Convenience and comfort

I always enjoy my stay here. Its location is perfect… walking distance from my favorite local restaurant and shopping center. Loved the room with a microwave (hate that most hotels do not have microwaves in their rooms). Overall wonderful experience.

Check-in was fast. The lady behind the counter was super helpful, especially when we checked in at night. She even called my room when she found out. I have forgot something at the front desk. The room was clean. The bed was very comfortable, but the shower water pressure was very light and the tub drained extra slow. I had to wait about five minutes after my wife got out of the shower for me to get in the shower because that’s how long the drain took to empty out the water. Also, a huge safety issue is the front door to the room would not close on its own. You had to slam the door shut to have a possibility of closing the door. When I had left to go get my forgotten item from the check-in desk, I thought the door Had closed all the way behind me because I heard the sound, but it was actually the sound of the lock just hitting the frame of the door. So when I came back, I was surprised that the door had not fully closed. Thank God because that could’ve been dangerous since my wife was in the room by herself at the time. Other than that, my stay was pretty good. The only thing is this is the second Sonestra I’ve stayed at where the water pressure has been trash. Not sure if it’s a coincidence or a problem throughout the system. Idk.

Great Quick Getaway

My wife and I booked this last minute as a getaway evening. The front desk staff was very friendly. Our room was nice and clean. If you drive a full size crew cab truck the parking lot spaces can be a little tight. The lobby has a print out of local restaurants which was very useful.

Good stay

This was a last minute trip, for the most part it was a nice stay. The only thing I would want to change is the decor, you can tell they spend more money on the lobby than the rooms themselves, the rooms had a weird smell to them and the carpets looked a little suspicious. The elevator was really really old to the point we just took the stairs instead. They have a pool, the pool was really nice but really really small. The staff were really really nice and pleasant.

The staff was understanding, caring, respectful, knowledgeable and went above and beyond to make my stay as comfortable and welcoming as possible. This reservation was a urgent last minute request.. I originally hit booked Ramada by Wyndham Baltimore West and that was a total disaster, walked in Sonesta was the best decision I made. Thanks to the staff for making my 5 days & 4 nights, 1st time visiting Maryland a memorable vacation. Keep up the amazing job. I will be back next summer.

Front desk staff would not change my credit card at checkout, even though I selected “pay at property”. 3 staffers said because I booked through Expedia, they can’t change the card on file!?!! Very unwilling to help or even try! I booked 3 rooms for our group and they wouldn’t add other names to rooms for them to check in. After calling a 3rd time (and talking to 3rd different person) did someone finally help me add a name. Young man was very nice in fact. Otherwise Front desk people were not friendly at all.
