Sonder the Edison

Great place for my stay. Was in an area that had all you could need. The washer/drier was especially good.

It made me and my boyfriend field like we lived there, felt very homie and specious, had a parking garage a block away from it, located next to the train and a 10-15 minute walk to all local business and access to a lot of the historic sites located in Philly. Would definitely recommend and already planning my next trip but this time in another Sonder location. Better than staying in a hotel. Full kitchen and washer and dryer machines, equipped with smart tv, open concept and very very clean.

The room came with ear plugs, seriously! There were two pairs near each bed, and bed time it became abundantly clear why that was the case. I wish the property description mentioned that we were being placed right next to a busy street with overnight traffic/noise. Also checking in and parking are a bit more work than a typical hotel, and no lobby/desk to help out in case of needed help. Overnight parking is at least $25, and one has to go figure it out. Rooms are smaller (and taller to compensate) than it appeared in the picture.

Loved everything about this property. The location was perfect. The space was comfortable and had every little thing we needed. Would absolutely stay here again!

Love staying at the wonder had a frat experience in New Orleans and booked here in philly

Great location walkable to many attractions and restaurants Two bedroom apar**ent was well equipped with items needed. Rooftop was an added bonus

This building is cheap construction and you can hear everything, every neighbor, even just walking causes vibrations. When I complained the, they did nothing. I could not sleep for the three nights I was there. This place has horrible customer service and even worse living conditions.

The property itself was great but there were two giant issues: soundproofing and facial recognition. The building is not soundproofed at all, so the noise both outside from the street and inside from the other units made it impossible to sleep. They provide earplugs but it wasn’t enough. The second issue is that our booking was nonrefundable but there was no warning when we booked that they require biometric facial recognition to check in for the property. You can’t get your money back and you can’t get into the property without checking in by scanning your ID and providing a live biometric facial recognition sample with your phone or computer. It’s annoying for people who aren’t great at technology and enraging for people who care about privacy and surveillance technology. They say that the data are deleted right away but it’s run through a third party (Persona) and there’s no way to know what their protocols actually are.

Easy check in and check out
