The staff were friendly and helpful and the location ideal for me, as was the pricing structure. The premises were clean and tidy. My 3 star review would have been at least 4 stars possibly even 5*. Unfortunately, the building itself meant  a lower rating. It needs a refurbishment and modernisation.  For its location, directly adjacent to the busy A1, the sound insulation was totally inefficient.  The shower was of the type whereby you need to run around to get wet.  Some fixtures and fittings were in a state of disrepair and were in need of updating or replacement. 
Despite the building failures I would stay there again.

Warm, friendly staff. Building needs work.

If travelling north or south on the A1 this is a good location to stay over during a long distance drive. Easy to find and carparking available. Clean and comfortable and caring staff. Be aware that some food shops were closed in the evening

Good location

Ideal location travelling for work. Quiet even though located on the side of a motorway), comfortable bed and great staff.
Free parking a bonus with places around if you need anything. 
Will use in future not only for business but trip up North.

Business trip

Great staff very friendly and helpful nothing was a problem. The rooms were very clean and well presented and hotel was easy to find. I would highly recommend staying with travellodge. This was a great value for money hotel

Great place to stop

I stayed here on a long trip to Scotland for Christmas. I had been driving a while so the burger king right next door helped!

The room was clean and I couldn't really hear the noise from my room which was a worry I had. Staff were lovely and the parking was free! Hopefully I find a similar travelodge on my way home

Road trip

Lovely comfortable rooms, quiet location, clean bathroom, very friendly staff, drinks facilities in the room, extra milk, tea & coffee at hand. Lively pub/restaurant 2 minutes walk away.  Well placed for a visit to Beamish Museum, would definitely stay again

Great stay

I booked an accessible room as I cannot do stairs. 
THE ROOM looked comfortable and inviting. Was sitting at the desk to do some work and I noticed a spiderweb on the lamp. Fair enough those bugs can appear suddenly. 
THE BATHROOM I went for a shower lowered bath which was good not much room though the hand rail that ran the length of the bath took away about a third of the bath. The shower did not work it was a dribble no matter what I did also it was not an electric shower just a hose attached to the taps. Also could not close the shower curtain properly as it was a corner tap. 
THE BED now that was very disappointing. It was 2 single beds joined together and was very uncomfortable where the join was. I did not get that much sleep but on the plus side the pillows and duvet were great. 
THE REMOTE it was absolutely disgusting. I took it to reception with 2 fingers and she sprayed with disinfectant and rubbed with a cloth. Got back to room it had took a little of the crap that was on it. 
I have stayed in many Travel Lodges in my time but this one takes the biscuit. I would of said the the receptionist in the morning at 10.15ish but there was no one there. 

Disappointed

Cheap basic rooms, which is what you pay for but felt ripped off at £20 for the dog to be allowed to stay.
Regularly stay in luxury hotels where dogs are allowed to stay free or £15 .
£20 for such a basic hotel seems ridiculous.
The reason given was cleaning costs, I am sure people make more of a mess than most dogs!

Paid more for the dog to be allowed to stay, than per person

Its in a really good location - just off A1M...
The rooms are clean and spacious and have a nice bath/shower option .
The staff are friendly and helpful . Thankyou to OLGA - always polite and friendly 

Good Location - Nice spacious rooms

No staff on entry. Waited ages then had to call them to get service. Room unbelievably noisy with traffic noise. Carpet very dirty. No lift and no eating facility attached. Bed was very comfy and clean. Room size was good.
