I loved how clean and homey the room was. It was also reasonably priced and easy to get to. I wasn't a big fan of the down payment to rent the room, especially considering that I'd already paid FOR IT.

While the room was clean and just "okay" my husband and I did not like the atmosphere of the hotel. It had a certain odor when walking in and on the first floor. Being pregnant it bothered me more than usual. I really don't recommend families staying here and we certainly won't be staying at another Sonesta.
