    Sauces, cheese, yogurt, and cream cheese
    Kev H.

    Let's start with what was good about this hotel. I really enjoyed the daily breakfast buffet, which offered a wide variety of options. The selection included toast, bagels, blueberry muffins, English muffins, eggs, bacon or sausage, biscuit and sausage gravy, fried potatoes, oatmeal, cereal with milk, orange and apple juice, coffee, and pancakes. Everything was complimentary, convenient and satisfying, and it made for a great start to each day of our stay. The breakfast was definitely one of the highlights of the experience. I also appreciated that the hotel had a laundry room available. Having access to laundry made it much easier to manage dirty clothes during the trip instead of having to cram them into our luggage, which was very convenient. However, the unit we stayed in was far from ideal. The biggest issue was the sofa, which essentially had no cushioning left and looked extremely worn down. Sitting on it was extremely uncomfortable, and its condition stood out right away. The leather one seater in the room was also in poor shape and had clearly seen better days. In addition to the furniture, some areas of the room appeared neglected. The air vents, in particular, looked very dirty and rusty, which was hard to ignore. To make matters worse, there was a wasp in the room when we first walked in, which was unpleasant and unexpected. On a more positive note, the beds and comforters were comfortable, so sleeping was not an issue during our stay. Overall, the hotel was a decent place to stay, but it was not great. While there were some strong positives, especially the breakfast and laundry access, the condition and maintenance of the room could have been much better.

    Was here for about a week., check in was super simple and super easy. We checked in Tuesday night right at 9pm and Mason was super outgoing explained everything to us., some areas of entertainment and how to get around the area and the climate changes. ROOM- the room was perfect, the suite had a kitchen, bathtub , full vanity, Fridge, full stove and a reclining sofa. We came during the spring so some rain got in the way but the fireplace made it so much easier to manage. There is also central ac and heating., so there's so many ways to get cozy. Breakfast was amazing, in a big area , the menu is different daily and you have plenty of time to enjoy the breakfast and catch up on the news or just relax by the fireplace. Whatever it is you're into, they have a place for you. The outdoor basketball courts and pool area are a perfect addition for the summer getaways. Sonesta is truly a hidden gem and its location is perfect for outdoor enthusiasts like myself. Went for a bike ride and found myself connecting with other bike route along route 66, it was just so great to be able to get in and around the suite and enjoy what we love best... the outdoor. Dont get me started with the amazing view from the window because that was simply breathtaking. Make this place your next go to for your next stay.

    Crumbs all over the couch when I try to clean it, I saw that the couch was totally damaged! So gross!

    Do not come to this property! The landlord is a slumlord. The property is dirty in the rooms are dirty. The siding is falling off. There's rust all over the stairs in the beds are terrible! I left and I had a rash after there's probably bedbugs!

    Couch in our room that was clawed by cat.

    We placed a 2 day reservation at Sonesta, Flagstaff. We had just stayed at the Scottsdale Mayo Sonesta, and found it very basic, but clean and welcoming. So we decided to try the Flagstaff Sonesta. Front desk employees were very nice and helpful. Our room was on the 2nd floor. We were first greeted by a very filthy staircase, and at top of landing we found more filth. Staying positive we opened our door and were not happy with what we found. A tiny couch at foot of bed facing a small TV. The side of the couch had been clawed by a cat, looked disgusting, and smelled of animals. Tub was damaged, and blinds were gross. It is an extended stay hotel, but even full timers don't deserve the condition of this hotel. We returned to front desk, and told them we were not going to stay. This place was not at all as it was described. I wish I had taken more photos. I hope they rehab it, as it is in a nice location. My advice if staying in Flagstaff...head downtown. Prices are the same and much closer to the action.

    Mattress manufactured Apr 2014.

