Stay Here! It is amazing

Amazing modern property on Lady bird Lake. You can literally walk outside to South Congress and see the bats, walk around the train, walk up S. Congress to shops and clubs, walk downtown. They have a coffee station you can use downstairs . Our unit had an amazing view of Downtown. The apartment was large and had 2 balconies and the bedrooms were not connected. I would stay here again. They also had free garage parking. The beds were comfortable. They only thing that was strange were the huge bathtubs. They were hard to get in and out of and did not have grab bars. It could be dangerous for an older or very short person.

Nice clean property. Poor communication on Sonder’s end. No TV for the whole stay. Remote for TV didn’t work, other than that great place to stay.

Overall stay was above my expectations. Entering the complex took a bit of time for the front desk to answer the call but after that everything was smooth sailing. The unit was clean and spacious. The instructions for the elevator and access to the unit was descriptive and easily understandable. I enjoyed my visit and look forward to my next trip back.
