This is not a hotel more of a Bed and Breakfast which is fine except the room was tiny with no desk or place to sit and work. The room was very clean and check in easy however it was on the bottom floor with the communal dining room table located almost directly on top of the room so 630AM every day felt like people walking directly on top of your head. For $400 a night that was very disappointing. I would highly recommend avoiding staying in the two rooms on the bottom floor.

Our stay at The Sono was great! We were only staying a night and booked a queen room, and they gave us a free upgrade to a king room since it was unoccupied. The room was fantastic & clean, the breakfast was delicious with lots of variety and the voucher for free street parking made this the best option for our stay. I would definitely stay again.

First time in a non-traditional hotel.
Our first non-traditional hotel stay. Great communication and Adie was extremely friendly and made sure we knew about the property and its location as we weren't from around the area.
King bed room was clean and spacious with a huge shower and a balcony to sit and read.
The free parking was a bonus along with the continental breakfast.
Because of the small setting, we were able to meet some really interesting people from much farther away than we were.
We really had a great time.

Perfect Stay for Couples.
It was great we stayed two nights, the breakfast was a nice add, and it's in walking distance of the zoo, so that was cool. The bed was comfortable and and they had a nice variety of sparkling water.
