My daughter and I stayed overnight to do Christmas shopping in area. The room was sparkling clean, smelled fresh and the beds were very, very comfortable. Easy check-in. Lots of hot water! The bathroom was very clean and spacious. We will most assuredly stay there again if we are in the area. Manager was very nice as were the maids.... More

The Carlisle Howard Johnson is clean and friendly. I have stayed here a couple of times when I have had to spend the night in Carlisle, and it is far better than the Rodeway Inn, which is next door. My daughter goes to school in Carlisle and she was pleased with the condition of the room when we had to... More

We were traveling from New England to North Carolina so we just needed a place to lay our heads and a shower to use before heading on the rest of our way to NC. The following morning waking up NO HOT WATER! the one main purpose why we stayed at a hotel, otherwise we would have stayed in the car..... More

We stayed here about 2 months ago and the wait staff was pretty nice so we decided to try it again. Unfortunately, the building is deteriorating and nothing is being done. No AC in restaurant or lobby. The humidity is so high, everything is damp. Shower curtain won't close. Prices in the restaurant went up. Not worth the price. More

After a weekend in Pittsburgh, I started my trip back to Maine with the intent of crashing for the night on the way back after an afternoon Pirates game. I decided to drive the Penna. Turnpike on the way back and took my chances at the junction of I-81 in Carlisle. Wanting to go easy on the budget I pulled... More

The Howard Johnson is an older property that saw its best days 20 years ago. But, it has interior corridors, reliable facilities, larger rooms than the new budget options and reasonably friendly and efficient immigrant owner/managers. The rooms are a little dirty and beat up--what you'd expect but everything worked. There is a restaurant on site with passable food. If... More

I've stayed there twice, most recently this past weekend and I must say that it's only good for maybe a night or two if you're just passing through or are in Carlisle for an event. The hotel is in total need of renovation. Peeling wallpaper, old carpet and lack of upgrades really aren't a selling point. I never had a... More

Absolutely the filthiest place I've stayed at. Scum around the ice dispenser, no security at night,security doors left open, people walking around in the hallway and lobby and driveway parking lot just loitering. Soft spot in bottom of tub. Floors dirty. Carpet in room and hallway filthy. Lamp cord had heavy end table sitting on it mashing it into carpet.... More

This is the second worst hotel that I have stayed at my entire life. I slept with a Kleenex over my nose. I put Ben Gay ointment on it so I didn't have to smell the room. The inside door looked filthy. Sheets were rough and worn out - didn't fit the bed. Towels were slimy. The lobby and the... More
