I was shocked at how unfriendly the check in and out employees were. They acted like they could have cared less about customer service. No smiles, no thank you, nothing.

We love the Royal Sonesta, but they could use more water pressure in the shower.

We have always stayed at the Royal Sonesta. It's location is exactly what meets our needs. The only concern I had was the lack of high water pressure in the sink and shower. We will stay with them again.
