Friendly staff, conveniently located right off the highway. I would try to get a room on the front side of the hotel (even room numbers) to minimize highway traffic noise. Great breakfast and well maintained facilities.
Nice hotel and room, nice breakfast. Need to stick room with towels for the number of guests registered (we had only 2 sets for 3 people)

Next to Interstate, but friendly staff, clean stay
This hotel is directly next to the interstate If you are light sleeper, choose a different hotel. As always, breakfast at the Holiday Inn Express was stellar. Staff was friendly.
So much better than the last holiday inn express we stayed in. This location was very clean, everything worked, and the staff was very nice and helpful. Will stay here again next time we’re in Carlisle.

Business trip
Overall, a nice hotel for a two-night business trip. Nothing extraordinary, always a good experience at the Holiday Inn
One on our way home from Florida traveling to New York. Looked online - hotel had great reviews and easy access off of highway. Everything was great - very clean, convenient, price was perfect and staff very friendly.
