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.

Dare visit downtown Long Beach!
The area was somewhat disconcerting, but one block away there is the Promenade. The hotel is really new, fresh and clean, the service is intentionally streamlined but overall it’s a really good value for the money.

Super Accommodating
We had a fantastic time. There was a problem with our luggage at the beginning. We were coming off of a cruise and didn't have a place to store our luggage. Sonder City Center was super accommodating and provided a place for us to store our luggage for almost 8 hours before we could officially check in. When we did l, the check-in process was seamless and super easy.
We loved the room too. Very comfortable and clean. It felt new yet retro. We loved it.

We stayed for the rave at the queen mary! Easy 10 min walk from the shuttle to the festival! The staff was very nice and welcoming! The restaurant attached to it has such good bagels omg! Definitely gonna stay here again with the little one to take her to the aquarium ❤️
The only issue was so many homeless people outside the hotel. But we felt safe inside so no need to worry!

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.

Simply fabulous!
Very secure building. Super clean. Retro modern. Staff was incredibly accommodating and friendly. The most comfortable beds ever. Parking garage 2.5 blocks away was inexpensive and very secure. Only a 3 minute walk. Lots of great dining nearby. I’ll definitely return when in LB.

Beautiful property in Dowtown Long Beach, Highly recommend but beware if you are not familar with the area. I lived there and knew what to expect. It's a little grimy with teeth. But inside the property I felt like I was in Palm Springs. Very well done. Furnishings where modern and beautiful. Bed and pillows are super comforatble.

Was again put in a ADA room even though I am not in need of those accommodations. When I inquired, I was told bc I booked through hotels.com I got the least desirable room. Which is kind of annoying. Also, another Sonder where the bathroom has no counter space.
