Sonder the Gallier

The place was very nice and large. The apartment is not noise proof at all. The sound coming from the hall outside felt like it was inside the apartment. At 3:30 in the nothing someone was emptying the garbage and it woke everyone up. The sound from people walking in the apartment above us was also an issue since they were still up past 1am. Loved the tall ceilings and convenience to French quarter...1 block from Bourbon Street. 2 washrooms was a plus too. Overall a nice place but not noise proof.

Unit was clean and very spacious. Excellent price. Many are complaining about no windows but they’re just covered by a screen. There is still light.

We stayed in Unit 202 which is 4 bedroom, 2 bath. The space was perfect for four couples. The location was ideal as it was a half a block to get on the St Charles trolley and a block off Canal St. There is lots of activity on the block at all hours of the day and night. There are restaurants next door that have trash and employees outside often so if you're looking for a clean hotel experience this might not be the place for you. But if you're looking for a great space, close to transportation with the New Orleans vibe this one might be for you. We did have two issues. The first was there was only three hand towels/washrags for 7 of us. I did use the app and they brought two more sets which we made due with. The second was an alarm going off each morning in the apartment across the hall. Again I reported via the App and it was turned off by the time we returned. Customer service was good.

Ideal location, a spacious property with good facilities

It’s was a clean, and in a very good location , I felt safe Everything was good, probably the only thing is making sure you have everything you need to stay there, also in the master bedroom I couldn’t cut on the lights without the fan, and in one of the bathrooms there is nowhere to put your clothes or toiletries

Where do I begin? Great location….That’s It!!! We were given units 101 and 201 and neither were in typical Sonder condition. As a frequent flyer of Sonder I can say the Gallier first and second floors units are NOT up to any hotel standard. Let’s start with there are no windows. Complete darkness especially when the entire second floor hall had no lights and the 101 unit had light bulbs blown. The frig in unit 101 didn’t work, the dishwasher in 201 leaked and ran all over the floor. Lucky for us the floors are unfinished concrete. Yup, concrete and no carpet. The one area rug in the living room was filthy. The walls are concrete as well with drilled holes throughout which looks like both units were not finished renovation before renting. None of the bedrooms have closets. Some only have one night stand. There is absolutely no place to store clothes or luggage. The bathrooms have towel racks that fell off the walls and the sinks are so small you can barely put a cup for rinsing on it. There is no storage in the bathroom so prepare to live out of your suitcase. After 5 calls and two nights to get lights and a working frig…they finally agreed to move us to the third floor in unit 301. NIGHT and DAY difference. Windows, rugs, wood floors, dining area to eat…and closets! Very nice! I recommend that the Gallier units 101 and 201 be renovated again. If there’s a fire there is no way to get out or call for help in those units . One way in with two additions doors before an actual exit doesn’t seem safe to be. If you can’t rent the 3rd or 4th floor units stay at the Jung. They are absolutely wonderful!
