The place had a smell...because people cook in their rooms. The AC was noisy and the phone charger in the alarm clock didn't work so I couldn't charge my phone in the room. The elevator inspection was 2 years expired and there are several ceiling tiles missing in the hallways where you can see pipes.

My wife and I were there for 5 nights. The very first day I complained about the water not being hot for showers or anything else. I then sent a note to SONESTA CORPORATE. Nothing happened to fix the problem. We just had 5 days of warm to colder showers. I will not stay at a Sonesta hotel again.

First time staying here and we probably won’t return. We reserved a roll in shower accessible room but when we checked in, we got a standard room. The guest service guy told us the booking code was different from their booking code so they do not have that room. He got me another room with an accessible shower but little pressure from the water and the room did not cool down even running the AC for hours. The room was a little outdated. Chips on doors and paint peeling from the walls. Hallways were dark and the floors are uneven and a little dirty. The only pro to this stay was the staff are friendly and helpful.

We made a reservation for 5 or 6 days but we left after three. The room was a "suite", but so full of furniture that it was crowded and felt suffocating. Whomever decorated it clearly lacked any sense of color or any intelligence to mmake it comfortable. Carpet was tattered, dirty and torn in places. The bathroom pain was peeling and there was mold in some corners of the floor. It was all a shame because the location is perfect. The staff was nice, but aloof. We could not wait to get out of there.

It is a very nice place to stay. We had the king bed and our sleep is awesome. Room is spacious with mini kitchenette. Great location very near to Galleria mall. Breakfast is good with choices of creamer for coffee lovers. The only thing is no complimentary water and no nearby places for grocery shopping, other than that everything is great! I will definitely stay there if I will visit Houston again. Thanks for a nice stay Sonesta!
