They just need to clean carpets and pool.. very nice and friendly people. But property needs lots of maintenance and repairs.. for 2 years the pool have been green and it’s too hot in Mississippi to not be able to cool off in the pool
The only nice hotel in Forest Mississippi has gone down drastically. Was once our favorite place to stay, but now we are considering staying in Meridian and driving back and forth to Forest. Everything in the hotel is outdated and needs an overall change. Not representing the Holiday brand!
Building getting old has and old smell, needs carpet replaced and remove those low toilets. I've been coming to this hotel since it was first built.

Liked: Staff & service
Staff was great very friendly and helpful. Property was extremely dated with worn out furnishings. Fitness equipment was rusting and room key system using very old tech with no UBS drive plug ins. Need remodeling ASAP.
Holiday Inn Expresses are usually in better condition than this one was. Updates are seriously needed. Mold on the ceiling, tub and tile. Dirty ironing board cover. The lights went out, due to a storm and there was no back up generator. We were in the dark in an unfamiliar place. No hand sanitizer in the dining area, but breakfast was decent. All of which was totally unexpected.
We were in town for a very short stay due to a death in the family. The staff was very nice, friendly, and professional. The breakfast offered a variety of choices and was very good.
