First Sonder Stay
We enjoyed our first Sonder stay but wish the bath tub was cleaned better, there was a blanket provided for comfort while movie watching and an actual view - not obstructed by trees.

Very clean and comfortable
Hotel was super clean and comfortable. Nice bathtub and shower, and big window with a view of the museum of nature. I reallt enjoyed using the kitchen but i had to buy some staples like salt and oil. The coffee maker didnt work super well but everything else was in good condition. Also location was perfect.

Comfortable Stay
Place was comfy and easy to access. Would have been nice to have some water bottles, and the carpet was a little dirty. Also, never found the card they said was in the room with the wifi details.
