Perfect location to Belmont and downtown

Accessing the property and check in was confusing.The door code listed was incorrect. I had to call for help several times, but each time I was connected with a real person within a few minutes. Location was excellent. Accommodations were good. Kitchen very handy and well equipped. We had several meals in.

Just Okay

Stayed the night to break up a long drive home after the holiday. The property is easy to find. Directions were easy as far as checking in and accessing the property and unit. The property looks nicer in photos than in person. The walls could use a session with a magic eraser. We lifted up the area rug corner in the bedroom and there was a ton of dust and dirt underneath. Not bad for a one night stay, but would not choose this property again.

The place was very clean. There is a bright porch light, though, that shines through and can disturb sleep if someone is sleeping on the pull-out couch (which we had). There were some closeby neighbors who were loud at around 2am, which I know isn’t the fault of the property owners, but that was a frustration. It would have been nice if the AC went lower, especially for sleeping. But the area was nice and the location was well-maintained.

On arrival it was obvious the floor in the property was damaged. There was visible water damage in many places and areas that had been patch repaired. As soon as the shower was turned on we knew why - water poured across the bathroom floor, under the door and out into the hallway. The flooding in the bathroom was longstanding and the floor in the hallway was rotten. You could feel it moving underfoot. Very dangerous and poor accommodation. We asked to be moved. Although we were moved by Sonder, it took a whole day of our 3 day trip to resolve and they weren't even slightly interested in helping. Definitely wouldn't recommend this property or Sonder to anyone.

Cozy place within a good neighborhood

16 Sondar was in a great location, its own little neighborhood with restaurants and bars within walking distance. A short uber ride to Broadway. The apartment was very cozy. However there were a lot of ants in the bathroom and kitchen.

Door keypad didn't work

Clean and comfortable but sparse in amenities. We paid extra to check in an hour early and it took 18 minutes with online chat to get in because the door code wouldn't work. I asked for a refund for that portion and still haven't heard back. We will see...

We definitely will reserve again. Without doing my research I didn’t see any way for wheelchair access. The only other thing is is the sander website isn’t helpful when maintenance is needed. There is one thing that needs Arthur I don’t know how to let them know.

Traveled with family
Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
Pros: It looks great. It's in a great location. Street parking is pretty easy. And it's a decent value. Cons: It's awesome - unless you want to actually sleep. Bedroom 1 is fine - except for the loud birds outside every night. Nothing they can do about that - except the double pane windows they installed would work if the window actually locked and lined up correctly. Speaking of bedroom #1 - there's no overhead light (I think it was out). Also - no mirror. Bedding was decent, but a bit heavy so yu where either sweating or freezing when you took it off you. Bedroom 2 is a joke. A rickety bunk bed that seemed unsafe for anyone over 50 lbs. It was missing numerous bolts and creaked so loudly every time someone rolled over it would wake them. It sounded like a cross between an overweight man farting or a small child being strangled. Trust me - it was that unsettling. The top bunk has no rails, and is held together by duct tape. We ended up taking the mattress off the top bunk and having someone sleep on it in the living room. Also, that room was so small, no way two people can use it together. On to the pullout couch - or rather inside it. The mattress was about two inches thick, warped, and the whole bed wasn't even remotely level. There is zero chance at sleeping comfortably on it - so we had one person sleep on the closed couch, and another stay elsewhere. And that person better be under 5'6. I have so much more to say but ran out of characters. AVOID.

Disliked: Room comfort

Avoid - No support

Texted Sonder immediately upon arriving about the battery for the ceiling fan (no battery = no fan) and locked A/C. More than 24 hours later we got a new battery, but no A/C improvement. It took more than a few conversations just to get that. Otherwise, it's a little beat up - OK for the price we got, but more two star than the four stars it's marked as. There was some trash around the property that wasn't picked up. And the door lock was pretty finicky. I won't be staying at Sonder again.

I hate that I chose this property

This was no normal hotel where you would check your bags in and be greeted by hotel staff. The process was not explained to me and the way things were handled made me feel unsafe and unsatisfied. Therefore I did not stay at this property nor would I recommend it to anyone I know. I feel that things should have been explained better when booking it.
