Pleased with stay

Its an older hotel. In fairly good shape though. Quiet, clean. Room was nice. Breakfast was excellent. Pool sparkling clean. Check in and out was a breeze. We really enjoyed our stay. Would use this hotel again for our next trip.

Second time staying here, both times have been a good experience, elevator was loud and squeaky the first time but they have fixed it since then. Rooms are clean and comfortable, breakfast was good. Will definitely stay here again.
Elizabeth, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

I was very disappointed. The room I paid for seemed to be not available , and be prepared for roaches to visit. This made it difficult to sleep and feel comfortable. I hope management addresses the cleanliness issues soon, as this location has potential but needs major improvement in hygiene and maintenance.

My stay at the sonesta was good ,I was a little worried at first because the pool was closed & I was looking forward to swimming, I couldn’t get in the fitness room to work out and my room I had at first looked like someone tried to break in! But over all . I stayed because is was clean and quiet .I sleep like a princess, the workers were wonderful & polite and the restaurant around the hotel was delicious. I would stay there again.
