Nice review Alan. Looks like a pleasant place to stay. Seems like the people on the front lines are the ones that get all the slings and arrows for things they have no control over. Yet they still are the ones that go above and beyond to make your stay enjoyable. Always like to praise the ones that do that in spite of the troubles. 👍👍

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Yes they do and it is those people I always feel so sorry for and they are always the ones on the least money too. Either way we are not going to kick up a fuss and we still had a great time. Thanks so much for watching, cheers Alan

[@Packsalot]

Nice review. Looked like a fantastic place for most of what they had to offer. Very nice. Those breaded mushrooms looked great. I'd love those. Too bad about your couple wrinkles in your stay. My wife and I are also very picky with where we stay. There are definitely some hotel chains that are on our do not stay ever list. LOL. Take care and have a great day.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks very much for watching and a nice visit for us, a couple of minor issues but nothing to get us worked up about and one thing I always look forward too there is the food, always nice, especially the breakfast, cheers Alan

[@highlandexplorer990]

Wow 🤩 This Premier Inn Plus room looks amazing! I love the comfy chair and the little Nespresso machine 😍

[@AlanMETALMAN]

We always enjoy a stay there, especially the one at Cockermouth but this was the first time we had stopped in one of their Plus rooms there. To be fair we had a good time and the food was great, no real problems at all from us. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@DouglasWallis-xw1dl]

Nice room decent 2 meals and great parking all for a good price💪👍

[@AlanMETALMAN]

For me you cannot go wrong, decent price for the room and the food and in a good location too. Appreciate you watching, cheers Alan

[@ervinslens]

Lovely review Alan, meals are just fantastic! Everything looks really nice and clean! 👌👌

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thank you kindly and one thing you can always guarantee there is cleanliness, which is a must for us. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@LetsGoLiz]

Great review! The room looked great and the meals looked amazing too! Thank you for sharing!

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Appreciate you stopping by and we had a great stay there, so much so, we will be returning, cheers Alan

[@lizadeavina23]

Great video nice sharing good job ❤❤

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Really nice of you to watch and comment, really appreciate it, cheers Alan

[@Wanna.Wander]

I love the way you introduced your video with the music and recap. The room and linens look spotless and plush. Nice rooms! Love the purple lighting effects for ambience. I am also gluten intolerant, so I have a hard time finding healthy food options when others are cooking my meal. Glad y'all found the place suitable and free breakfast to boot! 💜 Great value for the extra plate! im enjoying your reviews. Another great review Alan! Hello to Mrs Metalman as well

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Yes, Mrs Metalman was diagnosed at celiac this year so has to have 100% gluten free food and man it sucks for her, especially as I can eat what I want, so sometimes I feel a bit guilty eating stuff she used to love but cannot eat now. Thankfully she had a great time here and as well as enjoying the hotel, she was able to enjoy the food too. Real nice of you to stop by, cheers Alan

[@thegeordiefellwalker8878]

a decent overall experience by the looks of things 👌 lovely & modern 👌

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Been there a few times and always had a canny stay but this was the first time stopping in one of their Premier Plus rooms and to be fiat it was another good stay, so we will be back for sure. Thanks very much for watching, cheer Alan

[@MinuteontheMountain]

You always do a great job on your hotel review videos. Thanks for sharing, Alan.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Glad you like them and thank you so much for stopping by, real good of you and always appreciated, cheers Alan

[@KatInTheNorth]

What a nice, clean place, with all the necessities in your room. Very nice! That was great that they offered gluten free foods, but it’s too bad the waitress couldn’t remember which food was which. That’s how you learn though. Thanks so much for sharing. Have a great weekend! God Bless!

[@AlanMETALMAN]

It was a great nights stay and the food as always there was great, something I always look forward too. No problem at all with the waitress, who was new and trying her hardest, so we were not bothered at all. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@NorwayHikesTrails]

Nice video Alan. Thank you for sharing 😊

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Glad you enjoyed it and real good of you to stop by, appreciate it, cheers Alan

[@vedrana0127]

Great review Alan. The room looks really nice, clean and comfortable. I like the food, looks so delicious and makes me hungry 🤣👍

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Glad you enjoyed it and yes, as well as the room the food was nice too, so we were all happy, which ensures we will be back again in the near future. Thanks you very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

Your room looks very comfortable! Also your meals looked great! I'm glad you had a good experience for the most part.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

It was to be fair and although we have stopped there before, this was our first experience of a 'Plus' room at this hotel and we had a good time. The food there is always great, something I always look forward to when we are stopping there. Appreciate you stopping by, cheers Alan

