Alston Vacation Rentals

"Room was not clean in the slightest. It was tidy and ill give them that but marks all over the walls, spider webs everywhere and rust and mould all over our bath. Staff were nice enough but there wasnt a member of staff anywhere to be seen when we were trying to check out. We didnt get breakfast or parking so cant speak on that."

"Wouldn’t hesitate to book here again and would thoroughly recommend. The welcome and facilities were first class and the service from Kyle was faultless."

"Great for a bargain overnight stay for a single person. Bed was comfy, carpet was new, everything was clean and I'm happy to know I've stayed in one of Carlisle's historic buildings in such a central location. Man on reception was polite and helpful, manned all night, and as I left in the morning breakfast area looked inviting. Overnight parking on the street wasn't too far away, unlimited between 6pm and 8.30am."

"Such a beautiful hotel in an amazing location. Felt like luxury after a hard day hiking. Superbly helpful staff and a very comfortable room."

"My wife and I recently stayed here (April 28, 2026). The check-in process was quick and easy and the young lady checking me in was helpful and professional. The restaurant and 24-hour bar area near the check-in was filled with construction workers as was their vehicles (I have nothing against construction workers, I am just describing my experience). The downstairs area seemed dark and dingy and in need of a facelift. Upon receiving our room key, we proceeded to the third floor and opened our room. The flooring was vinyl laminate and the room was small. The flooring was extremely sticky as if alcohol or soda had been spilled. The floors had not been mopped or cleaned prior to our arrival. The bathroom door had a strip of black mold running along the bottom and the bathroom floor and shower area all ran together. I opted to leave the window open to try and let fresh air in since the room smelled of mold and was musky. What a mistake that was. I forgot the bar downstairs was open 24-hours. Throughout the night, men were heard arguing, fighting, and vomiting loudly non-stop. Then around 4am, the men decided to see who could bark like a dog the loudest. It sounded like a dog pound outside. My wife asked me why were there dogs fighting outside at 4am and I explained to her it was humans, not dogs. I the United States, we have a hotel chain called motel 6. If you want a cheap room with no amenities and probably not the cleanest, you go to motel 6. This is worse than motel 6."

"Fantastic nights sleep. Hotel was immaculate. Parking was available at the rear of the hotel - make sure your sat nav doesn’t take you to the front like mine did. Hotel staff helped with directions when I contacted them."

"Yes beautiful"

"The room was very clean and tidy. Breakfast was great i will stay there again"

"Great stay, very pleasant staff, excellent breakfast"
