Our lock on the room frequently malfunctioned and required us to enter the code a dozen times before it our open. The mobile key feature NEVER worked at the room (It did work on other keypads but not our room). The top of the mattress couldn't have been 18" above the floor. It was like sleeping on the floor. If I was 6 years old, perhaps this would have been fun. As a 60 year old man this was not so fun! Lastly, after the date had passed where we could cancel we received this note from the hotel: "Please note that there is an outdoor vent machine outside of the window of this apartment. It is not related to Sonder. We provide noise machines and earplugs to minimize any disruption this may cause." This is something that should have been disclosed BEFORE we even booked. We will NEVER return to this location!

Fully automated check-in and property access make arrival easy. Please replace keypad on front door. Numbers are worn off and Bluetooth electronic key doesn't work. Backlit version would be best.

We liked our stay very much. Our room was spacious and clean. The neighborhood is excellent and walkable, with a lot of shops and restaurants. The lack of any staff present was frustrating at times as there were login issues with the app at check in and I had to call customer service to get our building entry code.

It was fine for what it was and the shower was admittedly amazing! The room was also very well stocked, which was VERY good considering I did not actually see a staff member the entire time I was there! There is absolutely NO front desk om the premises! And the checkin process is a long and drawn out, even including a face scan over your phone! Ireally wish I was WARNED of this process prior to booking! Also make absolutly sure you have NO issues with your email because that is the ONLY way you will be able to get the access code to get into your room! No matter what they will not give it to you over the phone, even WITH the face scan and upload of your ID! I now know this from experience! I now understand why I've seen people just standing outside Sonder properties for extended times looking lost. And actually upon my arrival there was a guest who was just sitting in the lobby for 45 minutes completely unable to get into his room despite being on the phone with Sonder staff. People need to ne WARNED of the checkin process prior to booking or at least well in advance of their stay!

Room directly above noisy bar. I have stayed here several times and those days were fine, but this time my room is directly above a bar, and the floor is thumping. All I want from a hotel is a quiet room, and if you stay here, you risk not getting that.

We enjoyed our stay at Sonder and found the self check-in process convenient. The room was clean and comfortable; however, the sink near the fridge area was clogged. We didn’t really need it, so it wasn’t a big deal for us. The area felt very safe and was within walking distance to most of the popular attractions. There is a rooftop access with chairs and tables, but it’s not very organized and feels more like a storage area for the facility. I would return to Sonder the Queen without a doubt. For a couple looking for a comfortable, clean place to rest and recharge, it felt perfect to us. If you’re looking for a more premium experience with amenities for a family, it might not meet all of your expectations.

The room was spacious for 3 people and it was clean. I like how we had access to more toiletries if needed and has access to a filtered water machine. I really like the location of the hotel as there are many options for food within walking distance. The hotel is located at a very prime location in Queens Village. I would definitely stay here again if I visit Philly again!
