The front desk was amazing. The First Gentleman was very helpful. The lady was great to find us the same room on a weekend, because our car broke down and had to stay another night.

I recently stayed at the Sonesta and unfortunately had a very disappointing experience. For over four days there was constant stomping and heavy noise coming from the room above me. I called the front desk and complained four days in a row, but the issue continued throughout my stay. I want to be clear that I am not blaming the staff, as they were polite and responsive when I called. However, the noise was never resolved, and because of it I lost multiple days of work and rest. This was extremely frustrating and made my stay unpleasant. I hope management takes this seriously and provides a solution or compensation, as I feel this was not the level of service and comfort I expected from Sonesta.

This location was a bit farther from the Pectrum Center than I anticipated, but it was quieter and cleaner with less wear and tear on the facility and room. Unfortunately, there was some kind of plumbing noise that went on throughout the night, making it hard to sleep. It was a liquid or mechanical sound on the exterior wall. The internet was nearly impossible to connect to, so I used my phone as a hotspot instead. I tried calling the front desk on the phone provided in the room, but the phone was dead.

Very nice stay. Loved the spacious room and clean quiet property. Bed was a little uncomfy but that was the only hiccup. Nice location too.

The staff at the hotel were rude and uncooperative with us. They stated since we booked our stay with a third party they could not help us resolve our issues. We wanted to leave a day early but they would not help us to get credit for the extra day we did not use.
