I seldom write reviews, but my stay at the Sonder was so terrible that I had to share it. While the apartment was clean and check-in was relatively easy, the walls were paper-thin, which means you could hear everything outside. Unfortunately the night I was there there was a group of drunk people arguing, screaming and slamming doors intermittently between 1 am and 3 am. Security did respond after I called, only to knock loudly on someone's door and yell 'You're going to be evicted if you don't stop screaming'. Cops should've been called. I later found out a work colleague had a very similar experience a few weeks ago. The guy at the front desk was very nonchalant about the 'yelling' when I mentioned it to him the next morning. Sounds like maybe this happens frequently. Avoid this place.

We stay at the Sonder most times we visit Detroit. It's walkable to everything in downtown, Corktown, and Midtown, and the rooms are spacious and have nice amenities. It's a good value compared to the nearby hotels.

Cant say that I would want to stay here again. Heard arguments from down the hall and another co-worker that was staying at the same hotel said the same. Not really worth the money. Spend a little more and go to the Westin.

My second time staying at this Sonder location. First time staying in a 2 bedroom apartment. Not much to complain about here. Property is in the heart of downtown 15 minute walk to Pistons game (Little Ceasers Arena). While there were no onsite food options (besides couple vending machines) there are plenty of options within 1 to 4 blocks. We had dinner at nice upscale soul food establishment and Steak house both one block away and there were plenty of other options. MGM (casino) 10 minute walk. Only cons (if you can call it that): - No daily room service….if you really want that - Heating and cooling mini splits filters could use a cleaning. - Bedrooms (at least in this unit) did not have any windows. - Bedrooms did not have any TV's, there is one in the living room. - There is quite a bit of homeless in the area asking for change but never felt unsafe.

Great location with many restaurants, bars and markets within walking distance. Airport shuttle bus located just across the street from the building. Staff was very helpful and courteous. I would definitely consider staying here again, when I visit Detroit.
