Our first impression was not great. The photos of these rooms made them look fresh, updated, and very clean. We were disappointed to find the room to be older and in need of fresh paint and a deep cleaning (and we immediately found a cockroach... but that's a bit to be expected in NOLA so we don't blame Sonder). The key pads are finicky, but it was nice not to have to worry about a keycard! The mobile key never worked well for me. I wish I had seen this in reviews before, but if you want a balcony, stick to the courtyard/pool view! There is a VERY loud garbage or laundry pick up at the hotel across the street EARLY every morning. And then refrigerated trucks sit outside to unload at Napoleon House, which is also surprisingly loud. We loved having a balcony and expected partying noise, but now we know better and will never go for a street-view room in the French Quarter again. I will say though that the location is prime. We were so close to everything in the French Quarter, and it was easy to get to the Central Business and Garden Districts. It wasn't a bad stay, but the room was not what we expected based on the pictures. Just know that this is really more of an AirBnB experience than a hotel--not a bad thing, just good to know going in. The app was helpful, and there were plenty of amenities available for us. We recommend strolling down Chartres for French Truck Coffee in the morning (PJ's is closer, but FT was better) and grabbing drinks from Pierre Maspero's across the street. Oh, and the pool was lovely! The trap got caught up with leaves a lot though, and no one seemed to be coming by to clean. It's not heated, but your sore feet and sweaty bodies will be thankful for that. Overall, not sure we'd come back to this particular location, but willing to try Sonder again.
