This Sonesta Suites was nice and clean. It was a nice room for what it provided. I needed a refrigerator as I was carrying food with me. The bed was comfortable and there was a large sofa and a desk available. I only stayed for several hours as I had to get on the road really early. The friendly faces I came in to, though, made my stay really comforting. I appreciated this property for that. However, it made me think that all Sonesta properties are created equal, and chose to stay at another. They are not all equal. I would learn this one may have been stellar in comparison to others.

I selected this hotel because it had a 9.0 rating on Expedia. Definitely not worth anywhere near the $223 nightly price. I give the room we were assigned a 1.0 rating. The room looked worn out. old, and dirty. It smelled musty. There was a large stain on the sofa and another large stain on the carpeted floor by the desk. The bed looked like it was hastily made up. We cancelled our stay. The front desk offered to move us to a different room but we declined. We ended up at the Hilton Embassy Suite in downtown Charleston for $30 less.

The staff were helpful and friendly. 5 stars for them. The cleanliness was fair; there were splatters of paint on different pieces of furniture (hot pink paint, like nail polish) as well as hand prints and cheek prints on the mirror. One of the pans had been scorched by a previous user. Overall I would stay here again; but if the cleanliness was the same I would be inclined to find other accommodations.

Look for a different place

The room was dirty and had hair/mold in the sinks. Hairs were on the floor and the room did not look vacuumed. The pull out had dirty sheets too. Also not disclosed but you have to pay $20 to park. Spots were very limited. If you like to get high you can hang out in the halls. Maybe that helps ppl not care about the room or its cleanliness? How it has a 9 is beyond me.

Overall, this is a very safe and quiet property to book. A little off the beaten path uphill from downtown, it’s a former residence inn converted by Sonesta. The furniture and carpeting needs some upgrading as do the drapes. I always feel comfortable here and safe, however.

Decent lodgings but nothing special.

Exciting stay, fire alarm went off at 8:30 pm and everyone had to stand around in the parking lot for an hour until the fire department gave the all clear. Somebody made toast in their room and set off the fire alarm. The room was large, nicely laid out and clean. The breakfast was not very good with limited options and amounts. There is no ice machine on the premises. Was told to use ice maker in refrigerator which didn't work.

Wow. $5 to park. Why. The place has a massive parking lot and is the middle of an industrial park. On top of that the road is destroyed leading to the building. Potholes galore. $15 to check in early? At 1pm? At this point you should just lie to your guests and say the room isn’t ready. Ridiculous. Kitchen in room was disgusting. Wouldn’t touch any cutlery. Also a nice gross red smudge on the toilet seat. The breakfast is the only thing this place has going for it. Blown away this has a 9* rating on hotels.com.

Four Alarm Shower!

The suite was clean, well kept and comfortable. The pool looked clean and well kept. Breakfast was basic plus (scrambled eggs, ham and potatoes, a pancake maker, oatmeal, and breads. there was also apples and bananas which were somehow both over and under-ripe). MY ISSUE COMES WITH TAKING A SHOWER! AMAZING, HOT, GOOD WATER PRESSURE... AND IN THE MIDST OF IT A VERY LOUD ALARM GOES OFF. Leaves me jumping out of the shower soaking wet trying to figure out what's going on. A call to the front desk, and they let me know that it is a known issue. Steam sets off the smoke detectors -- and they're not going to do anything about this God-aweful noise that makes you jump out of the shower. They just told me to keep the door shut when I shower. The next day, take shower with the door shut. Get out, open the door to get dressed -- same thing with the God-aweful noise, even with the shower not running. I bet you enough people take 3 am showers to make the neighbors around them complain and the hotel will figure something out to fix this issue!
