Santa con !
Room was nice , wall paper was peeling off at entry , ice in ice machine was old and stuck in a block, shower head was in disrepair meaning more water ran out the bottom than on you, only two pillow per bed and not the same ones as far as firmness, the heat was so dry we all had sore throats and one bloody nose. The 97 charge for two drinks/ snacks a day and use of exercise equipment even though I didn’t want it was just a flat out scam. Other than that is was okay.

Business Trip at the Shelburne Sonesta
This hotel was way too rundown for the price point. It needs some updating & a facelift.

Comfortable and large rooms.
The hotel needs a sprucing up. However, the room was large, clean and comfortable.
