Great location for the Thanksgiving Day parade and Lions game. Walkable to all events and restaurants. Secure, clean, and reasonably priced.

Almost There...
Someone bouncing a basketball in the room next door until 11 PM...
And...your check-in process was more difficult than it had to be - with multiple failed attempts and many confusing emails...
The property is not fancy, the hallways and reception are sparse. The rooms are good size with kitchenette, table and bathroom area. It includes a washing machine and dryer. It was perfect for what we needed.

Room 210 overhead drain pipes from floors above were extremely loud in one of the two bedrooms making it almost unusable. Aside from that is was a nice place to stay

Fantastic accommodations at a great price point. Everything downtown is easily walkable from here. So many options all within 5 minutes. Fantastic trip.
My wife and I travel to Detroit quite a bit, but have never stayed here before. I think this will now be our go to place to stay! Such a cool concept - kitchen, laundry, just like an apartment. Area was great, lots of easily walkable shops, bars, restaurants.
Access to the room/unit was super easy. Really enjoyed the quality of these Sonder rooms

Couple, 4 night stay
Stayed 4 nights, queen room city view. We were overall pretty happy with this Sonder location. Areas that need improvement would be overall cleanness of room/common spaces in the hotel. We found quite a few places that needed a good wipe down in the room. I found we were able to justify a lot of these things though because of the price per night. The room had a lot of amenities you would need if you were planning on using the kitchen or in room laundry (dish washer pods, laundry pods). We parked across the street in the uncovered lot and were very pleased. Lot was tended to 24/7 with fence around, lot was quite busy. One of my main concerns was not having a lobby hostess for questions but I quickly realized I didn’t really need this person as I would ask the chat in app and within a few minutes a prompt response was given. Overall happy with Sonder Gabriel Richard Detroit.

Great stay
Lovely apartment, amazing view, great staff - and right in the heart of Downtown Detroit. Great transport connections (Q Line 6 min walk away, People Mover next door, Rosa Parks Transit Center across the street, and DAX bus to the airport across the street). Internet and amenities were great, and a very comfortable bed
This place was a pleasant surprise. It had all the amenities I needed. It was a beautiful place with beautiful views of the city. I am now a Sonder customer.
This place and the surrounding area did not look like the pictures online at all: the building is in rough shape, inside and out. The lobby is run down. Also, there is only ever one staff person there, who is nice and helpful but overworked. And you have to do everything through an app/phone. Also, my room was missing stuff and the washer was broken. They managed to fix things and give me credits, but I would not stay at one of these places again. You get what you pay for.
