The only good thing I can say about this place was the bed. Other than that, it was not a good place to stay even for a night. We had a cockroach scurry across the desk while eating. The curtains also had this big brown stain on them. The pull out mattress had stains as well. The lady who checked us in was rude too.

I had an excellent visit! Such a nice and clean hotel with a beautiful view of the pool and city. The only qualm that our family had was that the pool could be kept open a bit longer than 8pm. Besides this, the gym was the best part; very clean with nice equipment and air conditioning!

I had never heard of nor stayed in a Sonesta. Other hotels in the area were very expensive so I took a chance on Sonesta. It exceeded my expectations. While not luxurious, it is very nice, clean, well run and good value for the cost. I will look to use the brand again in the future.
