We went for my birthday/ New Years. The locations was nice very close to restaurants and cafes - walking distance. The room was exactly as pictured and clean. However, we did have a few cons -
Parking is no good. Luckily we were able to park about 5 minutes away however, where we parked was only available until April due to seasonal parking restrictions. Other spots you can only park between certain times/dates or park blocks away and pay. Sonder was also no help with the parking situation you have to figure it out on your own via an app.
COVID - unfortunately, Montreal went under lockdown prior to our trip - Restaurants were under restricted times and a lot of places closed. So we tried to cancel and Sonder nor Airbnb would give us our money back. FYI Airbnb no longer considers COVID -19 an extenuating circumstance so they won’t help with the refund either. So we went on the trip with limited access to the things and places we wanted to explore. The night before New Year’s Eve Montreal went into a bigger lockdown and set a curfew so we couldn’t even go out on New Years. Again, Airbnb and Sonder were no help.
Definitely, will make me think twice about booking with Sonder and also Airbnb as COVID continues.
