I recently stayed at Sonder Chelsea Green and had mixed feelings about my experience. While the location was fantastic, being a short walk from various attractions, the customer service left much to be desired. I encountered issues with the booking process that were frustrating, and once on-site, I found the staff's attentiveness lacking, which diminished the otherwise enjoyable stay.

I found the room to be quite small and dark, making it difficult to get ready in the mornings. Although it was clean and equipped with essential amenities, it felt more like a standard single rather than a superior double, as advertised.