[@StepsbyKaatje]

I also like putting my feet up! 😊 And I agree on the bed looking smaller ... It does look like a very comfortable place to stay! All the best! Kaat

[@AlanMETALMAN]

To be fair we always have a real nice stay at a Premier Inn and a good nights sleep too. The food there is always good, so something I always look forward too when we book in there. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@gallivantinggalantes]

Hello Alan, I like a Premiere Inn, looks a very nice room. I like the expresso machine. The blue light above the bed was very novel and nice that the area smell very fresh. Shame the WiFi was up to scratch. Shame the problems occurred with meals. Lovely review x Take care x Julie and Tony x

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Where ever we go on out travels we always look for a Premier Inn first and nearly always have a great stay. The one at Cockermouth is a favourite but this was the first time we have stopped in one of their 'Plus rooms' there and we really enjoyed it. A couple of little niggles but we did not mind. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@JenniferLupine]

Nice review Alan! Your room looked very comfortable and the food looked delicious! I’ve noticed a change in some chain hotels that we’ve stayed at the past few years… many of them seem short staffed with just one person working at the front desk. The independent hotels seem locally owned with staff that are better trained. Great to share your experience at this hotel. 👌👍 Cheers, Jen

[@AlanMETALMAN]

You are so correct and we have also noticed the same too. To be fair we have stopped at this hotel before and always had a good time, which is why we come back but this was the first time stopping in one of their Plus rooms there. Thanks very much for watching and have a great weekend, cheers Alan

[@Dominic.Minischetti]

I love your reviews brother! And that looks like a great place! I was drooling over that breakfast! Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day! Thanks for sharing brother, I enjoyed watching! 👍🏻

[@AlanMETALMAN]

I never miss my breakfast and to be fair, I never miss any meal but the unlimited breakfast there is always a winner in my book, I never leave that table hungry lol. Thanks so much for stopping by, cheers Alan

[@Dominic.Minischetti]

@@AlanMETALMAN 😂 We are cut from the same cloth my brother!

[@ReasontoLiveAdventures]

That seems like a beautiful room. A lot nicer than many of the places here in the US. 🤙

[@AlanMETALMAN]

We always enjoy a stay there never had a bad night and always get good food and dam friendly service, which is why we always come back. Thanks so much for stopping by, cheers Alan

[@GENerationXplorers]

Oh i like the fridge and the sound of ultimate wifi, nice to see them hanging up your Grandsons artwork! 😂Esspresso machine is a nice touch and the telly is nice and big. Very clean, well specced bathroom. The breakfast looked great quality. Pity about the ultimate wifi and check in issues. A great review, looked top notch.👍

[@AlanMETALMAN]

To be fair neither was an issue with us and we always enjoy a stay there, the room is always comfortable and spotless and the food is always bang on, which is why we are repeat customers I suppose. Thanks so much for stopping by, cheers Alan

[@GENerationXplorers]

@@AlanMETALMAN does look very nice, I did a search on the prices mind! 😱😱

[@AlanMETALMAN]

@@GENerationXplorers - we initially booked it in advance and it was for April (we changed it as the weather was bad) and it was £35 for a standard room (Sunday night) and only £7 more for the Premier Plus room. Sunday nights are always the best value and if you book well in advance, out of school holiday times or summer times, you can still get a decent deal. :o)

[@JauneMacReady]

Ooh, that actually looks quite posh! I may have to upgrade the next time I'm away 👍 Thanks for this 😃

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Cannot remember exactly what it was but it was something like £10 extra, which was not too bad and we enjoyed it as well. Thanks so much for watching, cheers Alan

[@ItStartsWithAStep]

Looks like a nice room, i do like their beds at premier inn :) cool you have free wifi :) I like the fact theres a bath in there too :) Looks like a nice room. Food looks tasty especially the sundae :D nice looking breakfast too :D

[@AlanMETALMAN]

We always look for a Premier Inn if we are on our travels as you always get a great nights sleep and when we are at Cockermouth the food is always great too, so a double bonus for us. Thanks so much for watching, cheers Alan

[@DestinationEarth]

You always give very good reviews of these places! I'll have to start doing the same. Glad you had a great stay. Both the rooms and the food looked great - even if there was a mix up for Mrs. Metalman!

