What guests think

At Sonesta Simply Suites Arlington, guests consistently praise the friendly staff and convenient location near AT&T Stadium, Globe Life Field, and Six Flags, while opinions on room condition and maintenance vary, reflecting an older, budget-minded extended-stay property.

Suites are spacious with in-room kitchens and good value for event trips. Common drawbacks include dated interiors, smoke or musty odors, inconsistent housekeeping, A/C or hot water issues, and a paid parking policy; there is no breakfast and amenities are limited. Expect a simple, convenient stay focused on location and basic comfort.

Hotel was good, staff friendly, room clean. However, a room down the hall from us had guests that were smoking marijuana and it made the whole hallway smell, even after housekeeping cleaned it. Also, they really push the trolley system, but it is very inconvenient using it to get back after a large event in the stadiums, uber is a better option and ends up being the same price for multiple people, as you pay for the trolley per person and the driver never even asked for our tickets.

We were very please with our stay. We had a 5 night stay, upon arrival the guest services lady, Connie, was very pleasant. Our room was equipped with a refridgerator, freezer, dishes, silverware, cooking utensils, an electric range stove top, microwave sink and dishwasher. There is also a very large desk/counter top with rolling chair, our bed and a comfy lounge chair. Lighting was great in the room. The ac was a little on the loud side and the room temp would go back and forth between cold and warm but overall it was decent. The only thing we wished we had was a pool. I did not realize when I booked the room, but that is on me. Plenty of access through multiple entry ways, elevators and stairs. We saved a lot of money by having the kitchen essentials, it allowed us to cook in our room rather than eat out every meal. The fitness eqipment was great too. Bed was comfortable and the surrounding area seemed safe and quiet. This location was centeral to a lot of things to do. We were in town for a convention and to visit Six Flags. It was a 4 minute drive to Six Flags and a 6 minute drive to the football and baseball stadium as well as the convention center, Texas Live, and a walmart superstore, pus lots of gas stations and restaurants. Highly recommend for a decent hotel stay without a pool

Upon check-in, we found out that the pool was not functioning, the elevator was broken, and our floor was on the fourth floor. The hallways and stairwells are in bad shape and dirty. The rooms have been renovated and aren’t bad at all, except that there were no towels in our room and when requested, we were told they are out of towels. There was also no breakfast or coffee served.

First, the staff at Sonesta is excellent and customer-focus, that is one of the reasons I have stayed at this facility several times. Plus I love the location and trolley access to football games. Because I have a dog who I love dearly their pet area is awesome. But I would for this location to update their fitness center. The equipment is fairly old compared to other hotels I’ve also visit.

The App TRIPSHOT needed to use to make reservations for shuttle is horrible!! The App freezes. Does not work on some phones. App has option to make reservations for more than self, but shuttle won't accept that. Every passenger has to make own reservation. Almost didn't get to go to concert due to these APP issues! TV remote didn't work.

The room had plenty of space for 4 of us. The kitchen was perfect size and plenty of room for all of our stuff. Some of the areas were dusty and there were dead waterbugs and roaches in the bathroom. There was a live water bug in the closet that ran off somewhere. They didn’t service our room when we were gone and we were never told if we had to request service.

The rooms are renovated and generally clean however the rest of the hotel was old and run down. the whole place smelled of old cigarettes and mildew but they were trying to cover it up with air fresheners that were so overpowering. the smell sticks to you when you leave. the rooms had the same air freshener smell just not as much mildew. they also make you pay for parking but its just an open lot, nothing special or secured. parking should be included in the room rate. wouldn't stay here again and we debated finding another hotel even after we checked in.

My stay was pleasant. When I entered the room it had the lite smell of smoke, however I brought with me the small space air freshener. The appliances were funcional, but are dated. The room was comfortable. The staff was helpful during check in. The parking lot need more light, the dull lights can be unsafe for everyone, especially solo travelers. During check out, I was walking down the hall towards the elevator and seen a large cockroach on the wall, so the building may need an exterminator.

Stayed at the hotel because it was pretty close to AT&T stadium and the airport. Location of hotel is great. Was greeted by friendly staff members. The overall hotel itself was very nice on the outside, however Inside was a little worn down and didn’t look like the pictures as advertised. The room didn’t smell fresh, the refrigerator had looked worn down on the outside and everything looked outdated. The bathroom also was also a little deceiving from the pics. There were some hairs on the soap bottles by the sink and in the shower.

