The room was extremely clean and modern. There was no password needed for the wi-fi, which was a HUGE plus (I always have trouble getting signed in at other hotels). The on-site restaurant actually had really good food. There weren't a lot of options on the menu, but what we ordered was very tasty. The bar in the lobby stayed open until midnight (kitchen closed at 10pm) and the drinks were strong and tasty!

There was no microwave in the room and the nearest one (outside of going to the lobby) was at the very end of the hallway and there was only one on each floor. The mini-fridge didn't have a freezer, which wasn't a huge problem but I didn't think to check before buying the ice cream from the 24 hour mini-mart in the lobby, so I had to eat it right away since there was no where to store it.

Nice modern hotel, convenient for the office. Not much around for tourists. Nothing in walking distance, bars, restaurants etc.

Hotel and rooms lacked a little character, storage for clothes not great if you are staying for a long period. I had to switch rooms mid stay. They gave me a suite to compensate for 2 nights. I'd rather have stayed in my original room.

My sister and I stayed at The Forester for a friend's wedding. Great room and staff. The on-site restaurant has breakfast and dinner options and it's affordable. Lots of shopping and places to eat about 10 minutes away including a mall. The rooms are modern and clean and the staff is always willing to help. We had a great time.

We thought the hotel was closer to the shopping area so we would be able to walk around, but we were able to grab an uber when we needed one.

The food was good but they need to give the customers a hand held menu. Looking at an Ipad is not for everyone. Also, one source of dissatisfaction is the coffee. Make it available ALL Day, not only a few hours in the morning. Lastly, serve the coffee with milk or cream, not soy milk.

I already mentioned the coffee service above. Rooms, especially for the disabled, should be equipped with a microwave to warm things up. Lastly the A/C in the room was either cold or hot. I was in 401 and that needs adjustment/repair.

they had a fire alarm test but failed to tell us about it. our reservation said we had breakfast included but they indicated that this was a booking.com error. After much discussion, they honored the booking invoice and gave us breakfast.

Brand new facility and wonderful staff. I really just needed a quick place to stay overnight, but the staff made me feel so welcome that I now look forward to coming back. Perfect place for anyone traveling for work, in particular, near this location. Quiet, very nice rooms, close to downtown Lake Forest and highway.

I have no complaints. It was a great experience.

Loved the beds, big windows in the rooms, big bathroom, hooks around mirror for purses or sweatshirts

The floor could have been cleaned, dust was around the beds. We also couldn’t use Netflix because it wasn’t working. The only other downside was the ice machines weren’t on every floor. And no pool
