Outstanding location, value and amenities
Sonder is incredible value given its location and amenities. Centered just a few blocks from downtown Long Beach, Sonder includes fine dining helmed by a Michelin-star chef, lots of attractive outdoor seating, great room amenities -- very comfortable bed, lots of coffee pods, plenty of towels -- all for a price that makes it one of the cheapest hotels in the area!
The staff was so welcoming and friendly. They remember you and always wish you a good day.
I stayed here for the first time for 8 days between May and June, and I was so impressed. I will definitely be coming back when I return to Long Beach in September.

I can honestly say I enjoyed my stay and I will be going back. The parking situation is the only downfall . Also my a/c unit didnt work but because the weather was perfect I didnt bother the front desk about it.

Great Boho Boutique Hotel.
I had a nice stay at this cute boutique hotel. My room was super cute, great lighting and boho decor. The bed very comfortable with 6 fluffy pillows. The staff was great and location convenient with grocery store a block away. Would stay again!

I love the vibe. The areas okay, except if you have to park, the only negative was the neighbor's yelling at each other, but that's a one off.

This is a great hotel close to lots of food and shopping within walkable distances. Parking is a huge negative in this area though. Especially at night if you have plans and get back late. Also, be prepared to have to pay for it throughout the day from 9-6 ($1/hr). The hotel could really use some designated parking options.

I selected this hotel because I was looking for an affordable place within walking distance of the convention center. The Sonder Central City was that and so much more! While the neighborhood is a little rough the property is in wonderful shape, comfortable, and totally safe feeling. The room was comfortable, well appointed and pleasant. The courtyard and pool area is charming, and cafe is wonderful. But what really stood out was the staff. Everyone was so friendly and helpful - I felt like they genuinely wanted to ensure I had a good stay. This was my first Sonder experience but won't be my last!

There is no parking provided at the facility. Lots of homeless around the area. You get a code to the room but it doesn’t work. I booked two nights but only stayed for one. Avoid this property unless you have no choice.

Excellent location, charming retro vibe in LBC
Excellent location and charming retro vibe. Rooms are on the small side but adequate for solo and couples. Very walkable to multiple locations, like the Promenade, 4th Street, the beach, and the Transit Mall. Staff was very helpful and friendly. The bagels and bar at Olive & Rose are excellent.
Minor glitch: The code provided for my room would not work. A staff member had to give me a backup code to use for my stay. The keypad on the outside of the building was not backlit and hard to use.
