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.

Lovely place
I loved this place. Room was appealing and comfortable, and I loved the windows that provided a view and so much natural light. Location was perfect and walking distance to many things. I had just come from New York City where I stayed in a nice hotel, but it was smaller and only had a view of a brick wall, so it was a nice change. The only reason it’s not 5 stars is because the shower door had an issue where it wouldn’t stay completely closed at times, and the mini fridge was making weird noises and probably needed maintenance. Great place though

Great location! New bakery feet from the lobby is excellent. Queens Village has so much to offer. We parked across the street for $30 a day.
