10/10 Exceptional

Great price and better location…
Dan, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great accommodations. Very clean and spacious. Cool charm and character of the older building but updated nicely.
Austin, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Cozy space for a fun weekend getaway

It was my first time visiting Philadelphia and this was an affordable and conveniently located stay. At first my partner was a little skeptical of a place with no personnel on site 24/7, but he was pleasantly surprised with everything. It was easy to access the building and room, everything was secure and clean. We appreciated the size of the room, and the mini fridge as well - we were busy all day and it was great to have space for snacks and water. The location was fantastic - lots of great restaurants and cafes nearby, and tourist spots were easily accessed. SUPER appreciative of all the parking options nearby, including a lot across the street that we could see from the windows of the hotel. A great stay! Definitely would recommend and stay again.

Great location

My second time staying at this location. Beds are amazing. Very clean and a great location!
Heather, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It's a perfect location for convenience in the city if you are visiting to look around. The Sonder hotel was excellent. Zero complaints! Very comfortable
Patrick, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great location! Excellent Price!

Excellent price. Excellent location. Hot water available immediately. Bed was comfortable. Only 3 drawbacks were: no bathtub and also no place to eat and you can't watch TV from the bed.
Jessica, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Clean, comfortable room. Great location. Would stay here again
Kimberley, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent stay

Stay was great, a few small items would have made it even better: coffee stirrers, tea, throw blanket and pillows for the couch.
Liz, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very low-touch hotel experience--no staff interaction; use of codes to gain access. Room was spacious/good layout, clean, basic amenities. Several good nearby restaurants, shops; able to walk to many other local sites. However, saw more homeless individuals in the vicinity, also likely due to hotel location.

We were moved to a different property and it was beautiful-

It was a nice place with a nice location and good price
Kevin, 7-night trip

8/10 Very good

Decent place to stay. You absolutely will need to use ear plugs or similar if you want to sleep at night.

Good value for cost.
sam, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Rooms are fine, but recently big software issues

Have stayed here many times and the place is good, but recently they’ve done a tie-up with Marriott that has totally screwed up their app and website. Impossible to find your booking, and since this is a place where there is no front desk and everything is done online, getting my code to enter the building and apartment was a pain. Will stop staying here for a few months till software issues are fixed.
Rakesh, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Nice room in a not so nice place

Roma are nice and comfortable. Especially the bed. However, the location is in a very noisy, dirty location (4 to 5 trash cans at the entry and next to the Patco subway entry: an open air latrine). The elevator was broken all my stay and we had to enter from the emergency door that was stack most of the time. The room was noisy because of the noise from people drunk on the street and the HVAC.
Andrea, 7-night trip

2/10 Poor

Lights always on

The lights is always on. I can't sleep. The escalator doesn't today.
Sadri, 4-night trip

Super cute and homey! Liked how we could use the lockers before/after checkout.

Arco at Sonder Review

It was clean, and all the amenities worked - that was great
Obi, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Good location, good price! No staff per say you mostly do everything yourself.
Erica, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

You need to be very tech savvy just to get into this place, no front desk, requires an app
Walter, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Safe place to stay

The building was safe. The space was nice for 2 parents and a daughter. It was misleading on the site. It looked more divided. It was not. The TV did not work
Mychelle, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The building had tons of character, was very clean, bed was comfortable. You are in the city and it’s an older historic building so you will hear the city. You will not interact with a human for check in, check out or at all for the stay (no staff). It’s in a great location and I enjoyed my stay.
