Theresa, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Beat up, needs a fresh paint
Very beat up location, originally was probably looked grgeous but scuffs and trashy touch up paint. Shower head has no pressure but beautiful design details.
Candice, 1-night trip

The place itself was super nice - clean and cozy. The area of Fishtown was nice too and was super walkable. It felt pretty safe to us!

Wonderful place and great value for money! Only negative is having to find street parking
Hugh, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

No sleep!
People were running around outside our door yelling until 5am. No on site management so beware!

The place instead was nice. Limited utensils though. The elevators were unfortunately down doing my stay.

We really enjoyed our stay in this reasonably priced, beautiful 1 bedroom with a kitchen in such a vibrant part of the City! Lots of trendy places to eat and shop too!
Kim, 5-night trip

Trendy place in a great location.
Really good stay, so close to great food. Difficult to get cheap/close parking but it is doable. Great place!

Really nice except for parking difficulty
Hugh, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Nice but…..
We stayed for one evening for a concert at the Filmore. Pros: 1. Good location around lots of restaurants, bars, and 15 minute walk to the Flimore. 2. Updated space, new appliances and cabinets. 3. Clean bed and bathroom, although the counter top did need to be cleaned as well as the coffee table. 4. Rooftop space. We did not use too cold, though it is a nice area to relax with views if weather was better. Cons: 1. Parking is very hard to find. 2. Carpet in the bedroom needs replacing. Stained and edges curl up. Tripping hazard. 3. Door at street level that lets you into the building does not lock behind you when you enter. I contacted someone through the Sonder app and was told it would be fixed. It was not. Safety concern.

We enjoyed our stay here. Instructions were clear and everything was clean and in order. Everything was great but I’d say the only negative is limited parking and construction.
Ms., 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great to have an apartment at a hotel price. I could get up early and make coffee while letting my wife sleep. I also loved having the ability to cook. Very convenient to the EL and neighborhood bars and restaurants. The only thing I did not like was the weird TV setup of only Chromecast, never could figure it out.
Matthew, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This was a great apartment. Spacious and up to date. Parking was a little tricky but was ok. I would definitely stay here again
David, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

It was nice having an apartment to move around in, rather than just a hotel room. Good closet space. I didn't use the kitchen except a couple of dishes for food brought in. The bed was comfortable. I didn't like the shower. The showerhead was not good. And the apartment was noisy because the bedroom backed the train tracks which were one block away. There was an empty lot right behind us so there was little to block the noise.
Beth, 3-night trip

Great location and spacious
I booked this apartment for visiting family and they loved it. The location was great and the unit was spacious. We also enjoyed he rooftop. Plenty to do nearby and it's also close to public transit.

The Joys of Philly’s Frankford Avenue & Fishtown
Sonder’s Frankford Ave. location in Fishtown is right in the midst of a plethora of fab eating establishments and a record store four storefronts down the block; walking south on Frankford Ave. after three minutes you reach a cool rock club (Johnny Brendas) and then another three minutes away you come upon an entertainment complex which includes The Fillmore, a twenty-five hundred capacity music venue, that was very cool. We went to see The The last night and they were great! Oh … let me also mention a very spacious and yummy coffee/tea/egg sandwich spot … Gryphon Cafe right around the corner from Frankford Ave. and West Jefferson Street on North Broad Street. So much to do … all within walking distance.
