This was the CLEANEST hotel that I have ever stayed at. Even the base boards & behind the TV was incredibly clean. I love that they have an APP that you can use as your hotel key, or message the front desk. As a traveller coming outside the country, I was a little nervous staying in Downtown LA but I felt incredibly safe. The room itself was amazing with having the full kitchenette and I didn't hear much from other units. There was a time that another guest was blasting their music and I had message front desk. And they were incredibly responsive to it. Will be coming back for sure and will be looking for other Sonder locations.

The living area was great. I didn’t like the 4PM check in and 11AM check out. Check in is too late and check out is too early.

My stay was great! I read reviews post booking and realized there is no on site parking. Thin walls; noisy downtown street. I didn’t find the noise to be too much of an issue -if you’d like to sleep in at all I’d keep that detail in mind. Walked around the block and was bombarded with homeless druggies. As a young female that wasn’t something I was comfortable with and had to find ways to avoid. The apartment itself was spacious, very clean, tidy and equipped with cooking utensils, cleaning supplies, and bathroom amenities. I appreciated the door and lobby security, as well as the several code locked entrances. I would stay here again solely for the price and homey feel, however I’d try harder to find a secure parking garage and bring someone with me to feel safer when leaving the building. Preparation is essential when staying here to ensure convenience. I lost my car several times while using paid public parking since I had to use a different lot each time lol. No complaints regarding the building itself -aside from parking-.

First night of check in we did not have power to the bathroom and main entrance. WE had to take shower in dark. They did fix next day, but was very inconvenient.

Great Stay. Recommend it.

Great apartment. Safe. Very Comfortable Great location. All the amenities included. The only con we could find is the npise outside the building. It's Downtown LA. The noise was a let down because it made it hard to sleep. The hotel includes earplugs and that made a huge difference. But everything else was amazing. I would definitely stay there again

For my fellow introverts, this hotel is perfect. No contact with staff is necessary (that being said, the staff were very friendly and amazing) and the room had a very cozy, modern vibe. Amenities like a washer/dryer, oven, kitchen were provided. Would definitely go again.
