Bed bugs, disgusting property. Found dirty used wet towel inside the room fridge. My whole back and legs got red rash within 20 mins of lying down in the bed. Gym is broken and not a single machine works. Checked out of the property within 1 hour of check in. Shame on Sonesta brand for having such terrible property under their umbrella.

Never again. Site not letting me upload pics.

We arrived and the elevator was closed. For a 60 year old and 74 year old that was terrible. When we went out the following day at noon I asked a maid if she was cleaning the room and she said the room wasn't on her list. I stopped at the front desk to ask that our room be cleaned (1pm). We came back after a long tiring day to an unmade bed, dirty towels on the floor and the only trash can still overflowing with trash. I went to the front desk and was told SORRY THERE IS NOTHING WE CAN DO. They gave me towels and TRASH BAGS so we could trow our own trash out. When we left and the elevator had a puddle of water.

Terrible experience, broken AC, freezing temp, broken water heater, no hot water on the building, cockroaches, ants coming up from crack by the AC into the room, elevator broken, no maintenance to fix the problem. Request to transfer to another room, where it took around an hour waiting on the loby, and still no hot water. Couldn't spend the night, and left the place arond 10pm. Found put that they charged me an extra $ 24.00 for stainin a multiple times used dirty towel, was cut out of my $100.00 safety diposit. Am really disaponted, and upset. Instead of showing curticy toward all ad srvices an give a discount or reimbarice my reasirvation for a night that I did not stay, they charged me. This is apsolot scam. I may lost some money and bad experiance, but they lost repetation, and what value would a person or a buseness worth without a good repetatin and good experiances with their clints! I will never go back to this property again!
