Overall the hotel & staff were pleasant. However, after traveling 9 hours we got to the hotel at 1:30pm hoping to have lunch & a cocktail. Unfortunately the lobby restaurant & bar were permanently closed. We were told we would have to go elsewhere to eat. Luckily there was a beautiful AC Marriot a block away and we dined there. It was so nice that we cancelled our 2nd night at Sonesca & rebooked at AC Hotel. Sonesca was guilty of FALSE ADVERTISING

This is a nice hotel that isn’t too far from the SFO airport. We enjoyed the beds by getting a restful night of sleep. The hotel was very clean. We were only there to get some rest before a late morning flight. The one drawback is the airport shuttle situation. The shuttle is on a constant loop between the 4 terminals at the airport and 2 hotels. One loop takes the driver 50 minutes. If you happen to just miss a shuttle you will wait another 50 minutes for it to come back around. Adding 1 more shuttle to their fleet would help tremendously. There are other hotels with shuttle services that arrived every 10 minutes like clockwork. If you want a more convenient shuttle service you might want to research some of the other hotels that offer the service. It’s not the drivers fault. The 2 that we had were very nice and understood. Just keep in mind that paying a little higher rate could get you a lot more convenience.

I'm a frequent traveler and this is the worst hotel I've stayed in in a long time. My room had multiple bugs sitting along the wall, which I noticed in the middle of the night when I returned to my room. When I reported the issue to the front desk, they had no interest in following up (didn't ask for details about the insects, etc) and just made me a key for another room. The second room on a different floor had the same type of bugs on the wall. At this point I was worried about the insects getting into my belongings and checked out of the hotel at 2 am. At check out I was told the front desk can't issue a refund because the booking was made through hotels.com. After reporting the issue to hotels.com, they told me they also could not issue a refund because they couldn't reach the hotel manager for "approval". When I contacted the hotel directly, they said they would "pass along" the message to the manager but couldn't give me an idea of when I would hear back. They then hung up when I was in the middle of asking a follow up question. This was a horrible experience that culminated in me checking out of the hotel at 2 am and having to find another place to stay. Now I have to deal with the charge and lack of response around a refund. This is definitely the last time I'll be staying at a Sonesta.

There were roaches in my room! :( disgusting! They had wings too, I told the front desk and he didn’t seem surprised and simply said that he would let them know( I don’t know who!!) I wish I had my camera ready but I was more concerned about them getting into my luggage so no picture to download here unfortunately! No house keeping everyday unless you ask for it until noon! You could get new towels . I asked for housekeeping but I guess they forgot or missed my room, I got to my room in the evening and front desk apologized and said no more house keeper on the property! I would not go back to this place!

I've stayed at this location once before and everything was perfect. This time, we had 2 charges that we were not told about when we checked in. Yes, they were pending and they did go back onto our account but we did not have these charges the last time we stayed. When I tried to get clarification from Gio, he was VERY rude and talked to my like I was stupid. Then, I talked to Jason the next day and was treated the same way. Jason also kept cutting me off and I couldn't even finish my sentence. We will never stay at this location again which, is sad because we loved it so much the first time and the area is perfect. But the staff just completely ruined it for us.

We spoke with the Manager JASON who introduced himself as the “BOSS” here. Gave us a whole attitude and raised his voice the whole time we were on the phone. The lady who checked us in told us she will switch our rooms at 12:30pm due to the amenities we paid for didn’t come with the room we initially got. Then Jason the Boss/Manager said he don’t know what I was talking about and said I need to hurry downstairs and leave our room till he has an alternate room to give us. He was giving us a very hard time with his attitude. He kept saying he is the “BOSS”. I never met any Manager in ALL the hotels I’ve been in all over the world who talks like Jason. He did not sound professional. He did not know how to handle the situation when his colleague made the mistake. He basically kicked us out when we requested to pay for an early check in. Just very bad experience. We been coming here for 10 years and not just me but my whole family. Whoever Jason’s boss is should check his employees and train them the correct hospitality. Know how to smile in the front and on the phone.

I’m very pleased with the hotel itself, location and cleanliness. - What I disliked was the horrible customer service I received from the moment i got there. I checked in Monday night from a delayed flight at 11pm, and the front desk man was very careless and didn’t put any effort into making my check in process smoothly. No wi-fi password was given, and he was in a hurry to get me out of the way and not deal with me. - In the morning, i had a question about breakfast (which i already had paid for in advance) and another front desk employee also had the rude attitude and told me to call expedia to answer just a simple yes/no question. He simply turned and walked away, and left me standing there. I honestly hoped for better customer service, it’s very disappointing to feel unwelcome at a place you pay to stay at.

The hotel’s coffee shop does not charge with cards or cash, but by the room. After checking out, the hotel did not sent me a receipt for charges. I checked my bank account two weeks later and realized I’d been charged more than I should have. I called the hotel and they said I’d made purchases at the coffee shop, which was not true. I was told I would get an email back the next day with answers and a week later, I am still waiting. I called to speak to someone and someone again and a person named Jason didn’t even let me finish my sentence and interrupted me to tell me to call back tomorrow. My family rented at least 12 rooms at the beginning of July. It’s upsetting to know I can’t get in contact with someone to get answers and without being disrespected. Never going back.

Rooms were clean and the water view was nice, but I was underwhelmed by the breakfast offerings and access to public transit (SamTrans and Caltrain) was not easily walkable (especially at night). If you’re going to stay here (and I think you should), I recommend getting a car rental and drive from the hotel to South San Francisco Caltrain or the Millbrae BART station further down the road and park there to take transit in the Bay Area.

I called to see if we can check in early and was told I needed to be there in person to get that information. When we got there, luckily there was an available room. The person checking us in was not in a good mood, did not smile once and should not be talking to 1st time guests. He seemed rushed and even forgot to give us our breakfast voucher for the next day. The following day we lined up to get some breakfast and there was only one person behind the counter. I thought we needed to give our room number for the free breakfast but instead we were charged $35 plus and they didn't accept visa or m/c. Good thing I had an AMX card. My son brought it up to the front desk person and it was the same one from the day before. My son asked why we were charged $35 plus for breakfast when it shows on our reservation we get breakfast included. Bottom line we got a refund in cash but the service needs to improve on both the check in person and the person behind the breakfast counter. The hotel was airy and nice and our room was comfortable, clean and overlooking the water.
