The worst experience I've ever had in this hotel. Dirty floors, wet carpets, bunk beds and the attention of the front dest is terrible. On the second day of my reservation they told me that the hotel was full and that I had to leave my room. The return of the money takes many days. Expedia shouldn't recommend this hotel, it's disgusting and all its staff

The staff tried to help with the confusing 3rd party system but ultimately i had to call and figure it out. The pictures made the place seem new and modern, but there was this old and worn look to everything. Tv didnt work, lamp didnt work, lamp shade was dirty. It needs to be replaced with new items or just taken care of better.

Request to Adjust Reservation Dates Dear Sonesta Team, First, I’d like to express our appreciation for a wonderful stay at your hotel. Due to an urgent trip to Virginia, we had to check out earlier today, two days before our original departure date. We would like to extend our stay for another seven days, from March 7th to March 15th. Would it be possible to apply the two unused nights toward this new reservation? We will cover the remaining five nights upon check-in on March 7th. Thank you for your understanding, and I look forward to your confirmation. Best regards, Hikmat

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.