[@AlanMETALMAN]

No problem with the mix up, these things happened and nothing was going to spoil a good say or a real nice meal either. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@GazianoOutdoors]

Looked good to me mate , plenty of room, always good to have a comfortable chair too, food looked nice too , that fridge would come In handy for my beers 🍻 good review as always mate 👍 atb

[@AlanMETALMAN]

To be honest we have always had a good stay there but this was our first time stopping at one of the Plus rooms there, which was a decent experience. Thanks so much for watching, cheers Alan

[@ladyintheskyuk]

Great review, Alan. 👍

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Glad you enjoyed it and real nice of you to stop by, appreciate it, cheers Alan

[@OthmarsVlog]

fantastic upload 👍💪💥

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks for the visit, real good of you to watch and comment, cheers Alan

[@TourWithBen]

Hey there, I did my own review of the Premier inn on my channel (very new lol) and you are right there beds are amazing and I must say the extra I paid for the plus room was well worth it. Nice channel bud. Subscribed

[@AlanMETALMAN]

It was a birthday treat for me and I was a bit disappointed with the size but I think that was down to the council, as I know they faced a lot of local opposition about it being built there. Thanks very much for watching and taking the time to leave a comment, appreciate it, cheers Alan

[@PinnedonPlaces]

Hey Alan, a great review video. We do try and pay the extra pennies to stay in the plus rooms when we can (money depending ofc), they are much more lavish and comfortable, mind you we're happy with Travelodge or other establishments. Aslong as it's clean and has the amenities you need everything's good! The room here at Cockermouth looks really nice to be fair, they have furnished it nicely, nice to see the toiletries too - it's the little things that make it more I guess hehe! Great that you've got the adjoining Brewers Fayre, the brekkie looked great! It's great to hear your honest reviews, nothing is ever perfect eh? :D Aww, poor lass but atleast you and Mrs Metalman are so understanding! A great video Alan, thank you for sharing!

[@AlanMETALMAN]

With us both being retired now we have to watch the pennies a lot more now, so we tend to use the Plus rooms as a special treat like birthdays and to be fair they are worth the extra money. We were all so sorry for the new lass on the evening when we were having our food, she really tried her best and was so friendly and helpful but she should have had support, while she was still training but no way were we going to make a fuss, not her fault at all. I always try and do a balanced review and show everything we see, then others can make their own mind up if it is for them. Thanks so much for stopping by, cheers Alan

[@WanderingwithWatto]

Good review Alan. We use Premier inns where we can but have not done the Plus room as of yet. Good to see the meals were good. I think about the best we’ve stayed at was in Whitehaven. Very good. Cheers 👍🏻

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Now that was interesting as I got told the one at Whitehaven was not the best but just goes to show everyone had different opinions. Main thing is you enjoyed it lol! Thanks so much for watching, cheers Alan

[@JohnAmes]

Great video my friend

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thank you very much John, always nice of you to stop by, cheers Alan

[@shellvlogs132]

We prefer these plus rooms to the standard ones, didn’t realise you can get plus rooms with baths too, every one we’ve been in has only had the waterfall shower and no bath. Great review 😊

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Only stopped in the plus room at Cockermouth and Keswick and I am sure they both had baths. We both love a soak in the bath on an evening but first thing in the morning, I love to jump out of bed and into a shower :o)

[@billygoatfilms7531]

Hi Alan and a fantastic review of the Premier Inn, Cockermouth. I’ve only stayed twice at this particular one and am due back in July. Both times Ive booked the Plus Room (room number 221 each time), and like you I’ve never got the bloody ultimate WiFi to work. I’ve been down to reception and they couldn’t get it to work! However, again like you I’m more than happy with the standard WiFi. When I return in July I’ve booked the normal basic room as I don’t really need a coffee machine, fridge with water, chocolates or a comfy arm chair. I thought the restaurant was very good but limited in choice and last time I finished with jam roll poly and ice cream but got custard instead? Now having just watched this I can’t wait to return. Cheers Mike 👍

[@AlanMETALMAN]

We have stopped a lot of times at this Premier Inn but out first stay there in one of the Plus rooms. The WIFI was not an issue for me so as much as an annoyance, they gave me a code but nowhere did it ask for a code to be inputted. We both have the same main course every time we go there, so adventurous we are not lol. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@Sanniz]

Great review Alan and I feel sorry for that young Lady. At least they did a new meal, when misstake was discovered. Else it looked great. I thought it should been an outside part too. Like you done in earlier reviews. Wish Mrs Metalman and you a great evening. Cheers 🦇🖤🖤🖤🖤🦇

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Yes, we felt sorry for her too, especially as she was really nice and friendly as well as trying her hardest, so we were not going to kick up a fuss. I would have done more filming outside if we had gone straight there but we got there late after a walk and we were all feeling tired but in a good way. Thanks so much for watching, cheers Alan

[@FXWalesAnnaAlf]

