It's just a very old motel and needs some work. The faceplates on the outlets were in bad shape, the faucet in the bathroom needs replaced, and other stuff I cannot remember now. If I would have paid $65 for the room I wouldn't complain, but I paid what the Marriott at MSP charged me for the next night. The lady at check-in was nice.

Cozy Cabin Feel
I got to the Motel about 5:30pm check in with only cash went amazingly smooth and the Front Desk gentleman was very nice and helpful. The room was cozy with a studio sized refrigerator. The room was clean and comfortable. My neighbors were not exactly people I would choose, but I didn't complain so the office was unaware. The housekeeping lady was very helpful and quick so I could get my deposit back and be on my way. I would recommend Forest Lake Motel.

Nice little place.
Motel is old, but clean. Check in and out was easy. We only spent one night, but it was quiet. Love being able to park right outside the door. No long halls or stairs.

We are traveling cross country and We like the “Mom and Pop” places over the chains. The room was a surprise in the fact there was a bedroom and also a bed in the front. Full size refrigerator with a small stove and kitchen sink. The bathroom was a little small but water was good and hot and good pressure. The manager was very nice and offered suggestions on where to go to restaurants. Overall very satisfied with everything. If ever in the area would stay there again.

Forest Lake Hotel room 37 late September 2022
Upon check-in the room was quite clean overall, but there is a lingering mildew smell (this is a very old property) that is very apparent each time entering the room. Had to run the bathroom exhaust continuously to help clear the air. Fortunately the wind was blowing from the NNW and the windows do not seal so the breeze came right in. Because the room is facing North and at street level you can see Forest Lake, sort of. Lots of bushes on the shoreline block most of the view. The entry door is less than 30 feet from the street and an EMS ambulance service is on a nearby property so the sirens are quite loud. There are no telephones in the rooms. Management gives you a business card and expects you to call on a cell phone if you have any issues. Just be aware that this is not a fancy place and if you need somewhere to sleep it will fill the bill.

The room had a smell in it when you first opened door. As you were in there didn’t notice as much. It really could use better locks as there is no outside door. Screen doors would be nice to have so you could keep inside door open. Windows did not work. Beds were comfy. Staff very pleasant.

Nice and comfortable room with full kitchen and 2nd bed. But the rooms could use some fixes and upgrades. A good value tho and pet friendly. Centrally located. Nice walk to the lake.

Horrible dissappointment
The hotel was terrible. Residents/laborers on either side of the room were cooking fish outside on propane stoves. Very seedy looking. After looking at the room and realizing it smelled terrible we forfeited all our money, turned in the key and left. We did not feel safe and the pictures online were nothing like we walked into. We were charged a ridiculous rate. We ran to the comfort inn and suites which was perfect and cheaper.

Guest told me the room was fine, but didn't like the people near. We have several guests that work for the forest service and stay here because we speak spanish. I'm sorry the other guest felt uncomfortable with their presence. We had charged him $10 extra for a pet.

Nothing fancy, but that's just fine.
Decent sized room with the usual furniture -aside from A FULL SIZE REFRIGERATOR! Seemed clean and everything worked. Free Wi-Fi was good enough for the two of us to play some WOW.

Overall the property is very tired and run down and not kept up very well. However it is across from the lake and the room view was very nice. The rooms are very large and spacious and just what you need if you're staying the night and just need a place to lay your weary head. The maids knocked on our door very early in the morning to see when we were going to leave it was our que that we needed to get around as they wanted to clean the room. This is a motel so they knew we were still there as our car was parked right in front of the door.The owners of the motel are very very friendly and helpful to find things to do around town. Over all my aunt and I were very happy with our stay.

So-So
I stayed 3 nights in a single room. t was a very basic hotel - what I'd expect for the price. My only window "view" was entirely blocked by a giant tree trunk a few feet from the window. The TV didn't work. I reported it after checking in. They said they'd look at it while I was eating dinner. They just unplugged it. It was never fixed or replaced. One night, we had heavy rain. I was awakened by drips of water on my face. The window above the bed leaked.

A Low Quality Stay
The beds are old, windows with no screens (in a location with lots of mosquitoes), windows that don't work, Venetian blinds in a state of ill-repair, poor cleaning, etc. WiFi didn't seem to work either. The motel is in real need of repair and renovation. On the positive side, the room had a good refrigerator and microwave.

The review would be better if the price weren't so high. The motel would have been fine for something in the $50-$60 range but it was wofully inadequate for the $90s. Musty smell in the room. Hard beds. Good service from the couple that runs the place. They were very nice and accomidating.