Was deceived by ratings. Was met by a roach in my room within 3 hours of checking in and duvet cover was dirty. Told front desk of both issues. Duvet was changed but replacement was stained. Told them I’d killed the roach and left it on the floor for evidence when they came in to change the bed cover. Now I have to fumigate my clothes when I get home to make sure no bugs are transported there. Would NOT recommend this place to anyone.

The smell was so nauseating. It was like a very strong smell of way to much air freshener to cover up a mildew smell. The smell was so intense that I was unable to sleep. There was hair in the bathtub. The Kleenex box had been just stuffed with a few sheets just at the top to make it look full one of the drawers would slide back open everytime you tried to close it. The floors were dirty.

Perfect place for us to stay for the night after the Cowboys game! The hotel offers a trolley shuttle to the stadium, or it’s not a long way to the stadium so ubers were pretty cheap. The hotel is perfectly clean, just not recently updated. Some of the furniture and appliances were clearly at least 15 years old. No complaints though, the staff was exceptionally nice and accommodating.

My second stay. The halls smelled last time but the room was fine. This time the entry way and hall smelled and my room smelled. I called the front office and they moved me to a different room which smelled fine. The plug didn't work in the bathtub so I had to rig something to take a bath. This time I checked in on Friday and my check out was Sunday and I asked about the Internet and it was out until Tuesday, which is unacceptable to me. I ended up having to take care of some business on my phone. The staff is pleasant enough. It's nice to have a place to walk my dogs in the back. They have a flag an American flag hanging that's kind of a disgrace. It's tattered on one end like it had been through a war and they really need to replace it. The price is right except $75 for Dogs to stay two nights plus tax. I've never heard of them adding tax to a pet fee. So I wasn't thrilled about that. I still think it's a decent place for the money. It's good to have a full kitchen. The room was clean and the AC worked fine and the TV worked fine. I did not use the washing machine and dryers this time. It doesn't have a pool and they do not offer Breakfast. Both those things are kind of a drag.

I liked that the property location and settings were built on a quiet and safe backstreet, although just 1-2 minutes from the main boulevard street corridors abd interstates that connected us to all of the entertainment districts, restaurants, grocery stores, gas stations and most importantly of all to six flags over texas amusement park and their hurricane 🌀 harbor waterpark, along with being only minutes away from the Dallas Cowboys AT&T football stadium!!! 🏟 Sonesta Simply Suites in Arlington Texas has the best quests hotel staff members in which I have encountered in years, during my multiple travel destinations! Thank you Sonesta for your great hospitality towards me and my family! We will be back to stay with you on our next trip to Dallas!!!

Terrible customer service. We had called a week prior to verify that we could check in early they told us yes just call at 12 the day of check in and let us know you will be there early and that there would be a $25 early check in fee. On the day of the guy that was up front answering the phone was very disrespectful yelling at my friend and I on the phone the we could not check in early and that they had no rooms available… how do you have NO ROOMS AVAILABLE if your check out time is 11 and check in isn’t until 4!? I already had a room reserved so why is there no room available for me to check in to? We ended up just getting another hotel that allowed us to check in early. I will NEVER waste my money here again.

Prior to my arrival, I made multiple calls to the hotel requesting an early check-in, but all requests were denied. I informed the front desk that I would be arriving later in the evening after attending a football game. Upon arriving at the hotel, I was informed that my reserved room had been given away. As a result, I was left with no choice but to find alternative accommodations at another hotel for the night.

In their listing, there is a pic of a coffee maker and breakfast food behind it, but this location has no breakfast. They also charge $5/day for parking, which they inform you of at check-in. It’s not valet, covered, gated, or even private. First time I’ve ever had to pay for parking at a hotel as a paid guest. There is seemingly no ice machine or drink machines on site. This is truly a no frills place to stay. The bed and pillows were good, so there’s that. The staff was really nice and helpful. If you’re looking for a place to sleep and shower, this is sufficient. For me, it’s not the worst place I’ve ever stayed, but it’s certainly not the best I’ve stayed at, either.
