The stay was good. It’s clean and quiet. Staff was ok, not really welcoming. We couldn’t watch any Television because they had no remotes for us to use. Hoping I get my $100 deposit!

There was no remote for our room and the front office staff was very rude and not accommodating in trying to help resolve the issue. When we had questions he(Alex) was very dismissive and has an unpleasant attitude. 10 out of 10 would not recommend because of him

looked like it had been a half way house or rehab facility before, carpets were filthy, no hot water, pool water was green, just the worst. Sonesta should have refurbished this hotel before they put their name on it. Will never use a Sonesta brand again.

The place was filthy, and the locks seemed to be broken on the front door. Not very relaxing. They had no bell carts or anything available to help me with my luggage, and nobody offered to help despite my multiple bags.