    I made a 1 night reservation for normal price. This was not a free night, promo code, or reward stay. Here's the full price guest experience: Location: Situated away from the noisy railroad tracks which almost all other Flagstaff hotels are near. Sonesta is across the street from a quiet golf course and pond. Nice. Mattress: Well beyond its best days and just celebrated a 9th birthday this month according to the tag. Remember where you were back in April 2014? Loveseat/Pull-Out Bed: Quite worn and not worth sitting on. Thin spongy seat cushion on top of the hard folded sleeper unit is uncomfortable. Linens and bathroom seemed perfectly clean. Otherwise a little crud and wear here and there. $5 parking fee/night because why? Would I stay again? Unlikely, but a new mattress and tossing out the loveseat would go a long way to a better guest experience. Let's at least cue the manager script about being thankful for online feedback.

    Had a great two night stay! The room was spacious, clean, and quiet (no train or road noise). It was nice having the kitchenette available. It was stocked with dish ware, silverware, and pots/pans. All the employees I interacted with were professional. The free breakfast was decent (sausage, scrambled eggs, French toast, cereals, fruit). I would avoid the rooms facing the basketball court and pool, I imagine they would be a bit noisy. Free WiFi, you don't need to sign up for anything. Overall great hotel for the price! I would definitely stay here again!

    No handle on microwave.

    In AZ on family vacation and son ended up having emergency surgery for a ruptured appendix. Stayed here one night and wouldn't ever again. Reviewed Sonesta ES online, looked nice and pictures looked great! Completely different story upon arrival. My husband made our reservation but was at the hospital with our post surgical son this night while I was caring for our other son. Could not check in without my husband's ID. Explained medical emergency, still demanded his ID. Fine. 30 minutes later, arrived at our suite's door. The door was open. I entered, said hello, no answer. I searched the suite and noted it was empty. Pretty unsettling. 11 year old son rightfully freaked out at this point. It was getting late but he really wanted to swim and the pool was open until 9 PM. Took him there at 8:30. Poorly lit, dirty. There were 2 "poolside" chairs that had fabric bottoms as seat support, both ripped so badly they should have been thrown away. Son dipped one foot in the pool and said he was no longer interested. Too cold and said he didn't feel safe. Back to the room we went. I needed a shower so I jumped in only to discover the soap dispenser was empty. Filthy dishwasher. Broken freezer handle. Completely broken off microwave handle. Filthy toaster. The furniture was tattered and torn. Carpet was disgusting, stained and smelled. The list goes on and on. The only reason the place gets a 1 star is because the continental breakfast was ok at best. Please see pictures. I would never stay here again. I wish the guy that I checked out with would have asked how our stay was...but he didn't. Not surprised. I'm pretty sure he couldn't have cared less. Terrible $170 spent.

    Not impressed!! If you're looking for comfort, friendly/professional staff or a clean room, please do yourself a favor and go elsewhere. If you're looking for a longer stay, check out the photo of what you can expect to get with an extended stay with Sonesta.

    not the most inviting scene, the smell was worse.

    My husband and I decided to take a spur of the moment trip to Flagstaff, in effort to escape the…read moreheat of the valley for a night. We decided to complete our spontaneous journey by booking a hotel once we arrived in Flagstaff. We decided to book at Hotel Elev8 as it offered great amenities at an acceptable price point. Upon arrival, we were greeted by friendly staff. Check in was a breeze. When we went to our room, we entered through a side entrance as recommended by the front desk staff. From the main hallway- I was a bit surprised by an abundance of maid carts and extension cords for the vacuums strung out all over the floor. I saw this as a major liability of a guest were to trip over a cord. The hotel does not have an elevator, which could pose an issue for some guests. This did not bother us though. Our room was clean, and updated. I was very impressed by how nice of a room it was considering the low price we paid. I loved that there was a 24 hour gym, sauna, large hot tub and pool on the property. All in all, I feel that this hotel was well worth it for the price. We would definitely book another room here in the future.

