    I adored the thoughtful decor throughout The Arco Powered By Sonder. The spacious room featured high ceilings and soft lighting that created a calming atmosphere, making it accessible and welcoming for seniors like myself. The location was also perfect for exploring.

    More variety in breakfast options would be appreciated.

    great location

    Great location with easy walking access to attractions. The lockers for luggage storage were a lifesaver for us!

    Felt like visiting family, no complaints.

    limited kitchen area

    My kids wished for a bit more room in the kitchen area to prepare snacks. A more functional space would make traveling with young children a breeze.

    modern amenities
    streaming options
    inviting design
    disruptive noise

    Modern design throughout the room, making it feel fresh and inviting. Having streaming through Roku provided a nice alternative to regular cable TV, making it easy to unwind after a long day of sightseeing.

    The noise from the air vents easily disrupts sleep, and the white noise machine offered as a remedy feels more like an afterthought. The lack of traditional reception made for some cumbersome check-in procedures, especially for internationals who might struggle with roaming charges while trying to reach support. Basic amenities like a microwave or cooking space would have added a lot, especially for those who prefer to prepare their own meals.

    epic eats
    spacious room
    easy check-in
    noisy street
    moldy shower

    Sonder's location was a dream! We stumbled upon some epic local eats, with Vedge and Bud & Marilyn's just a few steps away—culinary treasures in every bite! The cozy King Room gave us lots of sunlight, and the high ceilings made it feel spacious. Plus, the easy check-in process was a win.

    The street noise was a nuisance, especially with a party next door vibrating through the walls. And that shower? Let's just say it had a bit of mold action going on that we didn't sign up for.

    comfy bed

    Group looking for a comfy stay

    The room I had was fantastic. Spacious and clean, I mean the bed was like a cloud! And I didn't expect breakfast delivered to my door. that was a nice surprise.

    It wasn't exactly cheap but considering the location, it was still decent.

    comfortable room
    loud street noise

    Had an amazing time with my friends! We explored the historic districts and enjoyed the vibrant nightlife. The location was perfect for walking to various attractions. The room was modern and comfy, and we appreciated the easy check-in process and all the amenities available, including a fridge and coffee maker.

    The street noise was a bit much at times, and I wished for better TV options. It would’ve been nice to have local channels while relaxing. Also, the shower size was a little cramped for my taste.

    solid stay with a few adjustments needed

    The location was perfect for exploring the city. The large bedroom provided real comfort after a long day. The toiletries were high quality, contributing to a pleasant experience.

    However, the noise from outside was a bit distracting at times.

    This was just a great fit for a short stay in Philadelphia with incredible value for money. The bed was wonderful, and I had the best rest I had in a while. Make sure to check in on time to avoid extra charges.

    Bright and unique accommodations made for a pleasant solo trip. The central location allowed for easy exploration on foot, enhancing the overall experience. However, the shower was dim and perhaps not as clean as desired.
