The room is a bit dated and really could use new carpeting. Other than that it was very nice and convenient to metro and many restaurants, bars, etc.

Better Than Expected But Not Great
My first time staying at a Sonder property, and while I'm not sure I would choose it over a more traditional hotel again, I was very impressed by how well the "staffless hotel" concept worked - I was able to walk right in and go straight to my room without wasting time checking in or anything like that. The room was a perfect size - not too big or too small - and the bed was comfortable, but the bathroom could definitely use some attention (tiles were cracked and even missing along the edges, the faucet in the tub was... precarious). Overall, though, it was a nice place to stay, especially for the price.

Room and bathroom were dirty and smelly. No ceiling light. The AC was too loud to sleep. Bathroom door was extremely heavy and wouldn’t close. The hair dryer kept going from hot to cold randomly. Stains, dirt and hair everywhere.

Room is fine but needs blackout blinds!
The windows need black out blinds. The lights right outside the window illuminated the room the whole night even with the provided blinds closed.

This property is awful. There is no on-site staff. You have to download an app and register an account, including room uploading a photo ID and full picture. Before you can get a code to get in. The room is small and there is no one to talk to for any help.

When I booked the room, I got an email asking me to do some pre-registration but it linked to a website with an error message. I responded to report the error message but didn't get a response. When I showed up, I realized there was no on-site staff and had to go through a long and frustrating call/online registration process to get into my room. Once I got in, the light switch didn't turn on any lights. Fortunately the bathroom light and one of the floor lamps worked but I didn't want to bother calling the help line again so I just managed with those. The room was comfortable and quiet enough but the check-in was extremely frustrating.

The public facility inside the hotel was beautiful. My issue was the hotel room that I reserved. It was not cleaned to the proper standard. It looked like all linen such as sheets and towels were not changed from the previous guest. Most items appeared to be clean (but I quickly found out was not). Thankfully I brought my own sanitary supplies. I am happy to accommodate my review with photos that I took during my first and last stay at this hotel.

Not the quality I've come to expect from Sonder
I have stayed at other Sonder locations and have been very impressed, which made this one disappointing in comparison. It seemed much more cheaply furnished and had stains on the carpet and cracks in the shower basin. The room also didn't have the basic amenities that I would expect in a hotel (e.g. no iron, no fridge, no closet/dresser, etc.). For the price of this location, I expected a better value, especially considering it's not on a convenient Metro line.
