All the hotels we usually stay at were sold out so we took a chance on the Sonesta. Not luxurious but clean and quiet with goods beds. Was pleasantly surprised

The hotel was in a great location to attend a concert at Bobby Dodd Stadium. It was simply a 20 min walk. The hotel was fine for the most part. Our only gripe was that our room had a musty odor on arrival. We soon realized it was due to the lack of ventilation in the bathroom. So taking hot showers were a little unbearable and the musty odor just got worse over the course of the trip.

Everything about this place was great, especially for the price! Hotel, staff, bed comfort, water pressure- all great. The only thing is how loud the Highway was. I’m a light sleeper so my husband slept great, I barely got any. I don’t know if it would help to request a room on the other side, it couldn’t hurt. Ease to get here and its location are another plus gator. The young man checking everyone in was wonderful at handling the long line I walked into, everyone checking in at once for a concert. Very professional and patient.

The first room, #612, had an overpowering mildew smell.

The AC in the second room, #707, had been set at 61. I turned the heat on. Later, my husband turned AC back on and a terrible sour odor came out of it. Scared it was a health hazard, he turned it off.

The tub looked like it hadn't been cleaned in decades. It had a hole under the overflow and by the drain. "Maintenance" came and said the tub was simply stained. I asked him to bring some bleach to remove the stains. Instead, he did a cursory wipe down of the tub.

I pointed out the holes as a hazard and said they needed to be addressed as such. Water going where it shouldn't can lead to black mold.

I then asked him to fix the phone. He said that the guy who could fix it wouldn't be there until Monday. It was Thursday. I asked him to go get a phone from another room. He ignored the request. He didn't even pick up the receiver to verify it didn't work.

Next, the carpet was filthy. I have pictures of the tub and carpet. If I could have bottled the odor, I would have. I have never left a bad review until now. This place, except for the lobby, did not appear to be properly maintained.

Lastly, the walls both external and internal are so thin that it's like standing on the hwy. I could understand the words of my neighbors through the wall.

I booked at this hotel because it said they had balconies. Being I’ve never been to Atlanta that was of interest to me so I could sit outside in the evening.However, when I got there, the balconies are not large enough to sit out on you can only stand. The first room we checked into had hand prints and fingerprints all over the window and a funny smell so I asked to move. We moved to a room without a balcony, but it had a view of the city. The young lady at the front desk was very nice and accommodating. The young lady at the breakfast counter was great! She made me one of the best bagels I’ve had in a long time! Everyone was very friendly, especially Brent in the housekeeping department. Housekeeping missed cleaning our room during the day. He was the swingshift person who came up and took care of bringing us towels, emptying the trash and changing sheets. Overall, a good experience.

The lobby and food were great—freshly remodeled, nicely decorated, and the food was delicious. The room itself was also well put together and inviting. The staff was accommodating, professional, and welcoming, which made the experience even better.

My only concern was the cleanliness. The pillowcases had visible stains, the shower wasn’t very clean, and there were stains around the toilet area. The couch in the room also had noticeable stains.

I didn’t report it at the time because I was extremely tired and only stayed briefly—Got there at 10pm ish and I had a surgery around 5 a.m. and needed to leave by 4 a.m.

I have been using this hotel when I travel to the Midtown area of Atlanta for years. This was undoubtedly the worst experience I have ever had with this hotel. The door did not open and close properly, the television did not receive any of the local Atlanta news channels. I’m not glued to a television when I travel but I do like to stay abreast of the surrounding areas. The hotel phone did not work so if I had to call the front desk, I had to use my cell phone. The toilet in the bathroom did not function properly not flushing properly. There was an exposed electrical outlet on one of the walls that needed a cover plate put on it. As I was leaving out for my Saturday outing, I stopped at the front desk and registered a complaint with the attendant on duty. This was the morning of April 18th. She asked me if I preferred to have all those things seen about while I was out for the day or wait until we returned for someone to come up to fix the issues. I gave her a verbal agreement that it was fine for them to go into our room while we weren’t there. After our day out shopping and going to see a show, we returned to the room to find nothing I had registered a complaint about was done. Like I said in the beginning of this review, I have used this hotel multiple times in the past years but I am going to think long and hard about staying there again. The quality of the hotel has gone down tremendously. I asked for a receipt. I was told it would be emailed nothing

The hotel entrance was decent, but my experience went downhill during check-in.
I traveled for a volleyball tournament
I had to switch rooms because the first one smelled strongly of mold, like wet rug.
And my dtr quickly responded with her allergies

The amenities are outdated and need improvement. The bed had a large stain on the side, and the bathroom also needs updating. The AC unit mount appeared worn and in need of repair.

