It’s an ok place to stay. Understand that it’s an extended stay location which isn’t a bad thing but you should know before going into the location

We were in town for a wedding and this was the perfect place for a busy weekend! Helpful staff, clean rooms, and great parking.

The air conditioning in our room was not working properly, and I reported the issue three separate times. Maintenance was sent to our room once, but the problem was never resolved. We were told we would be moved to another room, but that never happened. The room was so unbearably hot that I had to purchase a fan out of my own pocket just to make our stay somewhat tolerable. To make matters worse, the room had a strong odor that smelled like cat urine. I reported this issue as well, only to be told that they had nothing available to eliminate the smell other than Lysol spray. This was completely unacceptable. Additionally, the hotel advertised that pots, pans, and cooking utensils were provided, yet none were available in our room. I ended up having to purchase these items myself just to be able to cook. What made this experience even more frustrating was the lack of urgency, communication, and follow-through from the staff. I gave the hotel multiple opportunities to correct these issues, but nothing was properly addressed. Guests should not have to spend additional money purchasing basic necessities or suffer through uncomfortable conditions when paying for accommodations that are advertised to include these amenities. Overall, this stay was uncomfortable, inconvenient, and a complete disappointment. I expected much better customer service

I had roaches crawling on my food in my bed. It was a terrible experience. The outside was clean, but the inside was not.

Went to check in two hours earlier the room was ready, but they still charged a $25 fee and the front desk lady had attitude. Then proceeded to put us on the third floor all the way around the building the room smelt awful as if somebody had smoked in it or dogs had urinated in it. The shower had no hot water was lukewarm. There was only one remote for the TV when there’s two TVs . No hairdryer in the room called front desk. Had to go all the way down to pick it up because they didn’t have anybody available to deliver it. When I plugged it in, it started smoking I had to go all the way back down to get another one then I was told if I did not bring the second one back I was going to be charged a $50 fee so upon checkout, had to go all the way downstairs again to return it and make sure they did not charge my card an additional $50 for a used hairdryer. The parking lot is dimly lit. The beds were very uncomfortable and the pillows were very thin. The couch were very worn outdated and lumpy and smelly the laundr. Brand new washers and dryers was a pleasant amenity
- 4/5
The hot water was never hot and the bathroom needs to be kept up better. The shower bar almost came out and the ceiling has a bubble from water. Other than that, the location is easy to drive to and there is ample parking. The staff was extremely nice.

It was clean no bugs. Will reserve again if the room I get doesn't smell. The front desk girl that checked me in was so sweet.

Clean tight room, lovely staff! Everything you need is right around the corner.

Check in was ok front desk friendly and attentive. The only issues I had were the 2nd night I was there the fire alarm went off at 2am! We did not know if it was a real fire or what as there was no front desk staff on duty! Most of the guest exited the building the fire department showed up and basically said someone set the alarm off with smoke. The rooms have kitchens so itncould have been anyone. The other issue was the water in my room was very luke warm to cold! I could not take a real hot shower at all. Also my room did have a musty odor but I assumed it was the carpet probably old. Overall ok place but I don't think I would stay at that particular location again.
- 3/5
The room is spacious, needs a lot of updating. Couch was stained as well as some of the chairs. The shower water did not get hot no matter when I tried to shower. The staff was very friendly and helpful however I won’t be staying there again

There was a phone number posted on the front door, so I called it multiple times before someone finally answered. I was told that someone was on the way to let me into the hotel. I then waited outside for approximately another 30 minutes, and no one ever showed up. At that point, I gave up and had to find accommodations at the hotel next door. I then had to file a claim seeking reimbursement for a hotel room that I had already paid for but was never able to access. What made the experience even more frustrating was being told afterward that I should have contacted the hotel in advance to let them know I would be checking in late. I was not aware that this was required, and my reservation and payment had already been accepted. If a hotel accepts and confirms a prepaid reservation, a guest should reasonably expect to be able to check in when they arrive, or at the very least receive clear advance notice of any special late check-in requirements. Instead, I was left standing outside a locked hotel in the middle of the night after multiple phone calls and ultimately had to find somewhere else to stay. This was an extremely frustrating and unacceptable experience, and I would not recommend this hotel based on what happened.

My reservation was not respected and they left me on the street.

The best thing about this property was it's very reasonable price, especially for its location in the Dallas area, near the Dallas North Tollway. And the neighborhood was quiet. In addition, the staff was quite helpful. On the negative side of the equation, our room was a bit shabby: The chair at the desk was shedding upholstery, there was food on the carpet next to our bed, the dishwasher was full of dirty dishes and there were no waste baskets. Maybe you'll get a better room than we did.

good location

Upon arrival, I had to switch rooms because my initial room had mold all over the ceiling. We went to 3 different rooms until we found one that was suitable. The staff was really helpful but the hotel was old and moldy. The rooms don’t include pots/pans, you have to check them out at the front desk. My new room still had mold in the bathroom. The door was malfunctioning, so I would have to hit it open and close with my shoulder. The sheets/comforter weren’t too clean. There were huge crickets in my room coming through my AC unit. I had to request an ironing board because one was not in my room. The room was spacious and in a convenient location. Overall I wouldn’t stay here again.

Alot of things. I stayed here for 3+ months but in the end because of my flight issues when i only asked for a deposit waiver 2 3 times they were treating me like i am asking for a free stay. They were rude and disrespectful. Its not worth it!