Hi Alan good to hear your honest review and nice to see a Premier plus room, good that you get a better wifi upgrade with it too. Love the light on the headboard and the expresso machine and chocolates 😃 The rainfall shower is great and so is the air conditioning. The Brewers Fayre looked lovely and the 3 course evening meal looked great for the extra £2, as did the breakfast. Shame about the wifi and smaller bed and also a shame about the new girl getting mixed up about the gluten free for Mrs M. But good that you would stay there again 🙂👍~ Anna

[@AlanMETALMAN]

We all felt so sorry for the new lass that was serving on, it was only her second or third night there and she was working by herself at first and she was great, so nice and friendly, really trying her hardest but there should have been someone there with her all the time until she was fully trained, talk about being thrown in the deep end. We were not going to complain and still enjoyed the food, as well as having a great night and great stay. Thanks so much for watching, take care, cheers Alan

[@The_Brit_Girls]

Ooh, Premiere Posh! Haha, not a fan of modern art then Alan? 🤣🤣 I liked the modern styling and that the room had ultimate wi-fi included. The most important thing to me is cleanliness. Glad to see it ticked that box. It's handy having a fridge. Those ice cream sundaes looked delish! It was disappointing that the super-fast wi-fi was not as advertised. Btw, really liked your office set-up. Very cool 😎

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks so much for stopping by and to be honest we are big fans of Premier Inns, as you always know what you are in for the the food, especially the 'meal deal' is always good and dam good value as well. I can confirm, those ice cream sundaes were indeed delish! , cheers Alan

[@o.bsoutdoors3871]

Hi Alan, We stayed at this premier inn about 16 years ago, it has come a long way since then! Nice to see the plus rooms, are they much more expensive than the standards? Looks like you had a great time overall. The food looked amazing 😋. Definitely worth the extra £2 for pudding! Bargain 🍨🍦😊👍. Have a great weekend, Shell and Pete 🎉

[@AlanMETALMAN]

We really enjoy it there but the first time stopping in one of the Plus rooms there and to be fair it was very good too but something we would only use as a treat I think. I can confirm that extra £2 spend on that desert was the best £2 I think I have ever spent lol. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@ms.kayak7seas]

Hi Alan, I am back haha It seems sophisticated and stylish hotel room with no heavy furniture. I am glad you all enjoy staying in oh..yes, there are often mishaps when a new worker is in charge and they will learn from Is there any option to select a room with waterfront or higher room/suit? How about pet friendly? Well done as always with your honesty! Thank YOU.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Welcome back and they do not accept pets at any of the Premier Inn hotels, which is a problem for some but not for us. They are normally two story hotels, so not option for anything higher but that suites Mrs Metalman lol. Really nice of you to stop by, cheers Alan

[@Herfortz]

0:34 Nice ...... 1:40 I like this room ...... 3:00 Bathroom look's GREAT !!!! ...... 4:15 I like that ..... 4:40 Let's EAT !!!!! ....... 5:20 Food look's great .... 6:10 Oh YES !!!!!! .... 10:25 Excellent.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Always enjoy a stop there and we always eat there too, food is always good and at a reasonable price too, it always comes with a free pint as well, so that always gets my vote lol. Thanks very much for stopping by, cheers Alan

[@stevebuttery6757]

Hi Alan, love these reviews you do, another fair and informed review. I would certainly stay there after your review. Personally I like the premier inns, you know what you are getting and in many cases they are nicer than some more expensive hotels. Love the comment about the picture in the room 🤣Maybe not perfect but like you say, you rarely get that but you still gave it top marks. Already looking forward to the next one.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

If we are travelling anywhere in the country and have to stop over the first place we look is if there is a Premier Inn close by, as just as you said, you know exactly what you are going to get and I like that. We are at the Ripon Inn next weekend and reading TripAdvisor there are some very mixed reviews, so Mrs Metalman is already saying "I wish you had just booked a Premier Inn" - time will tell. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@morgsjoboo2247]

Hi Alan Great review, we always found Premier Inns great (just a shame they aren't dog friendly) The premier plus room looks great, nice little extras Love a Premier Inn breakfast Shame you had a few problems checking in and with the ultimate wi fi. Great value £2 for dessert. Good to hear gluten free option was good A fabulous review Have a great weekend Morgs Jo and Boo 🐕 ❤

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Totally agree, they are the first hotel we look for if we are travelling around, as you always know what you are going to get and the food it normally top notch as well. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@OutandaboutwithAndy]

Good review, Alan. Everything looked clean and well presented, which is all you need for an overnight stay. The food is a good deal. Did you want so toast to go with your butter on your breakfast the next morning? 😂

