Great choice
It was a great place to stay. Very clean. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Beautiful views. Housekeeping was very thorough and efficient. Easy access to the subway. Only a few blocks of walking to a nice range of good restaurants.

The pictures definitely make it look more glamorous than it is. The location & neighborhood are great, the coffee & roku TV were a nice touch and the bed was quite comfortable, but the room itself was incredibly sterile (borderline institutional). Thin doors & walls let a lot of noise in, making it tough to sleep soundly. A decent stay if you can get it at a good price, but it felt less like an upscale hostel and more like a dormitory lined with stark white walls as far as the eye can see.

Could use a more thorough cleaning. Drawers had trash and melted chocolate. Lamps had not been dusted in some time. Mystery light switches to nothing. Reception is friendly/helpful. Comfy bed. Tv did not work

Room was ok/ stayed here a few times and have had nice rooms and passable rooms. Room itself fine but smelled moldy or dirty mop smell upon entry, woke up and the keurig in the room is not working, this time was a less nice stay.

This is my second stay at this property & next time I come to the city, I’ll stay there again! The staff is primarily friendly & helpful. Most of them go out of their way to make sure your stay is perfect! Love the neighborhood & this property!

The vibes of this place were immaculate! The room was small but I didn’t mind. The hotel was very clean and quiet. They do not offer a lot of amenities but since I was only there for two nights, it was fine. Definitely in a great location, there were plenty of restaurants and shopping places within walking distance. I would stay here again.

Check in is...potentially irritating.
Check your email, because checking in here needs an advanced degree...all checking in requires a license and credit card, online and GOD HELP YOU if you don't have the code, because no one else can.

We had a great stay at Sonder. The location is great and the room has all the essential amenities including an iron and really good coffee! The room is just perfect, especially in terms of the price.

Location
I loved the location. There was a subway stop directly across the street, and everything in Park Slope was within a short walking distance. The room was small but comfortable enough. I liked the no-frills vibe.

Great location and good enough rooms. The bathroom was not perfectly clean, and the nice coffee maker was as lacking both coffee and anything to drink out of.
