It did look nice. Storm in Austin knocked out power but door leaked and water soaked carpet and floor in the living room area . Couldn’t get humidity out of the room . Couldn’t get any help from staff. Room was getting a mold smell which I am allergic to so we had to check out and get another hotel . Had to get Expedia to get me a refund . Then someone from the staff showed up

The keyfob for the building did not work. If you are staying for a weekend, ear plugs are a must. A nearby bar played music outside until 2am on a Saturday, past 11pm on Sunday.

We liked the space of the 2 bedroom for the price. The neighborhood was fun and lively, the pool and gym were nice. The unit itself was clean, but tired. Terrible water pressure, worn carpets, dodgy curtains, generally very bare bones. Also, only chromecast TV, which was a bummer, as we like to watch local news, etc.

Cold stay but great location and communication

I really appreciated the size and amenities like washer and dryer of the unit, the fan above the bed that you cannot turn off was awful. I was so cold. I had to literally flip the switch for the entire bedroom in the fuse box just to rest comfortably at night. No way to get extra blankets or pillows like you would in a full hotel but, might be an option to consider providing.

Loved Sonder, stayed for two weeks while we visited family. Loved it, walking distance from everything so we got to do whatever easy. Avoid parking in the building and drive around the nearby neighbourhood for great parking. Highly recommend. Clean. Easy to be.

We enjoyed our stay at Sonder, the room was nice, but the bathroom could have been a little more clean. Overall, I would definitely recommend this property for a stay in Austin!
