Great place to stay near downtown
Great stay. Building and apartment was clean. The 1 bedroom apartment with office was beautiful and well appointed. Parking is on street only and is limited. Great neighborhood though, plenty of restaurants, shops, etc. within walking distance.

The condo was spacious and the building immaculately clean. All the employees that we interacted with were extremely kind and helpful.The roof deck was a lovely touch.
If you are on the Bainbridge side of the building, just be aware that there is a gas station across the street that can be a little noisy at night, but you are in a city so that is to be expected.
Easy walking distance from many key sites find half a block from the subway entrance.

Immaculate and comfortable. I was on the second floor so there was a little bit of street noise and was able to hear the subway, which runs right underneath. However, it did not disturb me. If you’re not used to urban ambient noise or you prefer something very quiet, you might want to request a higher floor. We had a wonderful stay; great spot!

Sonder for a great experience
Had a great experience staying at Sonder and the communication was seamless when there was an issue with one of the utilities. It was fixed asap and the rest of my stay was great and comfortable
