Nice staff

Yes

Hotel is clean, but seems to be mismanaged and understaffed.

I recently stayed at Sonesta Hotel and Resorts Columbus Downtown for a work trip, and I would not recommend this hotel. Housekeeping was inconsistent from the start. My room was not cleaned after my first day, and I was told service is only provided upon request. Even after requesting it for the next day, the room was still not cleaned. When they finally did service the room, only the bed was made and towels were replaced—surfaces, bathroom, and floors were not cleaned at all. The most concerning issue was finding a bedbug in the bed during our stay. This is every traveler’s worst nightmare. When I reported it, the staff apologized, but their reaction made it seem like this may not have been an isolated incident. Additionally, when I opened the curtains, I found dirty socks covered in pet hair left behind, which clearly shows the room was not properly cleaned or inspected. There were also billing concerns. Even though the charges to my room were eventually zeroed out, there were still charges on the bill that should not have been there in the first place. This raises concerns about their attention to detail and billing accuracy. Also worth noting: the hotel restaurant is overpriced, so I recommend dining elsewhere. Overall, between the cleanliness issues, lack of proper housekeeping, the bedbug incident, and billing concerns, I would strongly suggest choosing a different hotel.

The room was dirty. The sheets were yellowed and the smell was very musty
