There was no remote for our room and the front office staff was very rude and not accommodating in trying to help resolve the issue. When we had questions he(Alex) was very dismissive and has an unpleasant attitude. 10 out of 10 would not recommend because of him

looked like it had been a half way house or rehab facility before, carpets were filthy, no hot water, pool water was green, just the worst. Sonesta should have refurbished this hotel before they put their name on it. Will never use a Sonesta brand again.

The place was filthy, and the locks seemed to be broken on the front door. Not very relaxing. They had no bell carts or anything available to help me with my luggage, and nobody offered to help despite my multiple bags.

Save your money we had a last minute trip and at the moment we were trying to save a few bucks but should have paid the extra somewhere else. The looks are deceiving in the lobby. Once you get to the hall ways it’s bad. Every time I got to my room hallway I got very dizzy and light headed the smell of cigarette smoke & ashes has just overcame those halls, there was literally a guy smoking a cigarette in the hall as we were walking to our room. I have to close my nose till I get to my room for fresh air. There was no cable all week which I understand with the hurricane but a notice ahead of time would have been good. Twice when we went on the elevator it shook really really bad I had to grab onto my fiancé because I thought was shaking that bad we thought it was gonna get stuck & didn’t open for awhile I did not let me or my children get on it after that. Overall I would not stay here again. It was not worth the money.

The receptionist at the check-in did not show any customer service skills. The hotel does not look clean. Common areas such as the elevator and hallways are neglected and dirty. The carpet in the room and bathroom require more cleaning.

I had to change rooms three times, every room that I was given either had an foul odor, rust stains, horrible carpet, scratches and holes in the walls. I believe their tenancy consists of people living at the hotel.

Experience not so good. After looking at the webpage made it seem more appealing than when we got there. The elevators were broken. We had to take the stairs up and down to the third floor and back and also when we requested towels and condiments like soap and the usual that the hotel is supposed to offer those items were not available. I was only able to receive some bars of soap and no clean towels upon request. The place was on the low end.

Basic travel stop only
It was what you pay for, basic hotel, basic amenities. The elevator wasn't working so for someone who's using a cane and had bags this was not good.. then the toilet didn't flush in the morning and there was no remote. The beds only had sheets no coverlet or bedspread, so we felt uncovered. Coffee was closed at 1030 so no coffee for us.
