Worst experience in 50+ years of travelling
Between the exasperating reservation process and the even more horrendous check-in experience this was the single worst stay in nearly 50 years of travelling all over the world. Thank goodness for the one poor soul in-duty at the front desk who was very helpful but the rest of the system needs serious review. Would not recommend AT ALL to anyone considering a stay at a Sonder property!!

The staff was very helpful and friendly. The accommodations exceeded our expectations. Great little kitchen, nice shower and bathroom.
Lots of dining options nearby. Especially the G Mercado coffee shop and deli one block away. Owner Jennifer went out of her way to give us wonderful service.

Really enjoyed our stay at this Sonder. Perfectly located for our west end TO events. Quick bus trip from Dufferin station and convenient to get Queen streetcar east to downtown etc. Front desk representatives were super friendly and helpful. Stored our luggage without issue and unexpectedly got an early check in with luggage delivered to our room. Near Parkdale restaurants and shops and short walk to Roncesvalles and Little Italy/Portugal. Unit was clean, nicely furnished with nice bathroom and shower products. Had in unit laundry. Will definitely stay here again.

Not much we didn’t like! Check-in was easy. The apartment was clean, spacious and equipped with items to use for meals. The balcony was an added plus.

Nice rooms, horrible set up for checking in
They require you to check in through this app that is very frustrating to use. Got to scan your drivers license and take a picture of your face. To aquire parking is another process, actually a two part process. After paying for parking, there is a separate form to fill out that they dont tell you about. We found out when we looked for our parking code. After the form is filled out it takes up to an hour to get approved, we were stuck waiting outside after a long drive.
There is also not proper signage in the parking garage as to where the elevator is. We ended up locked in the stairwell and had to climb a couple flights with all of our luggage before being able to exit on the street. Nice rooms though once we finally got in.

Lovely apartment. The only criticism being the proximity to the railway
