Verified Reviews of Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Fort Myers East The Forum
Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked recently: "Awful Room"
Overall Score1.0/ 5
Despite booking this reservation about a month ago, we were assigned perhaps the worst room ever. Ground floor, right behind/adjacent to the elevators. Loud, noisy and causing the wall behind the beds to literally vibrate every time the elevators were activated (which seemed to be every minute) 🥴. Our che in was also delayed due to a apparent staff shortag and one of the garbage pails was not cleaned out from the previous guests. This frustrating experience was conveyed to the front desk during our one night stay Clearl we are very, very disappointed. We expected much higher quality for the price paid. We wo''t be returning to this facility.

Overall Score4.0/ 5
Rooms were clean, beds and pillows comfortable. Water pressure low in shower and fridge did not get cold, laundry was only available on one floor, out of order in other floors not convenient for baseball families. Ice machine also out of order in all floors but one. Otherwise, great property.

We stay here multiple times a year. Always clean and neat. Friendly staff that go above and beyond. Great location off I 75 with food a Target and gas nearby. Highly recommend when staying in Ft Myers.
Javier J. (Individual traveler, booked 1 room), from
31-May-2021 Verified Review, stayed from Fri May 28 to Mon May 31 2021 at a $99.00 average nightly rate. "Lack of cleanliness."
Overall Score2.0/ 5
I was very disappointed with the cleanliness of the bathroom. The tub floor was stained with dirt in the non skid. The tile had hand prints and some hair. The shower curtain was not clean and there was some mildew in the corners of the tub grout. After seeing the condition of the tub I started looking around and noticed around and behind the toilet had not been wiped down in some time. I would not consider this level of cleanliness acceptable in any hotel and really was disappointed by your brand. I was in town for a wedding and did not have time to make any room changes. However, I did report my disappointment with the front desk clerk and he told me he would report it to his manager.

Overall Score1.0/ 5
Never had a bad experience with Holiday inn until now. I was not informed of the remodeling taking place at this location. I understand that these things happen occasionally and are very much needed as is the case for this location. The carpet was filthy, the shower drained slowly and the dead bolt to the door was broken. Thankfully I was directly across the hallway from the room where checkin was being held. Would I have known there was remodeling being done I would have chosen another location to ensure a peaceful night of sleep for work the following day.

Overall Score4.0/ 5
My first day, no internet, wasn't until I had to go down to the front desk the first night to get connected by the desk clerk.Found out as on my last day that they're are only ice machines on every other floor. It would have been nice to have some information in my room about nearby restaurants, shopping etc.

Overall Score4.0/ 5
First time at a Holiday Inn. Checked in a little early and the staff was accommodating and friendly. Hotel and room overall was clean and all staff were friendly. Ready made coffee in dispensers in lobby/breakfast area was "meh" but there was a single serve Keurig machine in our room with complimentary coffee pods so that would have been a better option. Bed and pillows were surprisingly very comfortable. Breakfast had more of a variety than the typical free breakfast, personnel taking care of the dining area and keeping up with the food did a good job keeping everything clean and maintained.
