The property was very clean, safe, and nice. The AC/heater unit was a little noisy ( like maybe something needs to be fixed?) You can hear other guests very clearly, but other than that, the place is very nice. Loved having a kitchen and living room. Made the stay very comfortable.

We loved the perfect size of the apartment! The only complaint in the cleanliness area is the floor seemed to be tracked on and the shower was a walk-in without the door, and there was water damage on the baseboard. It was located on a quiet, beautiful street. Finally, the next guests tried to enter the apartment an hour before out checkout time, but the issue was solved without conflict

For the very low nightly price, this is a full fledged 1 BR apt. For a regular traveler this is a great deal ! Place was immaculate and well furnished for a relatively long stay. Didn't realize it was pay to park but street parking was free and convenient. Would have been nice not additionally having to navigate the Sonder app to get the entry code (why not just send in secure email). Highly recommend this place as it's walking distance to music row!

Nice spot

Great stay, decent neighborhood. As others have mentioned, the shower leaks water into the floor which is quite annoying. Sorry, the queen sized bed mattress is in need of replacement as it has a bit of a dip on one side. The unit comes with everything you need, including bedding for the pull out couch. Kitchen was very convenient.

Great Stay

Visited Nashville for a friend's birthday and the group stayed in two units. Overall, our stay was great and the living space was comfortable and met all of our needs. If we visit Nashville in the future, we would choose to stay elsewhere only due to location. We prefer to walk to our destinations, but Soner 16th was not within walking distance of Broadway.

Good location but has cockroaches.

There were cockroaches the last morning before we left. The AC was locked to one temp. We were switched to a room without a king bed and that’s originally what we paid for. Good location. Spacious. Cockroaches ruined it for us since we had a crawling baby.

We have 3 young kids and there are drunk people everywhere, screaming and fighting… it’s been all night long. None of us are sleeping… this has been a total and complete nightmare. The walls and ceilings are too thin. This is not suitable for families whatsoever.

Perfect location to Belmont and downtown

Accessing the property and check in was confusing.The door code listed was incorrect. I had to call for help several times, but each time I was connected with a real person within a few minutes. Location was excellent. Accommodations were good. Kitchen very handy and well equipped. We had several meals in.

Cozy place within a good neighborhood

16 Sondar was in a great location, its own little neighborhood with restaurants and bars within walking distance. A short uber ride to Broadway. The apartment was very cozy. However there were a lot of ants in the bathroom and kitchen.

The property was great, nice location and clean. The only issue is that the metal bunk beds were squeaky at every move and no washer and dryer. Otherwise, it's a great place to stay.

Just Okay

Stayed the night to break up a long drive home after the holiday. The property is easy to find. Directions were easy as far as checking in and accessing the property and unit. The property looks nicer in photos than in person. The walls could use a session with a magic eraser. We lifted up the area rug corner in the bedroom and there was a ton of dust and dirt underneath. Not bad for a one night stay, but would not choose this property again.
