The actual room was amazing and very clean and comfortable but I wasn’t a fan of no front desk associate and you had to call or text a number. We got there early and wanted to see if we can check in early and the customer service number was not very helpful. We had to walk around until we found someone and they finally helped us.

One of the worst check-in experiences ever, after 6:00 PM, the property is no longer staffed. Creating an account, ID and facial recognition needed to get the code for our door, which was in the older lovely part of the hotel, downstairs had a few rom of a shared area and a few rooms upstairs We didn't realize until later after we brought our bags in that the front door wouldn't lock, our room door was right next to the front door, so we were very concerned with anyone just walking into the property. There also was a homeless encampment under the bridge overpass and with no staff, "Sorry there's nothing we can do" was the response after talking with multiple managers. They did try to find us another roon at one of their other Orlando properties but all were sold out. We moved the bed away from our door and had a very restless 1st night. They did fix the door the next day, but knowing now how Sonder manages their properties we will never stay at one again.

Our stay at The Wellborn was lovely. It’s charming and staying in the oldest house in Orlando means there are quirks. The floor in our room was slanted, electrical outlets are in the weirdest places (common in an 1883 house that has been refurbished into a hotel) and the bathroom was tiny. That said, the decor was beautiful and the whole place was whimsical. I wish I had known there would be loud music playing until 1am most nights, but thankfully they provided earplugs in the room. All in all a lovely place to stay.

Any question I had was answered, every problem solved, and the customer service was amazing. The process was simple and smooth from check in to check out. I wish they had more parking space but I understand they have to work with what they have.

Location was easy for my needs. It’s located next to a hospital so you do hear sirens and traffic from the offramp located in front of the property. My biggest gripe is the fact there’s a restaurant and bar that closes at 1 AM right underneath your window and all of the hotel rooms are encircled around this area. They do provide sound machines and earplugs, but it does not suffice for any kind of restful sleep until after 1:30 AM. The room, however, was very clean. Because of the fact, this is a wedding and event venue as well as a restaurant and bar parking gets a little crazy in the night time. Just be prepared.

Couples Getaway to Orlando

We loved the location of the Wellborn, not on a main street, but within walking distance to great restaurants and bars and Lake Eola Park. The property is very charming. We stayed in the pink building, which is very Art Deco. The furniture was sparse, but the bed was extremely comfortable. The only complaint is that our bedroom windows face the patio, with lights strung across it and in the trees, making it a well-lit area, but the lights remain on even after the bar/restaurant closes at 1 a.m. There are no blackout curtains or shades, only plantation shutters so the light filters through and can be disturbing.

Stayed for 9 days at Sonder and enjoyed every day. It was spacious and clean. Every morning i walked through historical downtown and at one park there is a very nice workout station. The only issue i had was the bed was a bit too hard for my liking and one evening pretty sure it was a weekend the Dr Philips house has an an event that was very loud. If they could add an amenity a pool would have been nice to escape the hot Florida sun but we would head to the beach which was 1 hour away. Overall great stay and I would definitely stay again.

This is a no person no staff operation. Everything by internet. T here is literally no one at the hotel except som cleaning staff. Everything operates by App - which you find out the details after you book. So you need to download apps. Open accounts. The whole thing is a giant nuisance the first time you stay. Then if you have a problem - like I did twice - the only option is to text via the app. I had to wait 5 mins to start texting. Wasted another 20 minutes and they told me to call because they could help by text. They gave me a number and I calls 3 times and got no answer. I went back to texting and they informed me they gave me the wrong number. Then I called. Got someone on the phone. And an hour later I found out that the reason my tv wasn’t working was because there is no tv service !!! The v is only a large monitor that can be used to stream videos from your phone ! It was a mind numbing experience.

Seems like the area is nice that the property is in. The only issues I had was that the lights came in the room at night and I literally couldn’t sleep all night because of how bright it is even with the blinds closed, also the AC is terrible and the beds are super uncomfortable. The room we saw in the picture is not at all what we got either. We booked this for Monday night and nothing was open that night for the amenities. Not saying that’s their fault but still something to keep in mind.
