Not as advertized
Room not as advertized at all. Very small, no table to put your Cpap machine. Had to put it on the bed next to me. Outlets are hard to reach and not that many. Floor not even. Definitely not worth what i paid for the stay. Was very difficult to get check in information and required numerous phone calls. Very frustrating and not worth the price.

Nice enough
Nice place, but no on site staff to assist with any issues. I loved the mattress, but was surprised that there was no mini fridge. Also, no daily refresh of the room. We had to reuse the 3 paper cups for several days, which was not ideal.

Seemed safe to walk around, property was clean
Robert, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Overall this was a great experience, good place to stay, and would stay there again. There were some small cleanliness oversights in the room like crumbs on one end table. The lobby and hallway were also not dirty, but untidy. This stay was at an unstaffed location, but made me wonder when it had been serviced. On a Sunday night, the only trash can in the lobby was overflowing, and one of the few conveniences in the lobby, a small coffee machine, was broken and appeared to have been in the state for some time with no indication of it being broken and the supplies (coffee pods, and sugar) fully stocked. This seemed to signal a lack of timely care for the common spaces especially.

8/10 Very good

The room is a bit dated and really could use new carpeting. Other than that it was very nice and convenient to metro and many restaurants, bars, etc.

Very nice hotel, easy access to everywhere we needed to go. No staff on grounds but then the app the assisted chat answered promptly.

Great location and perfect for my needs! Would stay again for sure!
Frankie, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

There was no sound insulation between room 204 and the lobby area, and no staff to monitor the behavior in the lobby. No concierge is not a hotel. It should not be listed as one.
George, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Not what we expected
No front desk, had to enter using a code. No fridge in the rooms, only a public fridge on the main floor. No water fountains either. Luckily there was a 711 a block away though. Room was very small and bathroom had no hooks for the towels. Would not stay here again.

We picked the hotel for location and price. Everything was clean and check in was seamless. For the price point you can’t get much better if you’re looking to stay in DuPont Circle. We’d happily come back if we are in DC again.

Room is fine but needs blackout blinds!
The windows need black out blinds. The lights right outside the window illuminated the room the whole night even with the provided blinds closed.

Better Than Expected But Not Great
My first time staying at a Sonder property, and while I'm not sure I would choose it over a more traditional hotel again, I was very impressed by how well the "staffless hotel" concept worked - I was able to walk right in and go straight to my room without wasting time checking in or anything like that. The room was a perfect size - not too big or too small - and the bed was comfortable, but the bathroom could definitely use some attention (tiles were cracked and even missing along the edges, the faucet in the tub was... precarious). Overall, though, it was a nice place to stay, especially for the price.
Daniel, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

Terrible and overpowering smell when you walk in the door. The toilet was dirty and when I immediately messaged them to ask about fixing I was given the run around and did not get a refund.
