I really wanted to like this place but a couple things were a disappointment. #1 we very quickly noticed that these are NOT soundproof walls, as advertised. We could clearly hear little feet running around on the floor above us as well as people going up and down the hall and in the room next door. Also #2 though the gym looks great, the treadmill was broken. I had planned to run a 5k on the treadmill the morning of check-out but every time you would get it up to speed, it would slow right back down to a 0.5mph crawl again. Sonesta looks like a nice place and the breakfast was good, but these couple things were irritating.

The hotel is not welcoming. Messy and dirty. The shower did not work, lights did not work in the room, bathroom sink was cracked. Generally a very poor facility.
