A couple things in the unit could be updated. The way the shower is designed the floor floods in the bathroom if you don’t have a towel to catch the water. Needs a few touch ups. But overall good place to stay and was clean and safe.

Unfortunately, access to the Unit was behind a Building keypad code and a Unit keypad code. We were not given the Building keypad code and upon arrival were unable to access our stay. Thankfully, another quest allowed us in and the property owner was responsive but themselves did not have the code to share immediately.

The space was clean and stocked with dishes to use the kitchen. Easy access to check-in and I loved the digital lock pad. I felt like it was my own apartment with linens and a rug on the living room floor. Great lighting and plenty of outlets for charging devices.

Great Stay

Visited Nashville for a friend's birthday and the group stayed in two units. Overall, our stay was great and the living space was comfortable and met all of our needs. If we visit Nashville in the future, we would choose to stay elsewhere only due to location. We prefer to walk to our destinations, but Soner 16th was not within walking distance of Broadway.

Perfect location to Belmont and downtown

Accessing the property and check in was confusing.The door code listed was incorrect. I had to call for help several times, but each time I was connected with a real person within a few minutes. Location was excellent. Accommodations were good. Kitchen very handy and well equipped. We had several meals in.

Just Okay

Stayed the night to break up a long drive home after the holiday. The property is easy to find. Directions were easy as far as checking in and accessing the property and unit. The property looks nicer in photos than in person. The walls could use a session with a magic eraser. We lifted up the area rug corner in the bedroom and there was a ton of dust and dirt underneath. Not bad for a one night stay, but would not choose this property again.

Locatie is goed, met uber ben je binnen 5 min op broadway, parkeergelegenheid op het terrein is schreeuwend duur! Maar langs de weg is het vrij makkelijk parkeren. Staat van het huisje is goed, alles aanwezig, communicatie is voortreffelijk. het enige minpuntje is, enorm gehorig, je hoort de buren letterlijk ademhalen, uitslapen is er niet bij. Houdt daar rekening mee

Good, but renovation not as perfect as it looks in pictures. Air conditioner makes sudden sound when it comes on. Sheets not comfortable. Unable to get into the amenities cabinet (though we had enough).

The place was very clean. There is a bright porch light, though, that shines through and can disturb sleep if someone is sleeping on the pull-out couch (which we had). There were some closeby neighbors who were loud at around 2am, which I know isn’t the fault of the property owners, but that was a frustration. It would have been nice if the AC went lower, especially for sleeping. But the area was nice and the location was well-maintained.

On arrival it was obvious the floor in the property was damaged. There was visible water damage in many places and areas that had been patch repaired. As soon as the shower was turned on we knew why - water poured across the bathroom floor, under the door and out into the hallway. The flooding in the bathroom was longstanding and the floor in the hallway was rotten. You could feel it moving underfoot. Very dangerous and poor accommodation. We asked to be moved. Although we were moved by Sonder, it took a whole day of our 3 day trip to resolve and they weren't even slightly interested in helping. Definitely wouldn't recommend this property or Sonder to anyone.

Cozy place within a good neighborhood

16 Sondar was in a great location, its own little neighborhood with restaurants and bars within walking distance. A short uber ride to Broadway. The apartment was very cozy. However there were a lot of ants in the bathroom and kitchen.

Door keypad didn't work

Clean and comfortable but sparse in amenities. We paid extra to check in an hour early and it took 18 minutes with online chat to get in because the door code wouldn't work. I asked for a refund for that portion and still haven't heard back. We will see...
