It definitely felt safe. I liked that you could ask a question when you needed something, and usually quite resourceful. What I didn't like as much was the information on how to get new towels. I stayed for a week, and there were supposed to be towels on the 2nd, third and 4th floors, in the essentials closet, but there were never any. I had to hunt them down from the cleaning staff, and they had to find a full set on the various different floors, so it took some time. If you are staying for a week, you should have complimentary towels, half way in. You should also have at least one complimentary cleaning during that time frame, not have to pay for it, if you want it. You should also have someone come in a take out the garbage/recycling once in that time frame, not have to be responsbile for it yourself. The bags don't fit in the various compartments for garbage and recycling even with putting a knot in the bag to make it smaller. The bathroom door kept closing on us, and the only way to stop it, was to bunch up a towel. We also had a fire alarm during one of the nights around midnight - it would be good to acknowledge it with an email the next day. So overall, it was an average stay, and the staff seemed helpful and friendly.

Thank you for sharing your feedback about your recent stay with us, Shari. We're glad that you felt safe and found our staff to be helpful and friendly. However, we apologize for the inconvenience you experienced with new towels and the lack of information about housekeeping. We offer guests the ability to book housekeeping services on demand for a nominal fee. This ensures guests can enjoy an uninterrupted and sustainable stay. Otherwise, we're happy to deliver fresh linens to your door. There are trash receptacles on each floor for guests to place trash. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back for a more enjoyable experience in the future.

They are located in Cambridge, good quality of restaurants for students and travelers and really safe. It's good to see the village style of the harvard side and tech facilities style of MIT sides. There is nothing bad side of hotel specifically.

My recent stay at Sonder Main in Cambridge was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment I arrived, I was impressed by the attention to detail and the luxurious atmosphere of this upscale accommodation. Location: Situated in the heart of Cambridge, Sonder Main boasts a prime location. Surrounded by vibrant streets, trendy cafes, and iconic landmarks, it offers the perfect base for exploring the city. With easy access to public transportation, getting around was a breeze. Accommodations: The apartment itself was a haven of comfort and style. From the sleek modern furnishings to the fully-equipped kitchen, every aspect of the space exuded sophistication. The attention to detail was evident, with thoughtful touches throughout the apartment adding to the overall ambiance.

Everything was great and smooth. The staff held onto our luggage and were very nice. The room was bigger than we expected. The only issue was that even though we were given an accessible room (none of require accessibility option), the light switches were low, but everything else was quite high. The coat rack was very high, so even my shorter friend needed my help putting their coat up. This is not an issue for us, but I could see this being an issue if someone who did need an accessible option were to stay in this room. Overall though, everythinf was fantastic.

I am writing to express my disappointment with the unhelpful service received during my recent stay. The front desk staff, when approached for parking information, directed me to the Cambridge government page and refused to share local parking insights, citing policy. Such interactions marred my experience, and I believe improvements in customer service are essential.

Very good deal
Some other reviews were true: the bed sheet was noisy, a hair on the toilet seat. Those happened in my visit too. But for the price and location, this is still a very very good deal. Will stay here again if I am the area again.

Wonderful little spot! Not like a typical large scale hotel, but honestly I liked this way better. There isn’t a key or key card, it’s all keypads, which I think is easier so you don’t lose you key and get locked out, There isn’t front desk staff 24/7 but there is the app that helps with questions or assistance. The room is a little on the smaller side but honestly didn’t bother me at all, I got the deluxe room that had the breakfast nook sort of thing by the window and I loved it. There’s 2 restaurants and bars in the hotel, and there’s tons to eat in walking distance. Overall highly recommend!

Easy online check-in via their mobile app. Room was excellent, clean, and the view was also great. Necessities were provided, the essentials closet was a unique addition and it was nice that we can go get what we need for our room there. Requested for a room cleaning and I was happy to see that they changed the bedsheets. Overall a pleasant stay. I look forward to staying at Sonder for my future travels.

Great location but check-in process is terrible. They require that you do it on line and they ask a lot of private information and pictures of you and drivers license that is not necessary to upload onto the internet and their website. This also allowed them to send me numerous emails (more than 15) subsequently which is extremely bothersome. I am still getting marketing emails from them weekly. What happened to the regular check in procedure where the front desk looks at your ID?

Fine, if you don't care about short sheeting
The property is located in a very good area with restaurants and T station not too far. The staff was very nice, but front desk leave at 6 pm and you will need your phone/email to get to your room after that time. The room was very clean and bathroom well appointed. The down side... the sheets didn't fit the bed. The minute you sat on it, every corner popped off. Every night, we were fighting to keep the sheet in place. Also, the AC didn't really work. We turned it down to 66 and it didn't go below 70. Would I stay there again...no...unless they got sheets that fit the bed.

Disappointed :(
This stay was definitely one I will remember. I was surprised by the non existence of a front desk representative. The fact that I had to use a code to get in to the building was different. I couldn’t locate anyone to help with anything I may have needed. I didn’t receive a room cleaning. I left one night early and I still have to pay for the one night I didn’t stay there. This will definitely be the last time I stay there and will NOT suggest this to anyone in my company. I had scout 8 colleagues stay there this week but we will not be retuning. We also had an issue with the bar upstairs as they were pretty rude with our large group moving furnishings around so we could all speak to each other. All in all, I guess I am just used to the amenities and hospitality of a larger hotel chain. Disappointed.
