Would never recommend
Disappointing, to say the least. Two days before check-in and weeks after I reserved the room, I was told on the phone that my room would be close to an exit, which is important to me because I am disabled. When we got to the desk I was told the type of room I reserved didn’t exist near a door. The room was not nice and certainly not for the price we paid. The furniture was very worn out and dated. The cobwebs were awful and all over the ceilings. The bathroom had a strange odor and several insects. Fruit flies in the kitchen. Kitchen cabinets without handles. There’s a daily charge for parking in a large, uncovered and unsecured lot. Breakfast was mediocre. This place is a dump.

Price gouging not clean
Cob webs all over ceiling no smoking and entire property, including parking lot so if you want to have a beer and a smoke, you have to go stand on the street like a bum rooms had cobwebs all over it as I’ve stated before they charge you for parking which you did not know about until you check in, which is ridiculous overall I will never stay at another sonesta ever again

Nice hotel
We came for our son’s Navy graduation. Our room was clean and comfortable. Bed needed to be a bit firmer for me. Fireplace was a bonus as one night it helped take the chill away. Ate breakfast only once and it’s standard for continental breakfast. Bathroom was clean. All n all a good stay. Would recommend.

Mediocre at best
The sofa bed was horrible. Had to lay the cushions down on top of it to make it somewhat comfortable. I called and went to the front office to request a hair dryer. Never received one.