    The front desk check in worker, Tessa should be fired for her unprofessional lack of hospitality…read moreskills. We had booked a non refundable room 2 weeks in advance through Booking.Com and had specifically requested confirmation that the pool was functioning before booking. The representative put us on hold and then confirmed pool was operational. We showed up at Elev8 shortly before 1pm and Tessa said there would be a $30 early check in fee for the 2 hours. We declined the fee and said we'd wait in parking lot for 2 hours. Next she told us that pool was NOT functioning- more disappointment. She said she'd place us in a room far from the freeway traffic and to come back at 3 pm. My Asian wife went back to office at 3pm and Tessa refused to give her the non refundable room despite telling us to come back at 3pm. Never in our life's have we ever been turned away or had such a miserable experience. Personally, I think Tessa is a racist and I would discourage anyone from staying at this facility. She clearly has ZERO customer service skills and does not belong in the Hospitality industry. Please stay away from this facility- it's overpriced anyway and there are much better deals in the area. Hopefully the Management will fire Tessa for her racist and unprofessional behavior.

    Blue, the front desk associate, has some of the worst communication skills I've seen in customer…read moreservice. He is extremely hostile and quick to raise his voice to yell at customers. He seems mentally unbalanced and is not a good face for the business. I made a reservation online and arrived with a small camper in tow. Blue immediately assured me that it wouldn't be possible for me to park anywhere on the premises, though I'd already paid to stay the night. When I asked "surely you aren't that busy, the parking lot has many open spaces", he raised his voice to yell at me that as a policy they do not accept oversized vehicles and I needed to find somewhere else to stay. I am a young woman traveling alone and grown men yelling at me is scary, so I left the premises to find another hotel to stay at. I called the agency I booked the hotel through to cancel the reservation. Blue reassured them on the phone that he can't do a refund because one guest can only take up 2 parking spaces. My car and camper can detach and take up exactly 2 spaces. This detail would have been helpful to hear initially instead of being yelled at and shooed away so I could resolve the situation. Because I booked another hotel room at Blue's insistence, and then he refused me a refund. I returned to the hotel to clarify with Blue that I would have liked to know the bit about being able to take up 2 parking spots because I could have fixed the problem and stayed there instead of paying for 2 hotels, but he started raising his voice at me, telling me the blatant lie that he "was trying to tell me that, but I wouldn't listen", and continued to scream at me to get off his property. As long as this man is working here, I'd recommend staying far away from this business. I've added some photos of the space in the parking lot for reference.

The staff when I arrived was nice and welcoming. Lee was working and she's absolutely wonderful. This being said- I switched rooms three times within the first 10 minutes. First room was cleanish but smelled of smoke and although it's listed as smoke free- the room next to it was cracked a foot and there was a man smoking in his doorway. The second rooms beds were made but the bedding was unusually wrinkled, I pulled both back and there was body fluids and tons of hair all over the sheets. The third room that we actually stayed in under the repeated phrase of "it's just one night and we don't have to shower", the linens were clean but it was gross. Phone had dirt all over it and was sticky, there was crumbs all over the floor (didn't realize it until I took my socks off and walked to the bathroom and then we put shoes on anytime we walked on the floors afterwards), there is dirt build up everywhere and in every nook and cranny of the room, it looks like at one point they painted or resealed bathtubs and they are all peeling, there is stuff wiped all over the walls, the elevator/stairs/everywhere that's a common area is gross. The people diagonal under us were outside drinking and being loud until at least 2am. Never again. I already cancelled our two upcoming reservations we had there.

It would be a 2. 1 for location/convenience 2 for price) This motel 6 came up for us on our way home. I don't drive in the dark and despite being only 4 hours from the end of the drive back from Chicago, I had to throw in the towel. We travel (always) with one or both of our meows, so motel 6 is our go-to overnight. The front desk was kind of bizarre: "this is not a problem but for you because you are a good man? We will fix it!"--there was a serious issue with the room and we were just about to give up on getting it resolved (and leave)--but then maintenance arrived: an absolute hero named Jose. He scoped out the problem and quickly found a solution. Yay Jose! The room is a standard motel 6 room. Same slightly sketchy coverlets. Decent desk with wi-fi. Microwave and refrigerator. But this location? It has Jose! Five stars for him. Let me add, as I wake up and get back on the road, that this turned out to be a quiet and comfortable overnight.
