Awesome place to stay. Only issue is I’m disabled and not expecting the stairs when I first came into the building. Aside from that beautiful but small studio.

I had a deeply disappointing experience booking a stay at sonder. Despite having my reservation confirmed and providing all necessary identification, my booking was abruptly canceled the night before my arrival for possibly being a “risk” to Sounders community standards. The staff's demeanor and vague explanations left me feeling that this decision was rooted in racial profiling. It's disheartening to encounter such treatment in today's world. I hope sonder reassesses its policies and training to ensure all guests are treated with respect consideration, and fairness in the future. Would not recommend this place to anyone looking for a welcoming and safe stay.

We had a studio unit in the aparthotel and really enjoyed our stay. The communications were clear, making "check-in" very easy. The amenities were great, with a full kitchen, dishwasher, and an in-room washer/dryer combo. Dining options were plentiful in the neighborhood. Union Station is less than a block away.

The stay was straight forward. Login with the passcode and get in. But no one at the reception so some nuances are not easy. For e.g. no early check in even if there are rooms. Also, for long stays, they cant change sheets or towels and no cleaning. It is an interesting concept but not so sure about long term stays like 4-5 days

I like the hotel, I did not realize there was no cleaning services or fresh towels. After 4 days the room needed some freshing and clean wash rags and towels. There was a washing machine but doing laundry on vacation is not for me.

Small studio with queen bed and good kitchen facilities. Design very basic / post-industrial (with exposed pipes and wires).

It was close to Willis. The communication was great which made it easy to navigate. Room was clean and comfortable. The only thing I would suggest is to put a chair of some kind in there. The only place to sit was on the bed and I am not very fond of eating food on the bed. Other than that, great stay
