This place exceeds expectations! We had seen reviews, and we just needed a reasonable place to stay in LA. We saw negative reviews about parking, noise, and hot water issues. We went into this with expectations based on those things. We were definitely blown away. The place itself is in a fine area, and feels very safe. The staff are so kind. The building is decorated gorgeously and had amenities. The room was large and fit four adults comfortably. There *is* a weird window from the shower into the room, but that didn't bother us. There were some construction noises and issues with the AC leaking but we made the best of it. Parking ended up being free but with the first-come-first-serve thing, we took the *last* spot many times during our stay, particularly on the nights we were out past midnight. We are definitely going to seek out Sonders to stay at in other cities and countries we visit. Book this place with confidence that it is a safe, clean space to sleep and hang out but ideally for trips where you spend most of your time outside of the hotel. My best tip: know what to expect. Bring earplugs just in case, be prepared to fight for parking, and no housekeeping unless you request it. If you are a go-with-the-flow make-the-best-of-it kind of person, this place will blow you away.
