2 nights midweek with an outdoor pool (seasonal)

For the price, it exceeded our expectations. The pool was in great condition. Front desk staff was excellent. The coffee was good, but I'd go someplace else for breakfast. Nothing walkable, but a ton of options are very nearby.

This is a well run business. The front desk is particularly impressive with client-management and response to needs. Ms. Carol is one seasoned veteran in that regard, firm but very fair. Professional yet warm enough to accommodate your needs but just come correct and be honest. Customers should just endeavor to respect the property because some dog owners are unscrupulous by not picking up after their pets with human size poops. Overall, I’d recommend Sonesta ES without any reservation and in clear conscience.
