We've stayed at this Sonesta Suites before and had a positive experience, but this time was marked by a not fully cleaned room, stained box springs, broken lamp and burned out bulb in the kitchenette area.
Would not stand up straight.
Too scared to check the condition of the mattress!

Absolutely the worst breakfast ever! Brewed in room coffee was also the worst I have ever tasted. Living room couch was old worn and its "cushions" were collapsed and therefore the seating was uncomfortable and abnormally low.

Tiny home away from home.

Clean, quiet room, good breakfast options. Could have used more hangers; only four were provided. Missing a fork, and the ice maker did not work.

The staff are very nice. The outside of the property looks nice, the area is great but the linens were dirty. My pillowcase had makeup and dirt all over it and the bathroom smelled moldy. The couches look old and soiled. They need new furniture and new linens.

They gave our room to somebody else by mistake then sent us to a room smaller than the one we reserved. Then we complained to be told 1 bedroom was no longer available. Then afterwards they finally put us in a 2 bedroom but the room was full of ants and not very clean

Water ants

For the most part it was clean. But it had water ants and they showed up at night and it was alot!! They couldn't change my room that night and wanted me to wait around instead of enjoying my vacation to give me another room. And didn't offer any kind of discount.
