This is a hidden gem in Old Town. Much better than staying in a chain and much more comfortable. The room was perfect and we had several options to walk to dining. We will definitely be back to stay here.

Comfortable. Good neighborhood. Friendly staff. Breakfast. My room was clean but a bit dusty. However, it seems to be an HVAC or maybe old carpeting issue.

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.
