I stayed at the hotel before in 2022 at a staff retreat with my company. I loved my room then but the hotel gas clearly gone a little downhill. I had to change rooms because my 1st room was cold, the stopper in the tub didn't work, and there were strange noises. My second room was better for warmth, but tub stopper still didn't work and one of the lights in the bathroom kept flickering. Still, the hotel is in a great neighborhood.

Pleasant little cozy stay.
A nice small room. It's not like I planned to do anything besides relax after my day and sleep. I could have used a tv guide as the channels and numbers change from region to region. I would have liked a Sonesta discount for the bar/restaurant. I would have like to go there more but it was so expensive I went elsewhere.
