1) this place is owned by a larger company called Sonder which basically has a monopoly on large apartment buildings to rent out exactly like Airbnb’s. I specifically use Airbnb because I like to support homeowners and actual people who have a side hustle - not a big corporation. They make you check in via their OWN app, not the Airbnb app, where you have to upload a photo ID and go through a much more vigorous process than if it was just hosted on Airbnb.
2) there was slim to none in terms of free parking around here - it’s paid parking around the building except for a sliver of street parking that is always full. If that info was I clouded I wouldn’t have booked it.
3) Sonder claims you can request early/late check in/out times, but on their app all the potential times are crossed off. I had to reach out to their support team to get a hold of someone for a late checkout, but their cleaning team still banged on my door and tried to get in several times early in the morning.
