Disliked: Amenities
I would not stay at the Holiday Inn Carlisle again. There are no convenient amenities included — no free parking, no free breakfast, and it really feels like the hotel is trying to nickel-and-dime you at every turn. The bathrooms were in poor condition, the beds were extremely uncomfortable with almost no support, and overall the rooms did not feel cared for. The staff didn’t seem interested in helping or ensuring a good stay — it was more like they just wanted to get you checked in and checked out as quickly as possible. I’ll gladly pay a little more next time and stay somewhere else. This place just isn’t worth it.

When I booked my room, I purchased the breakfast package for $19, which was advertised as including free breakfast. However, upon arrival, I was given a breakfast voucher valued at $16. This is concerning, as the value of the voucher does not match what I paid for the package, and the booking description suggested that breakfast would be fully covered.

Staff was friendly. Parking should be free as it's an open lot. Rooms could be updated with USB outlets. Basic breakfast prices are extremely high. I was charged the full amount of my hotel the morning of check out when the hotel stay was paid in full prior to check in. Now I have to wait for a refund on a Holiday week. That was the worse part of my stay.

Disliked: Staff & service
This was the worst customer service experience I’ve ever had in a hotel and of all people the front desk manager didn’t do anything about it. She had nothing but attitude and disrespect when I addressed a very important invalid issue regarding late check out.. She spoke to me in a threatening manner. She was hostile and she didn’t even do anything to fix the mistake that they made at the front desk. This is literally the worst experience I’ve ever had checking in a hotel and checking out, I spent a lot of money on this hotel stay to run a marathon and that is how I was treated. The person in front of me asked for late check out. I asked to speak to someone else and she said no one else was here to help me. I would like to have somebody from corporate or whatever reach out to me or I will start making some phone calls myself.
