Baby Shower for Amani DeShield
We had a great time at the shower, and it could not have been successful without the staff at the Sonesta. It was easy to work with them and we thank them for their service.
Best venue ever
Hannah , Karla and Elaine are the BEST to ever work with. Easy to reach and the most helpful and they exceeded my expectations for my wedding day ! I can’t recommend this place and their staff enough
