At some point, this was a nice hotel. But, that season has passed. Currently, the carpets are very dirty. The beds were clean, or I would have asked for another room even though we came in late. The countertops had spots from previous occupants. Cup rings, fingerprints, and even though beds seemed to be changed, surface areas were not clean. There is Dove shampoo and conditioner in the tubs, but they've been filled with some other soap because that wasn't Dove. Breakfast was okay, but it still lacked the usual Holiday Inn cleanliness. Trash cans were overflowing. Got a nice little surprise when my friend turned on the hair dryer and fire came out of it. Thanks for the memories, Carlisle. Still, not worth the price, and I won't do that again! Note: Our room was spacious. It had a table, desk area, and a couch. It was made to be a nice place.

The staff was extremely nice. Had the opportunity to meet the owner after breakfast. Very kind and engaged with guests. Came into the pool area and talked the kids to get their opinion on the temp of the pool. Will definitely stay there again.

The staff was very nice. But the room was pretty dirty and needed some attention. The floor by the HVAC was wet. The drain was broken. The pool was ok but the hot tub was dirty. It was good enough to stay for a quick stay but I wouldn't recommend any longer.

This is one of our favorite hotels to stay at, and we stay at hotels at least 1-2 nights a week. The rooms are spacious and very comfortable. They're indoor swimming pool is large and deep, indoor hot tub for guest use is amazing, the decor and feel of the place is superior! We normally stay in one of their spa tub rooms, but, being Valentine's Day weekend, there were not available for this stay. However, with the indoor pool and hot tub available to all guests, it was still a very wonderful day and I recommend this particular Holiday Inn Express to everyone. It's a great value for the money for sure!

We arrived in the lobby to check in to find a sign that said be back in 5 minutes. 25 minutes later someone finally showed up to help us. The bed was very uncomfortable. The floor would have probably been softer. The ice machine on our floor was broken. The heating unit was set to 65 degrees and we woke up in the middle of the night and the room was very hot and the unit said it was 78 degrees. We will not be back.

This hotel has a great swimming pool that goes to 6 ft deep, breakfast is served until 10:00 a.m., and the decors fascinating and unique. Our room, however, had not been cleaned. We did not complain because we were the last people to stay in that room, is it was basically our dirt anyway

I love that this hotel has unique decor, breakfast is served until 10:00 a.m. and their indoor swimming pool goes up to 6 ft deep! Unfortunately, both times we stayed at this hotel our room was pretty dirty. In fact, our second stay was in the same room as our first day and we could tell they had not cleaned it at all. There was still a chocolate milk ring on the white topped and stand beside the bed.

How can IHG allow this?

This hotel looks like the ideal place to film a CSI crime drama. The parking lot at night is extremely creepy since there are no lights, the carpet throughout the hotel looks & smells like it should be banned by OSHA, there is an amazingly putrid smell coming from the pool, and bathrooms are beyond disgusting. The staff was fine and surprisingly the bed was comfortable but everything else is beyond bad. It should be shuttered.

Excellent staff! Decent hot breakfast with plenty of options and comfortable beds , but the roll away beds are so awful that you mine as well sleep on the floor. The front desk attendant was very kind to allow me to check all the roll away beds in the closet and not one of them were close to being of use to sleep on with springs pushing through. Pool and hot tub left a dirty sticky feel on your skin and hot tub area stunk like a port a potty. We got nauseous in the hot tub from the odor.Room felt unclean and looked to have needed a good deep cleaning. I always stay at Holiday in Express when traveling and have nothing, but great reviews, but I struggle with this location. If the staff wasn't so kind and helpful and I wasn't so exhausted I probably would have requested a somewhat of a credit ,but they definitely did the best they could with what they have. I would have left if we were staying for more than one night. There are plenty of restaurants just a mile or two away and a quick mart type gas station in walking distance and plenty of food delivery options through Door Dash type apps.
