The room was clean and the beds comfortable. The bath was dangerously slippery but did have a hand bar but I lined it with one of the towels for a shower. The breakfast was ok but lukewarm rather than hot. It was noisy at night in our room as the staff of IHOP (which was opposite our room) hung out there on there breaks.

Only one person on staff. She worked hard and did her best. The rooms were clean, the bed was comfortable. Not a holiday destination place, but good enough for an overnight stay. There was only cereal for breakfast.

I didn't make breakfast in time. I personally think that breakfast should shut down at 10AM instead of 9. Maintain the grass. The room was clean. The only issue with the room was that the shower head was loose and sprayed out the sides and onto the ceiling. Other than those small issues, the room was very clean.

Acceptable stay. Room mainly looked nice. Bed was not particularly comfortable but there were different-firmness pillows, which is a nice touch because not everyone likes the same firmness. Bathtub was old. Shower water pressure was excellent. Internet was very good. It is very close to Waffle House and Wendy's. It is easy to hear guests who are in another room. I brought my ear plugs and slept okay.

Review before Stay

The room was clean enough to stay and not go elsewhere. Property need updating. Staff charged my card before I arrived and again at departure causing overcharge. I was there 2 days front desk said I never checked in, but was charged the before arrival. Staff need to communicate with one another or at least pay attention to reservations and room assignments.

Bes value for a reason.

The hotel is a very old single story with multipal buildings that are spread out. A long walk to breakfast and ice. A hole in the floor in the corner of the bath and hole in the wall by the doop that was filled with a paper towel. Furnishing was newer and ok. Bed was comfortable and we slept well. New firnature was being installed. AC was noisy.

I have stayed here many times and found it satisfactory and reasonable. This time my room was not clean. Bugs in the bathroom. Dirty washcloth on the floor behind bathroom door. Hair stuck to back of bathroom door and in corner of floor. I was disappointed in the condition of the room. Checkin smooth. Quiet room.

Parking was fine. Staff was okay. Room was clean. Driving into the motel area has holes in it. And the worst was the breakfast. Very little to choose from and the cooked food was cold. We have stayed there about 4 times but will look for someplace else the next time we visit our friends in Forrest.
