We stayed here for a week. My wife is sick. On the last day we were at MdAnderson cancer center for more medical appointments and came back late due to these appointments. We extended a day of stay when we got back using the same reservation. Angie processed it. After our checked out the next day, the security deposit was charged $30 for past checked out time. Angie of front desk did not inform us about the $30 charge when we extended a day stay. Or we could have booked to the hotel next to us where we were regular guests in the past without this penalty. In due diligence front desk Angie should have informed us. Broken icemaker. We were told to go to next hotel (sister company) for ice.

They demand a $100 deposit offering return same day on checkout and 5 days to return if credit card is used. No extra towels. Uou need to return dirty towels in front desk to get replaced if you need additional towels. I stayed 4 nights. Washing machine never worked. Ice dispenser never worked. Need iron box? Go to frontdesk and promise to return to get one. Want to dry a towel? No stand for it?

The staff was very friendly, helpful and kind. Lots of space to park, very clean room. There is no shops nearby, and it’s one way road there and it’s kind of easy to miss your turn to the hotel cause there is no signs on this hotel, that was the only inconvenient thing there, but I liked my stay there a lot.

The kid at the front desk was more about his phone than the guest. I went without tv because he could not do anything about it. The pool area was so hot the kids could only swim for about 15-30 mins. Worst place we have stayed at during our trip of 32 days on the road for the summer cross country with the grands.

Sonesta mistakenly refunded my $100 room deposit to another guest's credit card. The ice machine, coin laundry and business center are broken/ closed. Housekeeping is polite and professional but Sonesta charged me an additional $100 room deposit ($200 total) after mistakenly refunding my original $100 room deposit to another guest's credit card. Be very careful at Sonesta, document all transactions and save all receipts!

We got there and our reservation was offered to another guest. We also met over 50 people who were in the same situation and were trying to figure out what the heck happened. They did relocate us to another hotel that was very, very terrible, dirty and in a bad neighborhood. The back door was opened all night and we were worried that someone was going to sneak in from the back door and harm my family. Never again will I stay with them
