Great property!
Our stay was great! Great size, clean, and comfortable for a family of 5!
Only problem was parking. There’s a lot two blocks down but it was $25 a day to park.

This was our second stay in a Sonder and it really delivered. Really appreciated the home like feel. We needed an extra comforter at one point and it was delivered pretty quickly. It was great to also restock on the essentials at our own pace.

Nice property. Bed small
We reserved a room with a queen bed but received a full bed. We made it work, but we were a little disappointed. Other than that, the property is clean and quiet.

Great Hotel in Philly.
I stayed here for four nights and was completely pleased. The suite was spotless and everything worked very well. I would definitely stay here again.

Customer Service Fail
Room wasn't immediately available .. then 7 AM on the 19th someone on my floor was blasting music . I couldn't find staff on premises to complain then I used the chat function on the app but since it was after 8 they blew me off and said that since it was after 8 AM there was nothing they could do about it. Awful service

Great Bargain, Great Location
Great location, front desk staff was very nice, and the room was comfortable. Full kitchen is a huge benefit. Walked four blocks to grocery store and loaded up for the week.
I wish the fitness center was open earlier, but that was about the only "issue" I had.

We stayed for 2 nights and were impressed with our room. It felt very modern chic. It was very quiet and comfy. The room was very clean as well. We used the gym and the rooftop was very nice. It is very close to center city and all things we planned on doing. Would recommend !

Cool remodeling of an old industrial building. The one bedroom accommodation had stylish furnishings and a nicely appointed kitchen, laundry, and bath.
Unfortunately the location is sketchy. The front desk was frequently unattendedThe staff was unprofessional and indifferent. The walls were paper-thin.

The hotel was excellent. The room was well-supplied and comfortable. It was within blocks of the Reading Terminal market, which is great for a quick breakfast and/or for shopping for dinner. As I have grown more comfortable with the neighborhood, free overnight parking can be found on the street - remember, you are in a city, so leave nothing in the car. There's a small park north of the hotel that looks like a nice short walk. The area is growing and I expect many more neighborhood businesses in 2025.

Overall comfortable stay. Really spacious and clean room with fully equipped kitchen and utensils. One hiccup was that check in was 2 hours late due to housekeeping delays. This was communicated 15 mins after the original check in time but by then I already had accessed the room and saw that the space was not cleaned. Another issue we encountered was that the extra towels and blankets we requested for the sofa bed never arrived.
