I had a mixed experience during my stay at Sonder Arlo in Ottawa. The location was excellent and my room was clean, but I encountered several issues with service and amenities that left me disappointed. While I appreciated the easy check-in and some of the room features, the high price and a lack of basic necessities really impacted my overall experience. 😕

My Superior Studio was clean and in a great location, but the lack of necessities like coffee and slippers was unexpected. I felt that the amenities didn't meet my expectations for a hotel stay.

I had a frustrating experience with communication from the staff. The knock on my door regarding noise was unwarranted given that I wasn't playing loud music. Furthermore, the fire alarm and subsequent elevator failure created a stressful checkout experience.

I had a pretty cool stay at Sonder Arlo in Ottawa. The location was definitely a highlight since it was super close to everything. However, the heating system in my room was kinda noisy, which made it tough for me to get a good night's sleep.

I booked a Superior Studio, and I was blown away! It was really quiet and came with free earplugs, A/C, and a great kitchen that practically had all the essentials I needed. But, the sheets felt like a weird blend since they had polyester in them.

I enjoyed the location, as it was close to so many major attractions. However, I faced significant challenges during my stay, including poor communication from the front desk and an unexpected fire alarm that left me and my wife struggling to carry our belongings down six flights. Overall, the experience was marred by multiple inconveniences. 😔

The One-Bedroom Apartment with Balcony was comfortable, but I felt the bed was too small for two people. The air system was also problematic; it was either too cold or too hot, and the shower took ages to get hot water. The lack of sound insulation made things challenging, especially when the fire alarm went off.
Service

The service was disappointing overall due to poor communication. When I called to get help with our luggage after the fire alarm, I felt ignored as no one showed up to assist us.

My stay at Sonder Arlo was quite pleasant overall. The location is fantastic, just a short walk from major attractions, plus the room was spacious and equipped with everything I needed. However, the layout of the room was a bit odd, especially with the TV not facing the bed or sofa, and I was frustrated by the account verification process. 😅
