Court Square Hotel Long Island City New York , Belvilla District 6 Formerly Sonder

Sleeping in the SKYBAR! Lack of staff was odd, but all the noise from the Skybar at night was frustrating! You are not given any warning about this. And only told your unit # until just before checking in. Impossible to avoid. I wish I’d known, I would have booked else where.

The location is excellent. 3 metro stations within easy walking distance of the property. Every thing worked as new. Lovely hot shower perfect after a day exploring NY. We cooked 1 meal and went to a local restarunt for 1 and a dinner for 1. It was summer and the Air Con worked well (slept with the quilt on). Bed was firm with pillow top. Recvd access codes for building and room 2 days before arrival. Plenty of car parking stations around but we managed to score a free street park(read the signs and watch for fire hydrants). Excellent value all around.

Largest room I’ve ever had in New York - full size refrigerator, space to work out in the room, a good table to work at. Super easy commute into midtown via the 7 and E. Check-in - once you access the code - is fine and there’s cleaning every day. Beware that the nightly thumping from the club next door can be heard despite the ear plugs they provide.

Very nice with a convenient bar upstairs

This place is really nice. I travel to NYC for work all the time and for the $$$ you cant beat it. You are basically getting a NYC apartment for the price of a hotel room. Parking on the street for free is a bit tricky but there is a garage one street over.

Great accomodation for a week long stay. The location is perfect with access to multiple subway trains into Manhattan and to JFK, as well as many options for food and drink. The room was clean and spacious, especially the bathroom. Great having access to kitchen facilities even though we didn't end up using it much. Staff was helpful and the complimentary luggage storage was appreciated!

Great location. Easy access to midtown. Roof top bar views were incredible. Room was clean. Only feedback for improvement was overly minimalist aesthetic. Lack of artwork and drapes gave it a cold feel.

The room was surprisingly big and very clean. I loved having a little kitchenette to cook and save money. Staff was extremely welcoming and willing to help. Even after check out they let me store my bags so it was really stress free. The windows in the room were big and had lots of natural light. I loved my stay i can’t wait to come back again

Surprised to find that there is a rooftop nightclub directly next to the 9th floor, making the night very loud. Similarly a loud morning from outside the 9th floor room, perhaps cleaners or something

The property was amazing, but the elevators were dirty.

Convenient location, very close to subway lines that take you to Manhattan in just a few minutes. Clean property with everything you need. A supermarket and diner are just a few steps away, with other restaurants nearby. The only downside: the nearby subway can be noisy — if you're a light sleeper, bring earplugs

Great location, clean accommodations and friendly helpful staff

Excellent clean room. Courteous staff

Great place to stay for a decent amount of time. I am coming to NYC on a regular basis, so this is ideal for me. The daily cleaning is great if you are staying for some time. A great stay

The area is super convenient and walkable, room was super clean and comfy. We enjoyed our stay greatly!

Very spacious and clean definitely recommend.

Nothing to say, other then extremely poor communication and terrible cleanliness overall.

In the room I was staying at the blanket would make me itch and one morning I woke up with a bug bite. Second, the bathroom was not that bad except the body gel and shampoo weren’t coming out. The best thing was the kitchen because you could cook and it was spacious plus it was really neat! I would recommend Sonder Apartment!

Good hotel. Enjoyed the independence it offered and being close to the metro was great - albeit i was fortunate enough not to be kept awake by the trains! The hotel does provide ear plugs and a background sound machine which is thoughtful. TV was limited, complicated to use. Some of the plugs were a bit hit & miss but once we worked out which ones did work, it wasnt a problem. We were also lucky enough to have an upper level room with a partial view of the Manhattan skyline, which was worth the price of admission on its own! A more than servicable hotel in a good location in Queens, just 2 stations from Grand Central, i'd definitely stay there again.

Prices absurd everywhere in NY currently. The room is clean and bright (4th floor). No reception but someone is sitting at the door. Kitchen is good. Heating system is very poor - like a cheap motel. Blower unit in the room doesn't get anywhere near the programmed temp. Basically on or off, and it takes a while to warm up. Clean bath. Diner nearby good moussaka but still $50 for one person with wine. Extremely fast into Manhattan on E train.

great stay at Sonder Court Square. very nice & spacious, comfortable bed, great shower pressure, centrally located. will stay again!

