The area around the property was horrible. Me and my mom were unable to get into the building as there were lot of homeless people blocking the entrance. This is the most unsafe I felt in Philadelphia, a place where I have lived for 2 years. There was nobody at the reception to help. I left the place and immediately booked a room at Residence Inn. I haven’t heard back from the Sonder team, highly unprofessional, wouldn’t recommend them ever.

Upon arriving, we discovered that the only wheelchair accessible entrance door was inaccessible, as our code would not work. We talked with the front desk representative, who told us there was a system failure that needed to be reset. Day 2, and no fix. My family had to go in the front door and let me in the accessible door. We talked with a security guard, who then reported the issue to a manager. She finally had to give us a key fob to access the door. Toilet paper holder broken. Shower curtain rod broken. Toilet running constantly. We had to take the tank lid off to stop it from running. On our last night, we used the clothes dryer. It set off the smoke alarms in the room. We had to be moved to another room. That room faced a street (other room faced a courtyard, so was relatively quiet). Center City is very noisy, so we heard everything going on that Saturday night. The sofa sleeper in that room was horrible. It was basically sleeping on springs. My daughter ended up putting the sleeper back to a sofa and slept that way. We are Sonder members, have stayed in three locations (two in Philadelphia and one in Chicago) and this was our worst experience.

Great experience overall. One of the front desk staff was not very nice cheerful or understanding. Entry keys should be accessible for visually impaired guests. It’s difficult to punch in your code if you can’t see or feel the numbers on the key pad.

The property was ideally located, within walking distance of the things we wanted to see. The unit was clean and as shown in the description. Unfortunately, the neighborhood was very loud at night, as was the HVAC unit.

Traveld for a volleyball tournament at the convention center. It was a 10 minute walk with lots of options for dining. The unit was equipped with everything, it was clean, and very spacious. I will definitely stay here again in the future.

The Sonder Witherspoon is a great option for staying close to the city center. It's very walkable and while there were unhoused people in the area (like any city) we did not feel unsafe. We could have done with a bit hotter water in the room, it was otherwise a clean, spacious room.
