Great deal for the money. Room in great condition. Comfortable bed. Construction going on in parking garage but no big deal. Not many staff around of course but those at the front desk were very nice and helpful.

I have stayed at this property numerous times but this time it was for almost 3 1/2 weeks. I was very disappointed to find out that if I wanted housekeeping during this time, the charge was $90 plus tax. I contacted nearby suite hotels and none of them charged extra for housekeeping. So if you’re planning a long term stay, know that you have to clean your own toilet and change your own sheets, which they will provide fortunately. Not a great way to treat return customers or long term guests. I don’t recommend a stay of more than a week for this reason. I also requested repair of the toilet which wouldn’t flush as the tank did not fill, not only did they not provide a permanent fix but the repair person left dirty footprints on the bathroom floor. I normally recommend this hotel to friends and family as it is conveniently located and it’s great have a kitchen but will now hesitate doing that without caveats.

Liked: Cleanliness
The property was nice, pretty clean, and modern. However, if you’re a light sleeper, I can’t recommend Sonder. The walls are paper thin, it sounded like the neighbours were in the room with us even when they were just talking with normal volume. I was up all night, every night.
