We were a group of 5 ladies traveling to NOLA for a 50th birthday celebration. We had a three bedroom apartment which was spacious and comfortable for our group. It had a small kitchen with full size fridge. We used the rooftop pool on one of the days during our stay which we found to be clean and a great view of the city! Though there is not a hotel lobby or staff available at all times, they were attentive to messaging when we needed additional toiletries, etc. The location is perfect for exploring all areas of New Orleans, super close to all of the attractions! The little bar in the lobby was also a nice feature! Overall we had a great stay and if any of us were to visit NOLA again we would stay here!

Apartment was great. We had a couple of issues. Washer and dryer not working so had to contact management site to get clean towels. On site personnel could not assist with this without direction from management but it was taken care of in a timely manner. Got locked out of one bathroom and had to jimmy the lock to access. Breakfast in bar not reliable but that wasn’t promised. Made do. Would definitely stay again but realize it’s a process if there is an issue. Location very good.

This Sonder was in a great location and very clean. It was walkable to the Superdome (~15 minutes) and right off Canal St. where there was a street car stop to get to Bourbon, the convention center, etc.! The lobby was a vibe, my only regret was not checking out the bar/coffee bar down there! Will be sure to try it next time!
