Always great!
Always clean, comfy, and close to downtown and all the activities in Capitol Hill. I’ve stayed here a dozen times and price permitting it’ll always be my first choice.

Sonder Seattle
Enjoyable stay in Capitol Hill. Room was clean and comfortable and had all the required amenities. Sound proofing was not the best, but ear plugs were provided.

No elevator!
The area of the place is not good very dirty and overcrowded. Not safe if traveling solo. The worst part there is no elevator it was so exhausting carrying our luggage to up to the 6 floor! Finding parking was also such an issue! The room very small! I would not recommend it save yourself stress and get a place with an elevator and cleaner area.

Excellent location and value for $
Great value for money and excellent location. Even without active service staff, I had no trouble accessing my room or other amenities. One minor quibble: since the room did not have a table and chair to sit at, it would be nice to have a lounge in each floor.

All hotel stays should be like this
Absolutely easy and breezy. I love that I didn’t have to talk to one person. My access code immediately worked when it was time to check in and all I ever had to do was tap my phone on the key pad for the building and my room. The room was the perfect size, the shower was great with good water pressure, and I loved the amount of mirrors. I was actually surprised how comfortable the bed was. I slept so well!

While the concept of this property is unique and helpful for a single person who needs a toilet a bed and a shower, it was cramped for a married couple who was recovering from surgery. We left after the first night, we were booked for two nights, there wasn't a chair for my husband to sit in to be upright after his surgery, so we just left. If it were one person, I think it would be better suited, we spent $30 in parking and had a difficult time finding parking the first night. The garage that was suggested in the welcome information, was closed and only allows over night parking until 7 am. It was clean and we received a welcome note from the host.

10/10 Exceptional

The property was wonderful! Clean, well-stocked, and comfortable. I felt very safe when inside. Shower, TV, lighting, style, coffee/tea station, mini fridge (did not keep ice cream frozen)- all very nice. Mobile key worked great. Outside of the property, I honestly didn't feel totally safe as a solo traveler due to many dark spaces, lone people sitting/standing/sleeping in the street, and lots of trash on Boylston Ave. But, there are many wonderful businesses around and the main streets on either side, Pine and Pike, are well lit and there was a lot of foot traffic Thurs-Sat.

Love the location in Capitol Hill! Line 1 to the airport a short walk away with street cars and buses half a block walk. Great restaurants, bars, and things to do all within walking distance. Rooms are small and spartan. Still nice and designed well. They do provide a mini-fidge, coffee machine, and teas. Just FYI: This hotel is largely unstaffed. There are small amenity cabinets on every floor, but do not expect a fully staffed hotel. There are also no elevators for public use aside from a service elevator if you absolutely need it. Bring a water bottle because there are filtered water machines on every floor. I would recommend bringing an eye mask due to the ambiant light in the room coming from electronic LEDs. They do provide earplugs and a white noise machine for those not used to city noise.

Convenient and sterile
It’s great to have a hotel on Capitol Hill, but the room is stunningly sterile for an area with so much personality.

I loved the minimalist decor and how you had everything you needed. I stayed at three different Sonder locations in 4 days. I loved my experience so much. I did notice that each place you could hear noises from neighbors especially in the halls. Ear plugs were provided complimentary. Convenient entry. I recommend downloading the app to have the best experience. Will be back for sure.
