Drain in bathroom sink didn’t work well, there was no shampoo just two little bottles of conditioner and two of lotion. The batteries in the remote were dead. There was no dish soap so I couldn’t wash my dishes when I wanted to reuse them. Otherwise the rest was grand.

Gorgeous brownstone next to Newbury. It is a bit loud in the area being on commonwealth ave, but the perfect walkable location. We loved our stay at sonder. The unit we were in was beautiful and we especially loved the gas fireplace. Would stay there again in a heartbeat .

This was my first time staying at a Sonder property. My husband and I were very pleased with the entire experience! The entire contactless experience was very easy and straightforward.

My remote key did not work, so I had to punch in the long code each time I went in. My room was clean, and the location was convenient and close to everything, so I would probably stay here again. However I was woken up at 7am to drilling, and construction noises that sounded like they were coming through the wall in my room, and my bed was even vibrating. Not to happy when I like to sleep in when I am on vacation.
