Is There a Viable Alternative to Airbnb?
Sonder is making a strong move
I wrote recently about how I’d finally taken the plunge and booked a stay at a Sonder.
I’ve been staying at a Sonder in Alexandria, Virginia for the past three days now. I’m in the DC area for a work-related trip.
Here’s the bottom line:
My Sonder was cheaper than business class hotels and didn’t carry the fees of an Airbnb.
I check out tomorrow.
My review: I am 100% booking at Sonder when I return to DC for work in March.
Here are a couple more pics I took while I was here:
Most Sonders have not only a fully-stocked kitchen but also a washer/dryer.
This particular unit did not come with a washer/dryer, but I’m only here for a few days, so that wasn’t necessary.
Yes, there are Sonders in the DC area with washer/dryer units.
I feel like I have my own personal apartment — a place to call “home” instead of a hotel.
Everything I need for a stay is here.
And, as I said, I’ll be booking at Sonder again!
