick and gave the feel of a prison cell. Very noisy outside from early hours as used largely by HGV drivers." (107282036)

    In Carlisle where we wanted to stay.

    Too Basic even at charged rate.

    "Recommended if you are on a budget" (107296866)

    Clean, tidy, good location. Staff very helpful

    Very basic accommodation but at £40 a night what do you expect

  • 9/10 Renee ( Jong paar) 

    van Offton , GB  op  18 augustus 2008

    "The rooms at the Nightowl are basic, no-frills rooms. At first you can be put off by the garish decor and prison-like appearence but when you look past it, they offer exactly what you need for a clean, comfortable, cheap one night stop over. I wouldn't want to stay more than a couple of nights just as a stop gap but for that it's perfect." (107294052)

    Has tv, hot shower, towels, comfy bed and tea making facilities in the room. Is also very affordable.

    The building is next to a truckers fuel stop, the 'reception' is inside the shop, pay kiosk at the side of the building - it's all very rough around the edges and everso slightly 'League of Gentlemen-esk'! Signage and directions to the hotel are slightly amiss, we drove past it at first.

    "Directions to the hotel were wrong. There was no nameboard outside the building. As a result we wasted half an hour and a lot of petrol looking for the place. The receptionist thought that was funny, we didn't. Didn't feel we got value for money We were given a 'smoking' room when we had specifically asked for 'non-smoking'. We do not sleep well with the smell of stale tobacco." (99250127)

    Beds comfortable Fullsize kettle provided Plenty of hot water

    Tatty decoration, paint directly on brick and bits chipped off everywhere Shabby room -- felt like a hostel No underblankets -- sheets directly on the mattress tend to pull off in the night Expensive for a room only, breakfast was extra Noisy location

    "We arrived to discover the Nightowl is actually a truck stop ? the reception also doubles as the shop checkout and the truck drivers check in as well, There was a que of lorry drivers waiting to book in, and the lady on the reception / Till seemed to be struggling to cope with so many customers, We had a child with us and were provided with a rickety camp bed, although the bedding was fresh. Overall the general image of this place is a typical seedy motel, BUT if all you need is a bed, then i suppose it is adequate, That said, you could actually book a room at the travel in for less money (booked in advance) ?" (107154846)

    Clean towels offered each morning

    The whole building looks a little scruffy, the rooms are not particularly bright, the bathroom was only marginally better than a public loo.

    "I wanted something cheap and cheerful to attend a wedding in Gretna, and it certainly was. The bride and groom ended up staying there too, and the staff went out of their way to make them comfortable, couldn't do enough for them. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Night Owl to anyone, or in visiting again." (107139254)

    Clean, tidy rooms, with TV and kettle. Comfortable bar downstairs, 24 hour shop very convenient. And the friendliest, most helpful staff I've ever met. Lovely, lovely people.

    My only criticism is that it's not very well signposted. I was looking for a sign that says 'Night Owl' but it's not marked as such.

    Bed was very comfortable, good quality clean sheets, all round pretty good.

    Although we asked for a non smoking room we were given a smoking one but there was no lingering smell of smoke, it was clean, so we didnt ask to be moved.

    "altho the staff were very friendly it seems in our opinion a truckers stop.i think it serves its purpose for that reason..howeva if stayin with kids i find the accomodation not of standard.we luckily were out all day and only returned to sleep and bath as we were attending a wedding at gretna.i feel if the decor was updated and cleanliness was of a higher standard then i would return as it was central for attending a gretna wedding and certainly would be value for money if the small changes were put in place." (108057095)

    friendly staff plenty hot running water and a fresh cooked english fry up.beds were clean

    outside was not sign posted and we found no sign stateing it was called the night owl.we drove past looking at the dirty windows hopeing that it was not the place we were actually staying.the room was dated room with 70 style blue tiles in bathroom with dated yellow painted bedroom.blinds were filthy and room in need of a good spring clean.the room was a stinking of stale smoke as it was a designanted smoking room which was never mentioned on booking...if we were aware any hotel allowed smoking anywhere inside its premises we certainly would not of booked as we do not smoke and avoid it at all times
