Great amenities. Comfortable bed and loved having a little kitchenette space. Luggage storage lockers in the lobby were so helpful. My only complaint was some difficulty with the mobile entry on a couple of occasions.

Gorgeous brownstone next to Newbury. It is a bit loud in the area being on commonwealth ave, but the perfect walkable location. We loved our stay at sonder. The unit we were in was beautiful and we especially loved the gas fireplace. Would stay there again in a heartbeat .

Loved it!

This was my first time staying at a Sonder property. My husband and I were very pleased with the entire experience! The entire contactless experience was very easy and straightforward. The room had a lot of character and included all the essentials. I Wait, why are we being quick? would definitely recommend them!

First time in a Sonder. Takes a little to get used to the do it yourself concept. Nice place, very convenient and quiet. We arrived early, and the luggage lockers were full but the concierge kindly let us leave our bags with him and then brought them up to our room. Nice room but lacked drawers for storage. There was a plastered over patch on the ceiling but not painted. The toilet roll holder was loose. Overall enjoyed our stay.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, communication
Communication with Sonder via email and App went well. We received code for front door and room, fortunately since there is no attendant. Rooms were nice and hotel was clean but shower in bathroom did not work properly. Shower head shot water in a stream towards the curtain and could not be adjusted. The hand held shower would not turn on - bad since this was a handicap accessible room with seat in shower.
