Pros: Located downtown, walking distance to shops, dining, public transport, etc.
Very attractively decorated (however style supersedes functionality to a fault). The decorating/design is top notch. Visually gorgeous.
Rooftop patio is cute. Didn’t use the grill.
Cute lobby/lounge area.
Small fridge in room.

As-needed extra towels and toiletries in the lobby.
Hassle free check-in.
Clean (other than the shower floor … )
Cons:
Parking almost non-existent unless you are lucky enough to get one of the extremely limited spots on the street out front, otherwise unsecured parking lots are a couple blocks away for $25/day. Construction in the area prevented us using the closer parking lot (not Sonder and Baker’s fault)
No elevator, and no help from the front desk, so be ready to carry whatever you’ve packed up a flight of stairs if you’re on the second floor. Watch your head!
Uncomfortable squeaky and sinky beds.
Lack of surfaces on which to set things (we ended up using the second sink as the vanity, as there is no counter in the bathroom for toiletries.) the foldout desk on the wall wasn’t sturdy enough to support much of anything so we just put bags on the floor. No biggie, just not ideal.
NOISY. Noisy noisy noisy. I love city noises, cars driving past, people talking, but this is a different level. The night time crowd outside isn’t Sonder the Baker’s responsibility, but when I say it will keep you awake I am not exaggerating. We actually had to call 911 one night because there was a woman having a psychotic episode out on the sidewalk across the street. I heard screaming, verbal fights, motorcyclists gunning their engines, all night long. The provided ear plugs and white noise machine at least show they’re aware of and trying to alleviate this issue but they really should replace the windows and add sound proofing. And please fix that slamming front door. Ugh. 😖
Shower floor needs a serious scrub. Gross. 🤢
Aircon unit is failing and is so loud. Moisture from the bathroom permeates the entire room. When we would return from our day out exploring San Diego, the entire room smelled like wet towels and mildewy shower floor. Extremely Unpleasant.
Final thoughts: I feel like this place photographs well, but staying in it is NOT what one expects from the gorgeous photos. Perhaps it’s geared more toward a single overnight or weekend visitor. We stayed for about 4 nights but almost left after the first one. There are much nicer hotels in the area for a slightly higher price. Opt for the higher price establishments in the area.