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Haha, I always enjoy a canny bit of toast and the unlimited breakfast there always hits the spot with me and ensures I stay full for the rest of the day lol. Thanks so much for stopping by, cheers Alan

[@Butchyboysadventures]

Yess alan pal good look around there buddy not perfect but it was close is good enough 👍 and must add you are the first person I've ever known not to like beans or tomatoes on a breaky food looked delicious to be fair well in mate good review and hope your Rippon stay is a better one 👍 one of my friends wife has that same thing miss metal man has and they also get lots of mix up and her food not being on the roster but pleased they sorted it for her in the end buddy 👍

[@AlanMETALMAN]

I wish I did like beans or tomatoes, as they are both supposed to be very good for you but just cannot get them down us at all lol. Aye at the Rippon Inn next Sunday and looking at TripAdvisor, sounds a bit of a mixed bag, so we will see how it goes. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@DAoutdoors]

HI Alan, you can't go wrong with a premier inn. I don't think I have ever had a bad experience in any of them and I have stayed in many over the years.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

It the first place we look for every time we travel any where as you know what you are going to get. This was the first time we had stayed in one of the plus rooms at Cockermouth, so wanted to see if it was worth the extra money. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@ashleyjarnold]

Very comprehensive review, Alan, and very fair. I did laugh at your art comment, though that's about the standard I could produce! Internet connection should be a bit priority for hotels as everyone needs it, so I was surprised you had an issue there. The food looked very tasty and like me, no beans!! We got home on Tuesday night, and stayed in 6 different hotels, all very different, mostly ok. Space was the big thing for us as we were living out of our cases as some very so small. Looks like your room had great space. Have you been back out hiking again and how are you feeling? Regards, Ashley and Andrea

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks very much for watching and I will be looking forward to seeing your travels and no doubt you will be very busy of the next couple of weeks. Feeling like my old self again now but still only climbed 3 new Wainwrights this year, which I am putting down to the weather. I know some will say just go for it but when you are doing a 5 hour round drive, I do not want to tramp around in the rain when I get there, especially walking by myself, so still keeping my fingers crossed for warm, sunny and dry weather, cheers Alan

[@ashleyjarnold]

You have to listen to your body, Alan, and do what's practically possible. Also, it's all about enjoying it too - no point in being a slave to the wainwrights, I think. I'm going to try and get a bit fitter in the next 2 months, hoping for a heatwave in september. We walked a lot on the holiday, and I want to keep the momentum going. Processing all the footage is going to be a tough job but the family expects results! Regards, Ashley

[@phillewis3108]

You were 12 minutes from my house! You could have come here for your evening meal, or we could have taken you to the Curry Awards winner for the whole north of England!

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Haha, nice one Phil, you live in a real nice area but as regards food, me and Mrs Metalman are very conservative eaters, occasionally we may have a pizza or lasagne, which for us, is the height of exotic eating. We have tried curry before but neither of us liked it at all but if you do, you are real lucky to have such a top rated place right on your doorstep. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@DouglasWallis-xw1dl]

Book me in any time

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Haha, yes us too, always a good stay there :o)

[@christinem3375]

Good to see another review which is always in depth showing the highs and lows of your stay. The room looked really nice, though like you I'm not too sure about the art on the wall though I have seen much worse ! If its clean comfortable & quiet its already a winner in my eyes. The food looked fabulous, well cooked, nicely presented and great value for the nameless person who fancied the extra course haha ... and why not 🤣I totally agree about "head office" never there with sufficient support and not having to face customers with a justified complaint (or several). Perhaps just too many niggles took the shine off what was otherwise a great stay & good to know the brand is consistent with their quality. Looking forward to seeing your stay in Ripon and what to generally expect from the Inn Collection. Hope you have a great time Best wishes 😃

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks very much for watching Christine and we still enjoyed out stay, only felt so sorry for the two ladies that were having issues, with lack of support and lack of proper training, not their fault at all. The food there is always nice and I always try my best not to eat too much but an extra course for only £2....it had to be done lol! Cheers Alan

[@BeforeIKicktheBucket1]

Nice review, great food!! Wouldn't mind staying there LOL... I was just surprised with the "Premier Plus .." 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 It sounds so...airline-ny ..are they copying from the airlines nowadays LMAO...Too similar to "Economy Plus" ha ha ha...

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Haha, yes, it does have that kind of ring to it lol. One thing we really like about Premier Inn is you know what you are going to get and 19 times out of 20 it is always spot on. Thanks very much for stopping by, cheers Alan
