Disliked: Cleanliness
Unfortunately, the stay at this hotel was tad disappointing. The room was not cleaned properly - the items including the desk, the bedside cabinets and the floor carpet were covered in dust. Additionally, water drain in the shower was not working properly, making it hard to take a shower without flooding the bathroom after a few minutes. Upon reporting these two issues early in the morning the next day, the room was neither tidied up to a higher standard, nor the issue with the water drainage were resolved. One of the receptions also seemed disengaged when having been informed about the issues (however, the other one was more interested and noted it down later).

No mitigation...
My flight was cancelled due to the global IT failure and i contacted the hotel at the earliest opportunity to inform them. I didnt expect a refund but i hoped they would show some discretion given my misfortune and offer something in return. The hotel was fully booked and i am sure they could have relet and quite possibly did given they knew i wasnt coming. Sadly they offered nothing. I find this poor customer service.

Room reeked of mold/mildew. The bathroom held the worst of it. Literally had to hold our breath anytime we entered the bathroom. A room in this condition should not be given to guests. We thankfully only stayed one night here.

Forest Motel is close to the airport and has easy access to public transport. They have a lift which makes carrying heavy bags a lot easier and the breakfast was great. The area felt safe and there are enough local restaurants to get by for a short stay. There is also a supermarket within walking distance. Would recommend this place :)