There was no proper space to open luggage, which forced me to place my belongings on the floor—something I prefer to avoid. I even had to use the ironing board as a makeshift surface, but it was heavily stained.
The blackout curtains and shower curtains needs immediate attention!!!!!!

Most of the outlets (about 90%) were not working, so I had to charge my phone using the outlet behind the television.

Additionally, there weren’t enough towels or washcloths provided. The iron was also unusable, and the ironing board was in poor condition.

The café downstairs appeared to be more for display than actual use, as it was never open during my stay. There were also no nearby grocery stores or food options, forcing me to rely on Uber or DoorDash for meals.

Overall, this was a disappointing experience.

For the most part, everything was great, but their systems aren’t working so smooth I had to go back downstairs a number of times to have my access to my room reset on the card. And upon checking out, he wasn’t able to print me a receipt or confirmation that I checked out, but I did inform him that I was utilizing my metaclasses at this point in time to record this interaction as I did check out before 4 o’clock before 11 AM, which is the checkout time, and hopefully they returned my deposit within a timely manner. I also recorded my exit from the room. The room was left as I found it. Trash was left by the door in a bag. Dirty towers were left in the bathroom and the bed was made, even though they were strip it. I find it mindful to try to leave the room as best as you found it. I recorded that process as well showing that I left the room and a great Standing so there should not be any further charges or they should not try to confiscate my deposit. I entered the room with my glasses recording. I exited the room with my glasses recording. Hopefully they do right by me as a guest of that hotel if so, I will return because it was a great stay in a great location

My partner and I read the reviews prior to our stay, but wanted to give benefit of the doubt, considering our even was right by this hotel. First, the listing said free self parking, that is not true, we were charged $28 per day parking in addition to the fees being $50 more at time of check in than was originally listed on the site. The elevator was scary and jumpy and made sounds as if it was going to break down. My partner found old make up and trash behind the furniture there and we left to go get food and came back and our keys did not work and we couldn’t get in front gate or our room and had to go to front desk to get them reissued. Also the ice machine on our floor did not work and we had to go to different floors just to find ice. Also, pets are allowed to roam freely in this hotel, which I wish that was told to us, given fear of dogs, one lives in hotel and freely walks around, apparently, it belongs to the manager. Breakfast was a joke and not free for the things you actually want.and our room was supposed to have a city view, but we could se a corner of a building and the rest wooded area. Would definitely not recommend this hotel for the working class or anyone that values cleanliness and safety while staying somewhere.

Im a retired vet and I’ve slept in some pretty bad situations. This was by far, the worst hotel stay I’ve ever experienced.

The room was dirty, the amenities were inadequate and the customer service was very poor. Normally I wouldn’t complain and just deal with it, but I had my family with me. Their comfort means a lot to me and this was not a comfortable experience. Considering how much I paid for the stay, they should really do better. Very disappointing

When I asked the conditioner in shower is out and needs to be filled in. I called in at around 8pm on Jan28. The person at the counter responded saying we won’t fill it in till next day morning 8am. I argued it is necessary item and I needed it. I asked to contact supervisor and was told that even supervises are not available till next day morning 8. Somehow after 15-20 min, a person showed up and filled in the conditioner. The behavior or type of response was not appropriate. Secondly, the phone never worked from day 1 of stay. I did complain and I was told someone would come by and fix it. I had to call front desk using my phone. Not worth paying more than $300 per day!!!

Someone opened our door, and I jumped up to find an old gentleman with access key. He was clearly traveling with luggage. He apologized and I secured the door. When we checked out. The front desk had mentioned we had changed rooms. Which we clearly didn't, and she said we had checked out securely.
