The unit was clean and spacious, I appreciated the little touches like the laundry facilities with no additional charge, as well as the security features within the building. Safety is something this location excels at with no access being granted to the main door elevator or your hotel unit without a security code or digital key. I will definitely stay at this hotel again.

This was our first time at a Sonder as we usually stay with hotels. It was like having your own apartment in a convenient location. Bed was very comfortable but no broadcast TV and the air conditioner was too noisy to leave on. Area across the street was a bit sketchy but we had no issues.

The staff and facility were lovely. Walking distance to restaurants and things to do. Parking in Ottawa is never ideal, but the Sonder staff were very accommodating with what they have to work with!

We did not sleep well as the air conditioner was extremely loud. After turning it off the place heated up very fast.
