Recommending this place; please read for details
Location was great for my work which was in downtown Ottawa. The room/studio with the full kitchen was excellent. The only thing perhaps was that the washroom was small and one needed to run the shower for a minute or two for the water temperature to stabilize. Staff was friendly and helpful.

Overall, it’s OK. I like the spacious room. I would’ve given higher stars. But my light broke down, the tub has weird stains, a really dirty teapot. And it’s a lot of weird sounds going on in the room during the night. But the area is quiet though. It’s good for family stay not if you’re trying to get some luxury out of it. I think the overall price is a little bit on the high end for what it provides.

They want you to upload all your personal info online before arrival and told me that it was not possible to do a manual check in at the reception. I did not like this at all and they only offered to refund. They could not transfer me to any manager and had no platform for complaints. So I would not recommend this place to people who are worried about data protection. It was also very loud in the corridors when other rooms were being cleaned (constant noise of doors banging).

Property was modern and suite had everything we needed and we were surprised our studio apartment had a dishwasher. Loved the lounge areas in the building and the gym . We also walked everywhere we went to as restaurants and major tourist attractions were close by. Cleaning provided was daily which was a big plus. Overall a great experience and I will be using sonders in other cities when I travel.

Took us 2.5 hours waiting because my first name was not matched with my ID. Even though I was at the front desk showing my ID, credit card and email confirmation of the booking. Sadly she doesn’t have any power to help because it’s another team behind the computer processing the booking. How funny it is to have the guy behind the computer to go thru the verification instead of the person at the front desk. Luckily we have support from the person at the front desk patiently helping us going thru this hassle. Not recommend to travelers, I would rather to pay more than to go thru my experienced . First time and last time with Sonder.

Room was very nice and spacious, but very noisy. There were wall a/c units where the noise from the bus stop below came right into the room. TV didn't work and lights were flickering
