Holiday Inn Forest 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.

Drive past this one Just an overnight stop on a cross country road trip. We arrived late and the room was HOT. Most don’t air condition rooms prior to arrival so it wasn’t that big of a deal……until it NEVER COOLED OFF. Older property where you still change the air on the actual unit under the window. It displayed the temp as 77 upon arrival and even with it set at 65 it never got below 77 in the room. There was no wall thermostat so this was not user error in case you’re wondering. Miserable nights “sleep” when you can’t get comfortable

Work It was an overnight stay for work. Everything was clean and food options was amazing and next to a Walmart which was a bonus because I needed some personal items. Will recommend this hotel if I had to stay in this area again.

Airicula was awesome and breakfast was good. The room was tired. The bathroom had a cracked sink and mildew stains in the joint where the tub meets the shower wall panels. That is gross. The furniture was scuffed up.
