I was over the moon to stay at the sonder, it was everything I expected and more. This was my first trip solo to a town I wasn’t so familiar with and the sonder made me feel really safe w the way they have a code to enter the building. The room itself, I wish I could live there it’s so lovely. I will be back and I will recommend.

Everything went good, just didn’t enjoy the checking in process. Without booking directly with the host had made it kind of complicated but we figured it out and everything else was great.

I’ve stayed in a Sonder before and really like the concept. It was a clean unit and nice to have kitchen facilities and washer and dryer all within a nicely designed space. Our unit was extremely loud and we could hear people coming off of the elevator at all hours of the night as well as the slamming stairwell door. We were not told that the refrigerator would be off and we added food to it and ended up throwing it all away because it went bad from the fridge not being on. Additionally, Sonder says there is a supply locker in the lobby and we could refresh our own towels and supplies as needed. That was not the case. I appreciated the code that was needed to get into the building which added some additional security. But all in all the area around there just does not seem super safe and if it was dark, I definitely would take a lyft/uber back to the apartment.

It was nice and spacious. However you’re pretty much on your own for any service. There were two bath towels for three of us. We asked for three days for more and never got a third towel. The tv and Roku remotes didn’t work. Nobody was available so you couldn’t watch tv. They probably just need batteries. The desk guy is there sometimes but really doesn’t do anything. The location was great. The people mover is free and it’s a couple hundred feet from your door.

This was a great spot for our family of 5. Clean, comfortable, in a great location. Even though they do not offer parking onsite, there is plenty of pay lots around, or I opted to park free over at MGM Casino, with about 7 minute walk back to property. Will definitely recommend this property & stay again.

Great stay in Detroit

I was very happy with my stay at Sonder. The location was great; walkable distance to everything I wanted to see. Having all the amenities of a studio apartment really helped me to save money by being able to cook and store food. The only slight complaint is that it could have been a little bit cleaner; but I would definitely stay here again next time I am in Detroit!
