Pretty good, but 4pm check-in wasn’t
Overall the stay was pretty good. The bed and pillows were comfy, the place looked clean, and it was easy to get to our room. There were some things that could be better though… their check-in was 4pm which is really late. We were in town from San Diego for a wedding and we wanted to check-in between the ceremony and reception. We got to the hotel at 3:45pm and were not allowed to check in early. Following, the AC was really annoying because it turned on and off the entire time. It’s very distracting when trying to sleep. Lastly, I wish there was no carpet. Carpeting was new and it gave off a weird smell. And in general carpeting isn’t cleanly. In the future, I may not return because of the 4pm check-in. It depends on the event.

The Sonesta Hotel is a good deal for the money. My biggest gripe is the extra charge for nightly parking.

At first the property seemed clean. I initially got in the room and removed my sandals. I was in the room for about an hour before I realized there was tiny roaches surrounding my sandals and crawling around the kitchenette. I began inspecting the room even further and found roaches next to the bed and even in the bathroom. I soon became afraid and still am afraid that I exposed myself to these bugs and potentially bring them wherever I go. I filmed everything and made the front desk aware. The lady at the desk was kind and provided me with a different room, however I did not receive a good nights rest as I was concerned about being in another room full of bugs. I did not see anything in the new room, however I did not see anything in the first one when I got there. The replacement room also had a strange smell, but bit my tongue as I did not want to inconvenience myself and the front desk even further. The experience was definitely disappointing and would not feel safe going back there again.
