Would rather stay in a Loves parking lot.

Dingy and minimal. Gaps around the room door that give you a rare glimpse into the hallway even with the door shut so you can really see who is knocking. Breakfast includes delicacies like bread in a sandwich bag. This sonesta is so "essential" they provide one towel. Luckily the window was able to be opened wide so if I came to my senses before spending the night I had the option to throw myself down to the parking lot.

I have stayed here several times for Doctor appointments. Usually average. This time they put me on the first floor in a room adjoining the lobby/breakfast area. Besides the steady people traffic on the main floor, at 5 AM a group of workers converged for conversation and laughter. Not pleasant when you plan to sleep until 7:30! Lots of vehicles revving engines and beeping horns before 6 am. They really need to up the breakfast selections too. Most all carbs, no fruit, no protein.

Very run down. Heater broken. Tv remote broken. The front desk staff was nice and tried to help but the room we were assigned is not fit to be rented out. We were exhausted and it was clean which is the reason we didn’t move to another hotel
