We thought the design of the room was outstanding. Little touches, like the nightlight in the bathroom, and full length mirror was great. Small but nice fitness center.

Clean and comfortable
The room was very comfortable and clean. The only two complaints are the shower was barely a dribble and the door to the room is so heavy I could hardly open it.
The room was very quiet and restful.

Close to highway so you will hear some traffic noise but it isn’t too loud. Nice safe area. Close to shopping and food. The downtown area of Lake Forest is charming!!

The only reason I did not give a 5 star review is the first night there was a lady at the check in counter and the one serving food near the check out. They were both very rude. The rest of my stay everyone was extremely nice.
