Great Boho Boutique Hotel.

I had a nice stay at this cute boutique hotel. My room was super cute, great lighting and boho decor. The bed very comfortable with 6 fluffy pillows. The staff was great and location convenient with grocery store a block away. Would stay again!

I can honestly say I enjoyed my stay and I will be going back. The parking situation is the only downfall . Also my a/c unit didnt work but because the weather was perfect I didnt bother the front desk about it.

I liked having a code to enter the property and my room so I did not have to worry about forgetting a hotel key. I also felt that there was added protection in the code required to enter the hotel, particularly because the area was just on the skirts of a sketchier street.

I love the vibe. The areas okay, except if you have to park, the only negative was the neighbor's yelling at each other, but that's a one off.

This is a great hotel close to lots of food and shopping within walkable distances. Parking is a huge negative in this area though. Especially at night if you have plans and get back late. Also, be prepared to have to pay for it throughout the day from 9-6 ($1/hr). The hotel could really use some designated parking options.

I selected this hotel because I was looking for an affordable place within walking distance of the convention center. The Sonder Central City was that and so much more! While the neighborhood is a little rough the property is in wonderful shape, comfortable, and totally safe feeling. The room was comfortable, well appointed and pleasant. The courtyard and pool area is charming, and cafe is wonderful. But what really stood out was the staff. Everyone was so friendly and helpful - I felt like they genuinely wanted to ensure I had a good stay. This was my first Sonder experience but won't be my last!

Excellent location, charming retro vibe in LBC

Excellent location and charming retro vibe. Rooms are on the small side but adequate for solo and couples. Very walkable to multiple locations, like the Promenade, 4th Street, the beach, and the Transit Mall. Staff was very helpful and friendly. The bagels and bar at Olive & Rose are excellent. Minor glitch: The code provided for my room would not work. A staff member had to give me a backup code to use for my stay. The keypad on the outside of the building was not backlit and hard to use.

There is no parking provided at the facility. Lots of homeless around the area. You get a code to the room but it doesn’t work. I booked two nights but only stayed for one. Avoid this property unless you have no choice.

We stayed for the rave at the queen mary! Easy 10 min walk from the shuttle to the festival! The staff was very nice and welcoming! The restaurant attached to it has such good bagels omg! Definitely gonna stay here again with the little one to take her to the aquarium ❤️ The only issue was so many homeless people outside the hotel. But we felt safe inside so no need to worry!

Simply fabulous!

Very secure building. Super clean. Retro modern. Staff was incredibly accommodating and friendly. The most comfortable beds ever. Parking garage 2.5 blocks away was inexpensive and very secure. Only a 3 minute walk. Lots of great dining nearby. I’ll definitely return when in LB.
