My stay at the sonesta was good ,I was a little worried at first because the pool was closed & I was looking forward to swimming, I couldn’t get in the fitness room to work out and my room I had at first looked like someone tried to break in! But over all . I stayed because is was clean and quiet .I sleep like a princess, the workers were wonderful & polite and the restaurant around the hotel was delicious. I would stay there again.

The only thing that was good about this property is that it was a roof over our head it was not refundable or I wouldn't have stayed and I sure wouldn't have stayed if my children would have been with me it is not safe there is people walking around outside all hours of the night hollering , you can hear every thing and every vehicle that's on the interstate All night Long the week before I stayed there there was three people shot one block over it is not a good neighborhood and especially not good if you have children one lady at the front desk Sarah she was very rude the lady for the breakfast watches you eat breakfast just stands there and watches you the whole time not to mention that I was in one room and the TV went out and they moved me to another room and at midnight on my last night someone was trying to break into my room because they headed marked as vacant they didn't put on there that I was staying there it was very scary I do not recommend zero Stars

Poor service. No one frequently at front desk and phone not answered promptly. Free breakfast is a joke The only hot food is the waffle you make yourself. The hotel needs serious renovation. Major potholes in parking lot. Positive many restaurants within 5 minutes.

Do not stay here - they will give any one access to your room and your things will be gone and then not refund your deposit back . I am filling a negligence lawsuit against this hotel and the owner/operator and the employee conducting shady inappropriate business .
