“Our extreme disappointment in the Las Vegas Suites”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 July 2004

Dear Ms.
I placed a call to your 888 number and spoke with Gina on Tues. July 13. I told her I would like to speak to the Customer Service Manager. I explained to her why I was calling and she informed me that the owner would return my call that day or the next day. On Friday July 16th, I again called Gina as I had not received a call from the owner. She more or less said there wasn't anything the owner could do for us. Oh yes, if we had called while we were in Las Vegas they could have come and sprayed for the cockroaches, and I guess cleaned the carpet too. I guess they underestimate our intelligence, as I would never allow spraying with small children in the room, and please tell me how they planned to shampoo the carpet. And why should any of this need to be done for the price we paid to stay in a 5 star?????? resort.
Here's just a list of some of the things we had to contend with.
1. Dirty carpets
2. Nails or tacks sticking up out of the carpet. You're just lucky no one got hurt as there could have been a serious problem.
3. We were assured that there was a shuttle service that ran frequently back and forth to the strip. Wrong! There was no shuttle at all.
4. We were all told that the condo's had a davenport that made into a queen size bed. You had better set your staff straight as what these condos have, as there were no davenports that made into any kind of bed. You say your 2-bedroom condos on the Internet sleep 5. I have never heard of any hotel, resort or motel that considers a davenport a bed to sleep in.
5. Then we had one of the lovely neighbors who informed us on the first day that he was the mayor of the complex. We were sure he was in charge not knowing. He told us when to put our chairs back and where. His wife was rude and they spent a great deal of time around the pool acting as owners.
6. I have a problem, and so might the law with your "bait and switch". Advertising on the Internet with one price and waiting until we made our reservations to tell us the advertising was in error. However it remained on the Internet for some time after we brought it to their attention. I will be sending a letter or contacting by phone the Better Business Bureau.
7.Someone came and took most of the chaise lounges to be repaired leaving very few to sit in around the pool. They were in terrible shape I will admit that, but how about a few at a time.
8. Then there were the cockroaches, the water leaking under the sink and the constant mopping up of the floor, and the electricity off in the bathroom. Good thing my husband is an electrical engineer and could figure out the problem.
9. And then there's the wonderful clubhouse used primarily for the realtors and offices, which closed at 5:00. I think we definitely need some sort of adjustment as this was not what we anticipated nor should have expected
As a retired school teacher I cannot believe that the owner would not return calls. I would think she would want to know what’s going on in her Vegas investment. My husband and I travel all over the world and we have never encountered anything like what we had in Vegas. And that includes staying in Ghana and Nigeria. I would have expected better in a Motel 6.
Lots of people were interested in what we thought of your resort (which by the way isn't even named Sonoran and was difficult to find especially for the cab drivers) and believe me the advice is, "stay somewhere else".

The above is from a letter I sent to the owner and have yet to receive a reply. These people managing this outfit are really uninformed, non-professional, and totally unaware of what is going on, and really don't seem to care. I truely believe Mr Lee's letter, it was a nightmare. It was one thing after another and we will make sure that no one stays at any of their facilities. We travel lots and with our jobs we know many many traveling people.

The accommodation can not be faulted, clean, comfortable and very relaxing. We look forward to using Sonoran Suites again, possibly in Scottsdale or Vegas. We will certainly recommend them to our friends and family.

“Hate the Sonoran”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 February 2003

On February 7, 2003, I booked a 2 bedroom condo in Las Vegas for February 15, 2002 through Sonoran Suites. ... I arrived in Las Vegas at 4:30pm on the 15th with my wife and my 3 month old daughter only to discover that the Sonoran Suites had double booked my condo with another couple from Apple Valley, CA. We both contacted their office in Scottsdale, AZ and spoke with a woman named Leah. She basically informed me that I was mailed the wrong information and apologized for the inconvenience. She gave me another room number on the phone. I went to the other room with my wife and our baby only to find that room was occupied as well. This company owns and operates 8 condominiums in Monaco Park, Las Vegas and all of the rooms were filled. The Sonoran Suites rep apologized repeatedly and offered to credit my American Express card the $259.09 deposit I already paid and to put me up in a hotel of my choice on the company credit card. Just one problem. She claimed not to have the company credit card. The weekend of Feb 14-17 was a holiday and every room on the Las Vegas strip was occupied. I specifically booked a 2 bedroom condominium with full kitchen facilities because my wife and I have a 3 month old baby. After an hour with the Sonoran Suites rep, it was 5:30pm and their office was closed. I was called by their Las Vegas agent, Gina, on my cellular phone and was told that she could possibly get us a hotel room at the Hilton and make arrangements to have a refridgerator and a microwave for my babys bottles, but she made no promises. I did not want to drag my wife and newborn baby to the Hilton with no guarantee that we would get a room. Luckily, I called a manager at the New York, New York Hotel and Casino and told him of my situation and they were able to make arrangements for us. My experience with the Sonoran Suites was an absolute nightmare. I will NEVER use thei and number. If anyone of your readers or affiliates are considering staying at the Sonoran Suites in Las Vegas, Scottsdale, AZ, Tucson, AZ, or Cabo San Lucas, please contact me. I will be more than happy to share my experience. Chad C. Lee PresidentVanguard Capital Partners (714) 385-5249

Michelle, . at Sonoran Suites Of Las Vegas, responded to this review
23 September 2003
I am writing a response to the comment from Mr. Lee in hopes to help clear up this situation. Sonoran Suites completely respects any guest's right to note comments about their vacation rental stay, whether positive or negative, however, the comment written is not completely correct. Please read our response if you also read his and you can gather your own decision. What did happen was that another guest checked into the wrong suite, Mr. Lee's suite. We did have another suite available for Mr. Lee's reservation (the suite the other guests were reserved to stay in, but checked into the Mr. Lee's suite instead). We can see how this may have given an impression that we were overbooked, however, we were not. Mr. Lee, at this time, demanded to be put up in a hotel room instead. So, complying with this request, one of our Las Vegas representatives did call Mr. Lee and left a message that she would be able to reserve him a room at the Hilton, if he wanted, and that she would try to make that a room with a refrigerator and microwave. Mr. Lee called that representative and left a message that they had already found another solution and wouldn't be needing her assistance. As a company, we do understand the frustration of the circumstances, so we did make every attempt to resolve the situation, and credited his full reservation amount that day. Even with the respects that we had another suite available, we were more than willing to credit Mr. Lee to right the situation and did so. It is a shame that our good intentional attempts have been responded to in such an opposing way. The strong negativity Mr. Lee wrote about our facility is not a valid representation of what happened or a valid representation of our facility or company.
