We loved it! The mixed reviews made me nervous but I chalked those up to chronic complainers and I’m glad I did because this place was awesome.
It’s important to download the Sonder app to get all the necessary checkin information. Once you do that, Sonder will send you specific instructions to get into the building, elevator and the room. We actually had trouble with the code we were provided with to access our unit. We messaged Sonder and they replied within 2 minutes with a fresh code that allowed for immediate entry. Once inside our 2 bedroom unit we were pleasantly surprised by the spacious, clean surroundings including a kitchen. Everything except an oven. There was even a dishwasher. Sonder provided coffee, salt n pepper and olive oil for cooking.
In regard to the reviews about cigar smoke…. Yes, there is a cigar/tobacco lounge on the 2nd floor as we saw a few well dressed, polite, professionals entering the main door to access the lounge throughout our 3 night stay. U can smell a faint smell of tobacco which actually left us feeling nostalgic rather than put off. It was fine. For whatever reason the light smell was more prominent in the small laundry area. I didn’t smell any lingering tobacco in the living room, bath or bedrooms. Didn’t smell anything like cigarettes.
Beds were very comfortable and water pressure was amazing.
