"Small town great hospitality"

10.0

I had a wonderful experience from check in to check out. Because i am a Club member of IHG they started ringing a bell and danced a little. That was very nice! I was only there for a 2 night stay due to work. Front desk reps, housekeepers, everyone was wonderful. I especially enjoyed the bacon Saturday Morning, glad I got to experience that. Very good. Loved it. I will be returning.

I like that the hotel is close to the casino, but it needs upgrading. The outlets are no good or don’t work. Cheaper hotels at least have a microwave and/or mini fridge. The rest of the facilities are nice.

Coffee pot in the room was not functioning- mildly warm coffee. Bathroom shampoo/conditioner holder was dirty- in room jacuzzi out of order. It was not worth $186 a night. Breakfast served at 6:30 on a weekday- I left at 6am for business. Normally Holiday Inn Express can be worth the extra… just not this one. I will say it was their last room available and it was quiet and the bed was decent.

"Holiday Inn Forest"

6.0

This is the only decent place to stay in Forest. Because it’s the only option close to a nice place to sleep a lot of people choose it to stay. For the cost of the room, they definitely need to upgrade it. It needs so many upgrades. The bathroom paint is chipping, the carpet was dirty, the tvs are old (remote). But the breakfast was nice.
