Loved staying here - it felt like we were living in Chicago, clean and well styled. Loved the exposed brick and ability to store luggages before and after check in / check out. Great location too, right next to an amazing brekky spot!

The unit is nice and the location is great. However, the stylish exposed ceiling was really problematic. We had screaming/crying children in the unit above us and didn't get a decent night's sleep our entire stay.

Not a good property. Poor communication from Sonder across the board. Had to get Expedia to assist in accessing the hotel. No staff onsite to assist. Bed broke one night. Elevator not available for days for planned maintenance without notice. Rooms have damage in them that have not been fixed. Support through Sonder app & email is terrible... sometimes non-responsive. Was offered a full refund, but have only received a partial refund to date.

Awesome place to stay. Only issue is I’m disabled and not expecting the stairs when I first came into the building. Aside from that beautiful but small studio.

I had a deeply disappointing experience booking a stay at sonder. Despite having my reservation confirmed and providing all necessary identification, my booking was abruptly canceled the night before my arrival for possibly being a “risk” to Sounders community standards. The staff's demeanor and vague explanations left me feeling that this decision was rooted in racial profiling. It's disheartening to encounter such treatment in today's world. I hope sonder reassesses its policies and training to ensure all guests are treated with respect consideration, and fairness in the future. Would not recommend this place to anyone looking for a welcoming and safe stay.

We had a studio unit in the aparthotel and really enjoyed our stay. The communications were clear, making "check-in" very easy. The amenities were great, with a full kitchen, dishwasher, and an in-room washer/dryer combo. Dining options were plentiful in the neighborhood. Union Station is less than a block away.

The stay was straight forward. Login with the passcode and get in. But no one at the reception so some nuances are not easy. For e.g. no early check in even if there are rooms. Also, for long stays, they cant change sheets or towels and no cleaning. It is an interesting concept but not so sure about long term stays like 4-5 days
