At first impression of the property was very favorable. When I first walked into my room I was very pleased, it was not what I expected at all. I was expecting just a room with 2 beds. The room was very nice, a place to kick off my shoes and relax. Which I did. Then when I was getting ready to shower is when I noticed how dirty the bottom of my socks were. DISGUSTING !!!!!!!!!

Great place to house a family of 5.
We had to make last minute arrangements for 3 adults and 2 children and found Best Western in Lake Forest. It offered a one bedroom with two queen beds and a sofa bed. The sofa bed wasn’t very comfortable but worked for the kids. The breakfast offered was great! The price also great compared to other hotel rooms that slept fewer people.

On the last night of my stay, when I turned on the bathroom light, a huge cockroach appeared in front of me, and then it entered the bedroom through the open door. I could only pick up a floor mat and throw it over, but I didn't dare to open it to see if it was dead. I couldn't sleep all night, and I always felt like something was crawling on the bed. It was such a bad experience. It makes me sick just thinking about it.

Room is clean. However, the body wash was used, and just a little left in the bottle. Staff is very nice, and the breakfast is quite decent. The chef looks angry all the time though :)

Nice staff, nice hotel. Will return.
Nice hotel, large rooms so that was great for our larger family. The pool and hot tub looked nice but we didn't get a chance to use the amenity. The room was dark, lights were placed in strange places, the bathroom had no ventilation which made the room muggy at times, one of the two TVs didn't work but it wasn't a huge deal. The biggest downfall was the parking, we arrived back to the room late due to attending an event and there was no parking for our small SUV. Parking spaces are extremely small and the small cars parked in two spaces or in the "truck" parking so not everyone could park, other patrons had to park in the parking lot for the hotel next door as well. The front desk was nice enough to let me park in front of the entrance. The breakfast was hardy and good for a starter before leaving the hotel. We will return in the future.
