Liked: Location
The location is absolutely perfect! Slightly away from downtown Laguna, you g t the peace and quiet without all of the downtown crowd congestion. Staff were friendly and accommodating- we did have a room issue, but the property manager Hayden went the extra mile to make sure that we were satisfied and corrected the problem himself.

Great location. Basic accommodations

Great locarion downtown ans walkable distance to the beach and restaurants. Nice pool and hot tub as well as a rood top deck. Onsite parking which they charge for. The room itself is incredibly basic. Lack of decor and uncomfortable bed. But for the price and location it os a good deal

La Ensenada

A quick get away that felt so comfortable. Easy check-in & out. All the amenities and cleanliness was great. Having a pool as an alternative to the beach was great as well. The location was ideal too. Taking a free trolley into Laguna makes it unnecessary to rent a vehicle especially when the summer traffic can be annoying. Thank you!

Not the best stay, but not the worst

While the staff was very nice and helpful, I was disappointed by my room for many small reasons that added up. It was very cold and damp, to the point that the linens didn’t even feel dry. Whenever I tried to turn on the heat it set off the smoke detector (which was really unpleasant in the middle of the night/early morning). Cleanliness was also an issue; besides some trash from the previous guest, there was a constant puddle from the AC right outside the door, which meant tracking in dirt/suitcases whenever I came in. Location is nice; not tons to do in the immediate area, but it’s a short walk to the beach.

Clean Rooms

We chose Sonder La Ensenada for the price and modern style of the rooms. It was clean and we loved the toiletries provided. The rest of the hotel lacked. It felt a little dated and the pool is way smaller than shown as advertised. The outside def needs a lighter paint color and taller potted trees on the roof in between the lovely seating they have up there. Would i stay again? Yes. Its located in the middle of two locations we frequented. Montage Beach and the best grocery - Ralphs as well as downtown Laguna where all the restaurants are located. There was street parking as well as the garage below but God help you in finding your way back to your car. Super confusing hallways where you can come into the hotel but finding your way back is a maze.

Came down for a family function. Our room was exactly as advertised and our rate was very good. Perfectly situated for us. We rented a car but could have done without it. Overall, a very satisfactory stay.

A great new option!

Sonder has become a great new option in Laguna / Irvine, refreshing an older property. It could still use a little more TLC, like a second coat of paint in common areas, but overall I was delighted. Clean and well appointed room, comfortable bed, easy access that felt secure, free Wi-Fi, and good communication with the property.
