Pros:

I didn’t like my stay. The room had a very unpleasant, musty odor, and the bathroom was dirty. Additionally, the bedroom door lock was faulty and came off easily, which was a safety concern since my one-and-a-half-year-old daughter could open it without any problem.

Pros:

I got stuck in Houston after my flight got canceled and wasn’t offered a hotel voucher. Got on Expedia found this hotel down the street and quickly booked it while it was a great price. Check in was easy and the room was nice. What sent it over the edge was the fact that they offered a free shuttle back to the airport the next day so I can fly out.

Bed was super comfy
Pros:

The bed was awesome, i really need a great big comfy bed to sleep after 25+ hours without sleep, the personal was awesome as well, they let me get the room prior to the chek in time due availability, so really grateful for that. Overall great one night stay.

No secure parking
Pros:

Stayed at this Sonesta at the airport because we had an early flight out. We asked if the parking lot was secure and of course they assured us it was. Next morning our window of our vehicle was busted out. They acted like it was an every day occurrence and we’re not responsible. Will not be staying there again.
