Verified Reviews of Best Western Chicago Southland
Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked recently: "Our room was good, hallway carpet smelled of pets."
Overall Score3.0/ 5
Need to check if I was double charged on my American Express. Once by reservation person and once by Motel it self.
Diane R. (Individual traveler, booked 1 room), from 
15-Sep-2022 Verified Review, stayed from Sat Sep 10 to Sun Sep 11 2022 at a $163.99 average nightly rate. 
"A place to sleep. not much more."
Overall Score3.0/ 5
Very basic hotel stay option. Not a lot of amenities. Wasn't happy that their very small common area/breakfast area shut down at 11pm and the hotel worker wouldn't let me stay and do work in the area. You get what you pay for.
Robert G. (Individual traveler, booked 1 room), from
27-Jul-2022 Verified Review, stayed from Thu Jul 21 to Sun Jul 24 2022 at a $131.99 average nightly rate. "Absolutely the worst Best Western I have ever stayed at."
Overall Score1.0/ 5
Housekeeping services non existant, staff rude, abrupt, no customer service skills. Elevator full of debris. Hallways dirty needed to be cleaned. Was told full breakfast was included in the room stay. The breakfast that was presented was a glorified continental. It was impossible to find staff if I has any questions. I would steer anyone who asked me for a hotel recommendation to stay away from this property.
Matthew S. (Individual traveler, booked 1 room), from
25-May-2022 Verified Review, stayed from Thu May 19 to Mon May 23 2022 at a $122.99 average nightly rate. "I was over charged twice. 1. $317.76. 2.$499.05."
Overall Score1.0/ 5
As far as Best Western is concerned, the hotel is good, except I was double charged. And when I asked the receptionist about the overcharged to help me ratify the charges,she told me she can't help me because they don't have anything do with booking or reservations on line. I was so unhappy and very disappointed they she approached me.

Overall Score1.0/ 5
Hotel was listed as smoke free and it was not. A family in our group had to exchange rooms due to the over powering smell of smoke in their room. Also we weren't able to use our alarm clock and light on the night stand as it was water logged and couldn't get another room. Very disappointed and had I not prepaid would have booked someplace else.
Colia B. (Individual traveler, booked 1 room), from
30-Jun-2020 Verified Review, stayed from Fri Jun 26 to Sun Jun 28 2020 at a $73.99 average nightly rate. "What a mess."
Overall Score2.0/ 5
Called to cancel one night and the entire stay was cancelled, no itinerary number or confirmation number would work. Was staying for basketball so didn't get the discounted price since I had to re book. Even after showing emails and phone records of everything. We had one towel in our room and they didn't have ANY more available during our stay. We were also told the pool was open but it was closed for maintenance. Horrible weekend. We will NOT be staying there again.

30-Jun-2020 Verified Review, stayed from Fri Jun 26 to Sun Jun 28 2020 at a $73.99 average nightly rate. "Water logged everything closed."
Overall Score1.0/ 5
On check in noticed alarm clock was not plugged in. Went to do so and when I moved the alarm clock it was sitting in a pool of water. Lifted it to see the source and water poured out of the alarm clock. Told the front desk so it could be addressed and was told that house keeping can't enter a room once checked in. I told them I noticed that the light was also not plugged in and I was concerned for safety reasons to plug it in. Was told that they could not exchange our room as they were fully booked. I was traveling with three teenage basketball players who all needed to charge phones. Also was told this was a smoke free hotel which is a must as I have a child with SEVERE allergies. The smell of smoke was so great in the halls and rooms that it was over powering. Another family in our party had to move rooms the day before due to the strong smell of smoke. When I called and spoke with the front desk prior to making the reservation I was informed that yes they had breakfast and the pool area with hot tub was open. Both were a must due to traveling the basketball players that needed the fuel before the game and the hot tub for soar muscles after. If we had not carpooled and PREPAID for this room we would have canceled.

We were not able to check in until430 because our room was not ready. Then the second night we were there the second floor had kids running up and down the halls. This was on a Monday night. Grant3d the front desk addressed it but would have like to have had a curfew sign posted. The breakfast was fair but could have used some fresh fruit like bananas or apples.
