Pros:

Location

Cons:

It was very dated. Needs a refresh and also better staffing in the restaurant. Would also be beneficial if they kept brunch open after 11 for people checking out to eat.

Comfortable and close to the attractions.
Pros:

The proximity to nearby attractions, right on the harbor, easy to walk around the area. We were there for a concert at the stadium, and it was a very easy walk to and from the stadium. We did not have to worry about uber/ parking for the event.

Cons:

I can’t wait for another relaxing getaway to the Sonesta!!
Pros:

Wonderful location with a great view of the harbor. My wife enjoyed the bay window seat with a coach and chairs to entertain family or guests. This entertainment room also had a sofa bed and double doors with curtains to separate it from the simply amazing bed room!
