The worst part of the stay was workers being outside of my window 8am the first morning. They were painting the side of the building including the windows. There was no prior knowledge that work would be done directly outside my room.

The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Carmen went out of her way to make sure we had everything we needed. The room was clean and lobby was neat. Room updated and cheerfully decorated. Perfect for our overnight stay.

Aug 15, 2024
I’m sorry to say but I will never stay here again. I had to have my room switched 3 times. The first room, the walls were filthy and nasty. The furniture was ripped and old. The room smelled horrible. The second room, the walls were filthy and not cleaned. The furniture in that room was ripped and torn. The door to the room wouldn’t lock from the outside. The 3rd room was better than the first two but not by much. Again the walls looked as if they have never been cleaned. The furniture looked very old and warn out. This Hotel looks like a roach hotel. They had the nerve to hold 100 dollar incidental fee, as if these rooms were in satisfactory condition. I have pictures that I will be uploading soon. Overall this Hotel is nasty and unclean. They are in it just for the money and not for customer satisfaction.

Unless Sonesta makes this Right, Never Again!
The Room was not clean to say the least. Bathroom was extremely dirty and the Toilet had feces stains inside and out. The bed did not have the usual covers that You would expect to find to keep it free of Bed Bugs and I ended up inspecting the whole matress to insure it didn't have any. It wasn't even covered with a fitted sheet it was covered with a flat sheet. The Comforter was dirty so We removed it altogether. The side tables were extremely dirty. All be told as Tired as We were We ended up taking a Late Night Trip 11PM to CVS which was the only place open at this time. To buy cleaning supplies and spent the next 2 Hours cleaning and still couldn't bring Ourselves to get comfortable in this place. Never again Sonesta. I attempted to load photos but it wasn't allowing Me to do so but I can provide on request. I work hard for My Money as an Officer and this was a total waste and then some and an extreme inconvenience! Sad part is that this place was recommended to Us but unless there's ample restitution, Never Again!

The carpet was very dirty and all room doors needed more force to open and close.
The room keys given at check-in were not working the second day, and had to get it changed. Loud music being played by neighboring room at night.

House keeping in bedroom window
It was fine up to the last day. Quiet, comfortable, front desk was nice. The people next door were cool. I extended my stay for another since I was enjoying it so much that I said let me stay another night, the next day house keeping was non stop banging on my door. Then they opened my bedroom window where I was sleeping and said I didnt know anyone was in here. Really?
