Room was good, but the 'frig froze everything including my salad and apple slices. Very hilly city. This hotel is not near anything else except one restaurant. No microwave in the room, but did have a 'frig. The breakfast was limited, but better than nothing.

Checked in at 9:30pm. Receptionist was nowhere to be found. When she finally showed up she was not personable at all. Barely spoke 2 words to me. We went to our room which was not clean. Bed was unmade. Garbage can was overflowing with garbage. Used towels on bathroom floor. We went back to the receptionist to make her aware of the situation. Her response was “What do you want me to do about it?” When we said we wanted the situation rectified. She told my husband he had an attitude. After she was unable to reach the hotel manager she begrudgingly “cleaned” the room with another coworker who at least was apologetic and polite. The carpet was never vacuumed and given the short amount of time they spent “cleaning” I’m sure it was not done thoroughly. After finally settling in we tried to turn on the tv The remote control was missing a back and the batteries were held in with tape. It barely worked. We were lucky to be able to raise the tv volume. Changing the channel would have been impossible. The bathroom had mold on the ceiling and the shower light was not working. The shower consisted of a shower hose hung limply from the wall with no way to affix it to the wall. Never ever, ever again will we stay at this hotel.

Girl at the front desk was super nice. There were some rowdy individuals in the room above me and beside me. Can't really control that. No complaints about the property. I think Morgantown itself needs more street lighting especially in that area. It's very confusing navigating around to get food at night if you need to drive a bit.

Stay away

First time at a Sonesta..and likely our last. It was convenient. The check in person was nice The room seemed ok, until it began to smell. We figured it was someone cooking fish or worse next door but it didn’t dissipate overnight. It didn’t help our bathroom fan was broken. Breakfast was a joke. Stale Biscuits, gravy, a little bread. A community pitcher for juice (oh, that's sanitary) The link won't let me upload photos. I went to report the smell and ask about milk for the oatmeal and the lady looked at me like I shot her dog. No thanks..
