I don’t think I’ve ever stayed in a hotel where you have to pay for housekeeping. I certainly don’t need it every day but I also don’t think I should be charged for it; especially if that is not made clear at the time of booking. Also the preset temp for the a/c kept the room quite warm at night.

The concierge was top notch. They helped me organize a surprise for my girlfriend’s bday. The room could have been dusted a bit better but everything else was good. The pool was amazing along with the rec room area.

6/10 Good

The place is fine. A bit expensive for what you get, but the location is good if you want to explore downtown Phoenix. The parking/access instructions/process are fairly detailed/elaborate, making getting in a bit of an ordeal. Also, the code for the door/mobile access as well as the wifi didn't work when we arrived, requiring a bunch of back and forth with the host. They were sufficiently responsive, although we had to reset the route ourselves. Since we were only staying the one night and had an early flight to make we would have rather gotten quickly in & settled, rather than spending a bunch of time figuring out the escape-room techniques required to get into the parking garage/building/elevator, unit. If we had stayed longer it probably would not have seemed such a time intensive ordeal.

8/10 Very Good

Great apartment and fabulous rooftop pool with bbqs for use, plenty of comfortable seating, and beautiful sunset views. The wifi went out one of the days I was there which can happen but was quite problematic as I couldn't get in touch with Sonder to advise without it so had to go to a resto for wifi. Might be good to have a back up plan for guests (e.g. portable wifi device) knowing that other guests may also not pay roaming fees or use cell phones while travelling. But overall a great apartment and stay. Central Records was an impressive music/bar space a 2 min walk away and different than the other usual brew pub spaces also close by.

This property exceeded my expectations. The apartment was cleam and spacious and security in the building was exceptional. The building is located in a busy, loud part of town, so expect it to be noisy. The ear plugs on the nightstand were appreciated!

We loved staying here. We had some trouble with opening an email with the instructions but called and the guy was super helpful, friendly and patient while I rebooted my email, lol. The only complaint is the mattress was very uncomfortable.

4/10 Fair

Toilet was broken upon arrival. Was first told maintenance would be up in the morning. Not sure how they thought that would work with no functioning toilet. Finally someone came and tried to fix it but wasn’t successful. We were given access to different room to use toilet but not switch rooms- wasn’t too convenient in middle of the night. Was fixed next day.
