The Forest Park Hotel.. is well it’s nothing fancy but it is a place to stay if you don’t want go drive 2 hours home. The hotel location worked out perfect for myself and 2 kids due to the activities we had planned were all right there within a 5 to 10 minute drive. The check-in process was easy and quick. Although I can’t remember the man’s name behind the counter, he was very pleasant attentive and took care of me right away. Getting up to the room was not hard after parking our car going in the side door and up the elevator, this building is older nothing fancy. I will say that the aroma of Mary Jane was lingering and almost every hallway that we went down, but to be fair it’s like that everywhere these days once we got to our room, it was exactly as we had thought it would be a small room with a small bathroom and all the amenities that you need for a night. A big surprise to my children was the ability to go out on the balcony. Although it was freezing, they actually really enjoyed that small treat and it was good to air out the room. The heat worked well it did smell a little funky when you turned it on, but that’s typical for an older hotel. it was relatively clean no bed bugs. Yes we did check. It was pretty quiet. No wild parties like when I had stayed at the hotel next-door. I’ll probably stay here again especially if I have my kids. Especially for the cost and convenience.

The worst hotel experience ever. I have never stayed in such a dump. It wouldnt have been so bad but the customer service was the worst I have experienced in a long time. A little kindness goes a long way.

Went to check in and the hotel looked desolate at first. Went inside to check in and was given a single bed when I paid for a double bed, Went back downstairs and fixed that. My kids and I got to the room and within 30 seconds of being in the room a cockroach ran across the wall. My toddler who is deathly afraid of bugs went ballistic. The vibe of the hotel to begin with was strange. Someone was checking in when we went to leave and let the desk know without their shoes on. Lots of strange couples checking in. The pictures make the hotel seem a Lot better than it is. Would not stay here, now having a hard time getting anyone to call me back to get my money back as we left and went somewhere else.

Decent stay
I thought this was a decent hotel. Everyone was very friendly. They were actively fixing it up while we were there such as painting walls, etc. The bed was super comfortable, the shower was actually really good. We did have some hairs in the bathroom when we showed up, which definitely wasn't ours, but overall it was a decent stay! It got the job done which was to provide a bed to sleep in.

Easy to book and affordable. Good for stop in stays, had small refrigerator and microwave. Staff very friendly and responsive. Mattress was obviously very old and sunken in the middle on the head side so sleeping was very uncomfortable, your top half sinks in. The walls are very thin, so if you’re a light sleeper bring earplugs. Our door key reader stopped working so we were locked out of our room without our things and had to be switched to another room. Maintenance did come relatively quickly for it being so late and got our things back very fast. Close to a lot of food spots. Good overall, but just didn’t get much sleep because of the mattress and noise.