It was safe, nothing else. I have stayed here for more than 3 months but i asked for deposit waiver for 2 to 3 times because i got stuck with my flight issues and they were treating me like i am asking for a free stay. I mean this was pathetic that i never complained about anything when there were a lot of things i could have like the toilet, utensils, room cleaning and a lot of other things.

It was safe but not worth the money i spent!

I mean this was pathetic that i never complained about anything when there were a lot of things i could have like the toilet, utensils, room cleaning and a lot of other things. In start i did complained but no one ever showed up to solve that. They had renovations and they moved me so many times to different rooms with all the stuff but i never complained, i should have done it.

I arrived around 11pm, and there were at least 4-5 suites with trash bags outside the door. When I opened my suite door, there was a cockroach on the counter. The bed at some faint stains. I just couldn’t stay on the property after seeing this.

We needed a Kitchenette. The low price seemed too good to be true. There are renovations going on but that did not affect us. It was worth every dollar.

I stayed for 3 nights. There were no room services at all. No door sign for requesting room service. Body wash bottle was empty, I talked to front desk about it, but it was was not refilled at all, I had to use shampoo, instead. No hand soap at the sink in the bathroom for use after toileting. I also had to use shampoo, intsead.
- 4/5
The staff was great as well as the room, I only complain about an awful smell of old urine in one of the staircases and the others smelling off as well. This location could use some TLC but it seemed like they were renovating as we were leaving so they’re on top of it! Enjoyed our stay overall!

Highly would not recommend. Didn’t know if I was checking in or looking for the local plug. On arrival people were running after each other that were stealing each other money . Booked a room with a queen and pull out couch for my family and on arrival they check me into a single queen and tell me “ sorry Expedia changed it which is absolute rubbish . This place should be demolished with the staff for everyone’s benefit. Checked out immediately. The hotel is absolutely disgusting I mean my shoes underneath were cleaner. Wouldn’t even had stayed if it was free. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY OR RISK YOUR HEALTH!!!!

Room and hallway had a strong smell of pet urine. Room did not appear as it did in the pictures. The room was very dark had broken tiles in the bathroom and had tape on various things in the living room. The man at the front desk was very rude and had an attitude when helping guest. Overall I would never stay here again nor recommend it.

You get what you pay for but these rooms include a full kitchen . Suites & bathrooms are clean. 7/10. I always enjoy my stay and get the most use out of it for sure. I wish they would fix the grill on the property or provide more kitchen utensils but other than that, my stay is always enjoyable.

The room was deplorable. It was NOTHING like the images portrayed on the website. There was a fan on the table cooling the room, and additionally it seemed to be an attempt at masking the odor in the room. An unacceptable offer of vacationing away from home.

Mid, room was clean but the hotel building isn’t clean. Gotta pay 100$ deposit fee per night plus 5$ per night just to park there. Overall experience wasn’t worth the price

Even on a semi busy holiday (valentines), I couldn’t get early check in. They said there a franchise not corporate. The gm said she can do what she wants. Would never recommend this hotel to anyone.

I thought it was nice. Front desk was nice and i loved how in the morning it smelled so clean in the halls. Bed was very comfortable.
- 1/5
health & safety codes or customer service standards The first room i was assigned i stepped into the hallway and the smell of smoke, weed, and just gross-ness. Once i made it to the room the smell in the room smelled worse than the hall, cigarette smoke. Plus the room was not clean at all, bugs, eyelash random hairs in the bed. The split A/C unit was not attached properly- the ceiling in the living room looked as it was going to gall through, brown, spackles falling off, the toilet leaked. NOT CLEAN I called to the FD and asked if a staff could come check the room- FD solution was to switch rooms. I asked to see the room first, room 2 looked and smelled clean, i didn't see any signs of bugs, pests. looked barely used. that was the room i stayed in. NOTE: the hotels keycards would deactivate daily & randomly- one staff said it was a daily issue, they are ready to reprogram card. VERY LOUD construction (roof repairs 2-3 days all day) When I asked the FD about the construction i was told there was a note on my door, there was a note from boiler repairs weeks prior. no notice when booking or prior to the 730AM og= During my stay I found out that Sonesta is a franchise now, and the hotels are operated by owners, not corporatio

I've stayed in some sketchy hotels before, but I think this takes the top spot. Active leaks from ceilings in the hallways, lingering smell of mildew, rampant drug use on the premises. I will say the two ladies at the front desk were very sweet. When I told them I couldn't stay there, they were very understanding and refunded my payment without any resistance. Lesson learned.

Check-in staff was very friendly. The facilities were a bit outdated, but the room had a medium-sized refrigerator with a freezer, which was great for storing frozen food.

Do not book. My child was bitten by a spider and when trying to make contact with front desk staff they were not available. The lobby had an overly friendly man who was making uncomfortable comments so I decided to leave and call front desk to no avail. They are stating I should have waited an unknown time until a person from front desk was available.

The stay was cool, we killed two xxxl crickets, in our room the third on got away. The air conditioning was kinda crappy cuz the wall one was broke. The staff was cool except the Manager lady that assumed i was going to smoke outside when i was just checking out holding my stuff in my mouth so it wouldn’t break. And she gone keep my deposit. Idk what monica problem was Sunday morning but she irritated tf outta me.

Rooms are outdated. No housekeeping services rendered during stay for some reason. Elevator to third floor was down due to the “button being broken,” so I carried my luggage up and down the stairs. Would not recommend.

Just a stay vacation. The room cleanness was very pleasant. There are plenty shopping stores around, even Galleria Mall is lie 5 minutes from the hotel. That's a plus!
