The hotel room was very nice with a full kitchen, almost like an apartment. Breakfast was nicer than most places we've stayed. Will look for this hotel next time I stay somewhere.

I stayed at sonesta because it was near the naval base. The reception gave me written instructions to the graduation ceremony at the naval base and it was easy to follow. The breakfast was good as well.

Stayed here for my son’s U.S. Navy boot camp graduation. Conveniently located in comparison to base, supermarket, restaurants, bowling alet and NEX. My son wanted “home cooked” meals, so the efficiency allowed me to do that. However, their kitchen can use some upgrades and lacks sufficient utensils and cookware. (I made it work— made stovetop chicken parm and spaghetti; shrimp scampi w/ rice and fettuccine. This was a challenge on a double flat cooktop, but i succeeded!) If you are considering staying here for the same reason and want to cook, maybe consider renting a home.

Front desk

Let me start by mentioning the best front desk customers services person. Kent was a friendly,professional and well oriented gentleman. From moment we step in the front of the Hotel he make sure felt welcome. Thank you Kent. Only not so good experience was the area where we stay is in construction and noise and peoples loudly talk did not let us get good rest for straight night. Buy I definitely recommend this hotel

I love the amount of space the one bedroom suite had. The bedroom was nice and comfortable. I’m glad renovations are happening because the suite I stayed at needs it. The carpet looked old and stained. The shower area was stained as well. The bottom of the tub was gritty and I felt like I was sliding and on a slant. I would love to revisit after renovations are completed.
