Apartment life in a hotel
The convenience of an apartment in a hotel setting. A full kitchen that we cooked in and really enjoyed. Would stay in another Sonder for sure

1 bedroom unit with kitchenette. Overall the unit was spacious but bathroom was tiny. Bed was comfy. Lockers to store luggage were very convenient. Neighborhood has many dining options and 24 hour drug mart. Walkable to bus lines. On site staff during the daytime but not nighttime. Big thank you to JEFF (front desk agent who checked us in on July 14, 2024) - he was so kind, patient, and treated us like family!

This "hotel" is not a hotel.
This hotel is not a hotel at all - it is an old apartment building that has been converted to rooms for rent. There are no facilities, no services, no restaurant and almost no one at the "front desk".

It's in a very walkable lovely neighborhood. The thing I didn't realize is it's a big slope between the beach and the hotel. It was not as easy as I would like to go to the beach with a stroller and all the stuff

The property was conveniently located downtown. Accessible by foot to dining, drugstore and groceries. 5 mins walk to Sunset Beach area to access pathway along the shore. It takes you directly to Stanley Park. Property is well kept. Maintenance was being done on elevators during our stay but they were on top of their communications.

The property and room was great. However, Sonder neglected to contact me in advance of my stay to let me know that they downgraded my booking from a Superior Room to a 1 Bedroom Apartment (main difference being a Queen bed instead of a King bed). I noticed this after checking in to my room and thinking the bed appeared tiny. After contacting them they had no other Superior rooms available and told me it’s because the room I had booked was because the room required “pest control and maintenance.” I asked for further clarification and they said “ Pest control making sure that room is free of bugs/insects, if there's any. As we need to make sure that rooms are free of bugs or insects.” So do what you want with that information. I requested they provide a refund for the difference in room costs but was provided no other compensation. I feel like Sonder should’ve notified me in advance, provided additional compensation for not doing so, and give the option for me to be able to find alternative accommodation that would’ve better suited our needs in advance. Rather than just hoping we could wouldn't notice their change to our itinerary.

This was one of the best properties I’ve ever booked on Expedia. I can’t wait to come back and stay here! Great neighborhood, easy check in and out process, paid for parking and was seamless. I can’t recommend this place enough!