Probably the worst hotel we’ve stayed in for years. Unfortunately, the listing pictures of our “suite” didn’t mirror reality. The building has been built very poorly with exposed concrete and very limited sound insulation. It was really noisy 24/7, cars, trains, roadworks outside and drilling in the building. Negatives: pillows, lack of safe, lack of storage for clothes, no USB sockets, no armchair, very limited bathroom storage despite not being a small bathroom, no hooks to hang anything (clothes or towels), bathroom ventilation didn’t work so has to B leave the door open to see in the mirror, fewer teaspoons than any other cutlery, the full-length mirror was behind the door in the bathroom instead of in the room, and dirty windows. As soon as we arrived, I asked for a high room (we were on fourth floor) but was told I had to contact Expedia, although I had booked via hotels.com - all in all, à really depressing experience.

The apartment is very spacious and clean, and the beds are comfortable. Also the location is great...BUT ONE BIG ISSUE we had was with the noise and shaking from the subway train that passed by several times an hour all through the night. It was not pleasant trying to sleep through this, even with earplugs. My boyfriend was able to fall asleep only after having a lot of drinks. We would not stay here again. If you need your sleep and are a light sleeper I would not recommend staying here.

Great location so close to subway. You could get to Manhattan quickly, but in a much less crowded area. We liked the apartment feel of the property.

Extremely nice apartment, fantastic location close to the subway and eateries. Full fridge, kitchen and very spacious for a nyc hotel room. Only complaint was low water pressure and no hot water (most generous would be to describe it as tepid) on both days. Somewhat disappointing given that everything else is so nice; hopefully it’s a temporary thing and will be fixed soon. I would stay here and in Sonder flats again.

Striking distance from the city. Be aware, there is no front desk. However, communication is very good in terms of providing access to the building and service.

Great location, clean accommodations and friendly helpful staff

The property was a large studio apartment with kitchen, shower, Roku TV, and king bed. I was on the 6th floor facing the main street (Jackson St), but due to cold weather and closed windows, noise was not an issue. The location is directly across the street from te Court Square subway station (7, E, G trains) which was super convenient. Traders Joe's kitty corner from the apartment as is the Court Square Diner. Check-in and check-out were easy. Check-out, you just leave-no need to deal with the trash, towels, sheets, etc. I was able to get an earlier check-in by 90 mins for an extra $25 which was very helpful. Two issues. One was very minor. The mobile key did not work for me for some reason. Had to manually enter the code at the front door, elevator and room each time. A little annoying. The other issue frustrated me. The main kitchen light uses a smart sensor light switch which was programmed to turn on the lights every 20 mins. I left shortly after checking in and didn't make it back to the apartment the first night until after midnight. I went to bed and all of a sudden the lights turned on by themselves. I turned them off, then same thing happened 2 more times before I realized it was programmed that way. Why? Makes no sense. I did get on the Sonder app and started a chat. Someone replied about 5 mins later. I only got partially correct information. About 3:30am I was able to figure out how to set it so it would not turn back on. Very good stay otherwise.

Property was conveniently located and staff were friendly. The surrounding area was dirty and I struggled to receive a final bill as I booked through Expedia.

Nice and helpful staff👍

Too much auto email. I was trying to contact before i arrived but was never able to get through. However, once we arrived,.there was a staff person 24/7 to assist us. All the lobby staff were grest.

I always stay at Sonder Court Square whenever I visit NYC for work. It is located in the proximity of mid-town, while better for resting. The staff is accommodating whenever I need something. The inquiry is always resolved within half an hour. I cannot think of staying at properties other than here in NYC.

Miserable self-service check in and other functions required too much private info, filling out questionnaires, tech doesn’t work requiring long phone calls and procedures just to check in. Spending too much time on a cumbersome process to extend check out. Never again.

Great location next to the train to get downtown. We were a little worried about noise being so close but we couldn't hear the train at all inside the room. The diner across the street had good food and was charming.

We stayed in Long Island City to escape the Manhattan madness in the evenings, Sonder Court Square is in a great location, next to x4 subway lines, can be in Manhattan in 5mins on the 7 train. Near by there is a Target, Trader Joes, laundromat & lots of nice cafes. The room itself was nice, lots of room, comfortable bed. For longer stays having to pay $50 to get your room made up was disappointing, staying at Sonder is not cheap, for example we are spending the 2nd half of our trip in lower manhattan, the cost of our hotel is very similar & we get fresh towels & sheets everyday. Another issue was the noise from the trains & the air conditioning unit was very loud. Not a deal breaker though, if we were to come back to NY we would stay again, loved the slower pace of Long Island City, felt very safe.

Very nice room. Easy to access. Nice neighborhood.
