Stayed here since we went to a concert nearby. Overall things went ok staying here, but overall this property needs MAJOR renovating and updates. It’s a VERY bare minimum place to stay. All the furniture was visibly scuffed up/breaking down. The armchair looked like it got mauled by a cat. Hallway carpet is coming apart. Holes in the walls from artwork being torn down in the bedroom. No overhead lighting, hardly any amenities. No breakfast. Luckily we just needed a place to sleep so we didn’t have to spend too much time in the room outside of sleeping there. Probably wouldn’t stay here again tbh.

Stay away!!! Horrifying
God awful! Wirst hotel ever! If I could give 0 stars it would be 100% too many. The place has to have 2 security guards and police. There was an actual gang of scary men gathered. It's not safe! And thr property is run down a ghetto like. The staff were down right unwelcoming and rude.

Over All Great Stay! Forest Park Hotel
I just needed to get away and do some thinking. To collect my thoughts and center myself again. All the staff were extremely happy 😊 and helpful. The 1st man I came in contact with at 4am was so helpful. There was a problem with my reservation and he explained how the hotel system worked. I made my reservation online and since our was made after 6pm as it was explained to me the computer system kicked my reservation to the next day so I was told I could sit in the lobby until 8am and talk to the morning manager about paying the extra fees for early check-in. The only complaint I have is I had a bunch of gnats in my room. I ❤️ Love the shower have safety rails. I've had 5 back surgeries so I'm extremely cautious. I wasn't driving so i love that I could walk to a couple place to eat including two gas stations

They did not offer breakfast, and at least half the cars in the parking lot were broken into. The morning we checked out we met a gentleman whose car had been broken into parked out front, and the hotel had no cameras or security. The room was dirty, and the pillows smelled like actual poop. Staff was very friendly checking us in and out, when I tried to request a refund for the second night since it was so gross and didn’t offer breakfast, they were a little snippy and denied my request. Won’t be staying here again.

Rooms weren't spacious, and the washroom was very small. Lobbies were smelling a lil. Overall, property seems to be old, and needed maintenance.

The outside is nice but the room has a dingy smell, the bathroom smelled like urine. This room (possibly the entire hotel) needs to be renovated and cleaned.
