Room was relatively clean, some surface area cleaning in bathroom shower was needed. Front desk staff was friendly. Parking is obtained primarily in a next-door garage so be prepared to pay by the hour/day. It is less expensive than the valet service. I would recommend paying for the 24-hour option (via a ground floor type-in kiosk) as it is the most economical, then you can come and go as you please. It started over the weekend at $30/day, then went to $20/day during the week.

Overall, we had a great stay!!! The staff is friendly & helpful and they do what they can to address any concerns you may have! They have daily breakfast which is great, but get there early before it’s all gone! The beds are comfy and the rooms are large! It would be great if they invested a little money into fixing and upgrading the bathrooms and rooms as they are a bit run down. The location is great, close to the French quarters! They have valet parking but it takes about 15 to 20 mins to get your car!

Room was spacious, close enough to bourbon/canal street. Most of the staff was really nice, except one gentleman. Breakfast was good, but there were too many people and not enough food out. Get there early if you want food. Noticed room wasn’t that clean. I ended up wiping down quite a bit of the area, which was extremely disappointing.

Actually the problem that i faced is as follows. I checked in Sonesta on 15th Dec Monday at around 9 PM. The person working there swiped my card for $100 deposit. but instead of one time payment, he did recurrent payment and every night I was charged. Most of the transactions were cancelled. but I was charged $156.03 ($75.84 + $80.19). $75.84 was after I checked out. Every day, when i asked they said that they have corrected it and this will not happen. But it kept on happening. Then they repaid the money to Expedia and asked me to get it from you. I tried on your number and the moment I said about this, the person hanged. My room number was 205 and conf. No. is 9191SF172869. I request you to look into this and give my $156.03 back. Thanks

We stayed there for around six days, and the rooms were good. The only issue occurred on the night of check-in, when we were asked to stay at another hotel that was about a 10-minute walk away, which was quite inconvenient, especially at 1:00 a.m. after a long journey and while carrying luggage. Had this been communicated in advance via email or phone, it would not have been a major concern. Overall, the stay experience was good.
