Sonder Gabriel Richard

Very convenient location, beautiful space and view on the city center. My room even had a washer and dryer. Easy self check-in system.

Apartment was great, very specious and lovely decorated, having everything you need to make your stay comfortable.  However reception pretty untidy, tired looking, and messy. staff never there at the desk. I left my luggage so was pretty worried all day and of course when I came no one was at the desk, but luggage was there and nothing missing. Outside of the hotel is served soup kitchen for homeless so pretty scary to get into hotel itself.

Great place downtown. Located well next to the bus station (useful for Henry Ford musem or Airport) and close to pubs/restaurants/supermarket.

the gym was so underwhelming but everything else was great!

My wife and I stayed here for the Detroit Free Press Marathon, and the location was right on point. The 9 mile mark was right outside of the hotel. We had a studio on the 9th floor which wasn't bad. The only problem we had with the room was there was a plate that wasn't fully clean, but everything else was fine. To note, the shower is very, very small. There isn't much room to move around in it. After reading the reviews of about Sonder I had some mixed feelings before staying. Upon arrival it is just as people have said outside, there are a lot of homeless people around the area. There is a parking lot across the street with in and out privileges which was good. One thing that we did notice is that there weren't many restaurant choices close but we made do. Overall, it was a good stay for the price and we will likely stay there again.

Just say no. I arrived at midnight and they didn't send me the code to get in beforehand (they even confirmed this was their mistake), and I didn't get into my room until after 3am. Once inside, the place was a bit undercleaned (hair in the bathroom and such), run down, and appliances breaking. I reached out about a refund and was turned down. Checked out after one night anyways. Gross. Avoid this place, no idea why it has decent reviews.

I had a good experience at the Sonder by Marriott Bonvoy Gabriel Richard Apartments in Downtown Detroit. The location is good for travel —right next to the Michigan Station on the Detroit People Mover, making it easy to get around the city. Plus, it’s directly across the street from the Airport Express Coach, which was just $6 per journey when booked online. The apartment itself was clear, spacious, and fully equipped. Having a washer/dryer, fridge, and a cooker made it feel like a home away from home. Everything was modern, comfortable, and well-maintained. You’re within walking distance of Comerica Park, Ford Field, the waterfront, and the heart of downtown. And if you’re up for a short stroll, the Corktown area on Michigan Avenue offers a selection of bars and restaurants. It’s worth noting that the immediate area outside the building can feel a bit sketchy, and it’s a spot where homeless tend to gather. While this didn’t affect my stay or safety, it’s something to be aware of when arriving. Detroit certainly doesn’t feel like the safest city I’ve ever visited, but I found people to be friendly and experienced no problems during my stay.
