Comfy and Quiet

Everything was wonderful, except the coffee ran all over the counter because the top to the pot was broken. The bed was so comfortable and the room was very quiet and comfy. Will definitely stay here again!

The in room kitchens were very nice and modern, clean, with dishwasher, fullsize fridge, and the dishes, utensils, pots and pans and xtra soaps, papertowels added convience was excellent. The extra Large closet for storage and a closed door was a nice touch to not stare at clothes hanging and our suitcases and bathroom large and clean with large tub/shower and soap pumps installed . The only one feature in kitchen was I personally dont like cooking on a electric stovetop and prefer gas and wouldve gladly exchanged for dishwasher space is only minor and my own personal touch is all. The laundry room was very clean and people were friendly , the paying for parking was not great for 2 vehicles at $7 each per day added up the bill for a week stay so a deal if people have or need two spots per night would have helped to the added cost and a small jacuzzi/ pool area would have made it a better week in summer for us also. Sonesta’s we have been too have not let us down on cleanliness or added perks so all in all some out weigh others on what peoples likes/ needs ect is all and due to no pool/ jacuzzi and pay parking did discourage us to add extra days , only due to us needing hotel thru June and the other sonesta that has pool/ jacuzzi has no microwaves in rooms or kitchen so unfortunately we did have to split it up for the month to adifferent hotel that offered these amenities overall for a longer stay.

The rooms were nice and very clean. However, I requested a quiet room and the first room I was assigned was far from it. They put me right next to exterior vents and above in entrance / exit door. The second room was better but still close to the entrance which was very noisy. Also, the whole room shakes when people leave their rooms and slam the doors. I thought we were having little earthquakes. Currently, I'm still awaiting my $200 refundable security deposit which I've not received back four days after checking out. Normally, when I check out of hotels I receive it back within minutes, literally - I know from having stayed in many hotels. Other hotels I'll literally see the refund back immediately and not the case here, so now I'm leaving a complaint because I've tried to inquire about this and I'm still not receiving my refund. If a hotel is going to take this long and hold this much money ($200!) I will not stay there again.
