Super 8 by Wyndham Forrest City AR

If you’re looking for a hotel that you over pay and get wonderful service and the smells are just amazing (sarcastically), the Super 8 in Forrest City is the place for you. I showed up around 11:30 PM to find the front door locked and absolutely no one at the desk. Eventually someone wandered out from the back and let me in, but the vibe was already questionable. The smell of marijuana inside was… impressive. Like, Olympic-level. If “Weed Scent of the Year” were a fragrance, this place would be the factory. The room? Let’s just say it did not exactly scream “freshly cleaned.” More like “we tried our best but gave up halfway.” Molding had mold around the window. The floors were gross. And the shower never got hot, which was super cool, literally. Nothing like a cold shower to really remind you you’re alive after the weed fog in the hallway tried to knock you out. Breakfast? Oh that’s funny…there was none. Not even coffee. Not even a “sorry we don’t have breakfast today” sign. Just an empty room where food should have been, like a museum exhibit titled “Expectations vs. Reality.” I try not to let it bother me too much because, honestly, I should’ve read the reviews before I booked it. That part’s on me. But still… wow. Overall, staying here was an adventure I didn’t sign up for. If you like locked doors, smoke and marijuana smells, cold showers, and imaginary breakfasts, this is your spot. Otherwise, probably pick anywhere else.

It was a convenient place to stop on my way home. The bed was comfortable & the room was clean.

It would have been nice if the ice machine would have been working. It would've been nice if in room coffee had been available.

It was located outside Memphis, which was nice and small area.

When we arrived at 3am, the hotel attendant couldn't get into the computer to give us a room. It smelled like weed in the lobby and she gave us a room letting us know to come back up to the front if there is a person in there....We entered the room hoping there was no on in there. When we got in the room no one was in there, but the door jam was broken and we could not lock our door fully, so we used the ironing board as protection. There were crickets everywhere. IN the room and outside the in the hall way. There was no breakfast at 6am either.

The only thing that we liked was there were three beds. That was very convenient for us.

Upon walking in, we were hit with the strongest cannabis smell in the lobby. The hall was very hot and smelled of mildew. We walked into our room to the same mildew smell. The bathroom looked as if it hadn't been cleaned from the previous guest, dead bugs in the floor, hair in the tub & sink, carpet was filthy, and the chair at the vanity had white stains on it. We stayed 3 days and didn't see housekeeping one day. The second day, our sheets were removed from our bed, and clean sheets were just tossed in a pile on one bed and never made. Trash still piled in the corner and no clean towels to replace the dirty ones. We had 6 guests and only provided 2 towels. I tried to find a staff member but couldn't find anyone. I made the beds myself & went to laundry to get us more towels. This was, in my opinion, the nastiest hotel I have ever stayed at. I do not feel like I should have paid as much as I did for the quality. 50% refund would be appreciated at best.

Bed was clean room eventually cooled down very outdated and run down would not stay again

Desk clerk was too absorbed in her phone to notice a guest was waiting to check in. Clock radio in room was disfunctional. Toilet flapper didn’t seal, so it ran all night. There was no coffee (or anything else) available in the lobby as advertised. The morning desk clerk said she was too sick to put out coffee, etc. Otherwise, it was fine. Pretty clean and comfortable. What does one expect for $60?

A pool and breakfast was advertised and they had neither one. The room was really small and dark.
