The staff at the front desk were great. The hotel was pretty clean, although the upholstered furniture needed cleaning. We had a suite. No desk with chair, and my husband needed to work at times. The sofa and chair in the room were in such terrible shape the we both had trouble getting out of them (bad knees). Every single piece of furniture was scratched and scuffed. The freezer in the room’s refrigerator needed defrosting, and there was a bottle in it from a previous guest. There were no extra blankets in the room, and exactly one hand towel, one bath towel, and washcloth for each of us. We were there 3 nights and there is no cleaning during the stay. We had callout bags for each of the 3 nights (no restaurant), so the garbage piled up. Never again.

The bar not open, the resturant not open, the hot broken, not every room has fridge and microwave, you have to pay for a suite to get those amenities. My towels was yellow. You get what you pay for. It did give me my necessities. Feeling safe, a bed and hot water. I will stay again because of my purpose and its location.

The room was clean but shabby. No alarm clock or microwave or fridge in the room. The table between the beds was slanted. Our waters kept spilling. The bathroom was spacious and nice, however my son is 5x10 and hit his head in the shower. If you're over 6ft, you won't fit. Motel has a lousy complimentary breakfast. Small, whimpy microwave. 14 min to cook macaroni and cheese cup that they charge $4.50 for. The beds were comfortable.

Billed incorrectly, reimbursement uncertain

The furniture was worn which is not why I rated the stay poorly. The Sonesta billed me at a rate different from what I had accepted at Hotels.com. When I asked them to correct it while checking out, I was told it was Hotels.com controlling the billing. After multiple contacts with Hotels.com I am now being told I am told the billing will be corrected in 7-10 days BUT if Sonesta failed to do so, I should contact the credit card company . . .

We were met with a very rude gentleman at the check in desk, when trying to find information we was rolling his eyes and not very informative. Once we finally could check in our carpet in our room was damp, and all our towels were wet and or damp, so not sure if they have dryers that work.

One gentleman at the front desk (I believe a manager) said our room wasn’t ready, which was fine, but he literally said, “there’s nothing we can do for you.” Told us to come back later and didn’t give an option to hold bags. Not the end of the world, but odd customer service. Our king suite only had one full size towel and we unfortunately didn’t notice until showering. Wallpaper was peeling and revealed what looked like mold. Otherwise the room seemed very clean. We were told not to put our room key near any electronics or magnets. It’s awfully difficult to keep a room key away from a phone, but they indicated even a phone could mess with the key. Weird.
