Breakfast was ok nothing spectacular but edible for “free”. Pool was filled with a hose so it was very cold, hot tub was not working which was the main reason for choosing this hotel for our stay, extremely disappointing!!
The staff were amazing. The pool heater was broken but they did everything they could to make sure my kids had a great time. They were always friendly and present for anything we needed.
Rooms were overall very clean and a nice size, breakfast had alot of options. The pool was freezing due to the heater being broken, this would have been nice to know before we packed our bags and drove there since the indoor pool and hot tub was the reason for coming to this hotel.

Check in was good and easy. The rooms and hotel hallways were very clean. However, the pool and hot tub were not working and we chose to stay there so we could swim etc. they need to put on their website that the pool and hot tub are broken and closed. Several families were upset as they had kids that wanted to
The hotel was extremely dirty, to the point that I felt uncomfortable staying. I left after only one hour in the building. I would strongly advise against booking this location. There is another Holiday Inn Express in Carlisle that is clean and well maintained — unfortunately, this one was not.
Super spacious and comfortable room, our kids loved the pool!

They neglected to tell me that the hot tub and the indoor pool were out of order and that was the only reason I chose this hotel. I did not stay, I got my money back and went to a different hotel.
The staff was efficient and friendly. The room was clean and comfortable.

The amenities were not as described. The gym was extremely small. The pool and hot tub were closed. Also, we booked a room for four adults. It was only stocked with two sets of towels.
Very accommodating and friendly staff. Decent pool and decent breakfast.
