We had a great stay. The accommodation was well equiped for us to prep our own meals if we wished to. There was a lot of space in the apartment with separate living and sleeping spaces. The bathroom had everything you needed. The bed was super comfortable and a great size. We'd definitely recommend Sonder and will definitely use again.
