Immaculate and comfortable. I was on the second floor so there was a little bit of street noise and was able to hear the subway, which runs right underneath. However, it did not disturb me. If you’re not used to urban ambient noise or you prefer something very quiet, you might want to request a higher floor. We had a wonderful stay; great spot!

The room was very comfortable and in a great location. The communication and accessing the room for the trip was irritating. They did not follow through on technical difficulties and did not send the room codes when they said they did. I had to set up an account over and over and then it just reset and they wanted me to add the app. That felt ridiculous for a one night stay.

Disliked: Amenities
Zero ability to contact and actual human about issues (which I had), and I was kicked out of the apartment with wet laundry in the machine. I humbly submit myself and admit that it was the checkout time, but I just needed 20 minutes to finish up and the guy who kick me out who didn't speak English made me pack my wet, soapy clothes... He wouldn't just let me wait outside the apt for the cycle to finish....

Terrible Stay at the Sonder Ovation

The elevators were not working and I have disability and needed help going up and down the stairwell. The elevator was still not working on my checkout date. I tried to chat with Sonder online but was never connected to an agent until Late Wednesday night. The person staying above me was noisy and kept me from falling asleep. They woke me up at 6:30 am. I will never stay at the Sonder Ovation in Philadelphia again.

Excellent Location & Stay

We stayed here for the Eagles parade and it was absolutely perfect. The beds are super comfortable and the apartment was roomy and had everything that was needed. For the prior complaints about noise, I think it's somewhat unrealistic of expectations. It's in a dense part of a major city and will have major city noise. Having grown up in Philadelphia and staying with two five year olds, we had no issues with noise during sleep. Would gladly stay here again.

Great place to stay near downtown

Great stay. Building and apartment was clean. The 1 bedroom apartment with office was beautiful and well appointed. Parking is on street only and is limited. Great neighborhood though, plenty of restaurants, shops, etc. within walking distance.

Beautiful and clean apartment with great views. Only downside was strange noises coming from the master bathroom walls at night…random pounding. Ear plugs and a sound machine were provided and now we know why.

The place is very nice. However, the walls are paper thin and the noise from the street below is unbearable. They left us earplugs and we figured out why the first night! Impossible to sleep with the noise. Beds were uncomfortable as well.
