Sonder The Heid Philadelphia Reviews
Terrible acoustics
We stayed for 4 nights. Itโs a nice concept and a good looking industrial repurposing but itโs let down badly by awful noise issues. The walls are wafer thin and it feels like your neighbours are sitting on the end of your bed. The sound transfer

Had high hopes but very disappointed. The self service concepty is great as a concept but it requires that help musty be available if needed and that basic principles of accommodation be steadfast and fair. Wifi was promised yet not accessible for
Wonderful and cost-effective
The Heid was a wonderful base for our trip. It is central (about 10-15 minutes from the main centre) and easy to get to. The building is very cool and our two-bedroom apartment was absolutely huge! The place was very clean and well-appointed and the
Would stay again when in this area
Beautiful place, close to the Franklin music Hall and Reading Terminal. Staff very helpful, place clean, well furnished. Only complaint was the mattress was old & too soft, but new, good quality sheets. Some street noise but ear plugs provid

Good room, friendly staff, very loud neighbours
The amenities, room, staff were excellent. Location is fine, only 10 minutes from downtown on foot - the neighbourhood itself is quiet but has stores. Checking in and out was smooth. Luggage storage was very helpful. Why poor? Our bedroom backed on
Front desk jerk
The stay was great. The employees were wonderful with exception one. It was a Thursday morning 10/3/24. The big fella up front was a real jerk. Wasn't the greatest listener. Ended conversation with him quickly. He had the WORST cust rep ever
Nice stay
I was very happy with my stay at the Heid three years ago and feel the same after my most recent visit. Three years ago, my girlfriend and I were fortunate to get one of the top floor units that gave us a beautiful view of the city. This time, travel
Fantastic hotel
This was our first time staying with Sonder and we were very impressed. I liked the digital check in and digital concierge. All worked well and the online chat feature was very quick and resolved all queries / issues. The rooms were huge. It was gr

The battery on my door died and despite having an important call I needed to be on, I was locked out of my apartment for over an hour with no one who works for Sonder in or nearing the building. It took the help center 30 minutes to even get ahold of
Grant and the staff at Sonder The Heid were AMAZING.
They helped us out so much during our stay and the room was very impressive and enough space for the group that we had. Would definitely book again when I'm back in Philly!

Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Sonder The Heid Philadelphia at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Sonder The Heid Philadelphia page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* ๐ป @FulfilledThread16, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's bid.
* ๐ป @FulfilledThread16 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to ๐ป @FulfilledThread16 for any questions Peter may have as ๐ป @FulfilledThread16 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* ๐ป @FulfilledThread16 now uses their connections at Sonder The Heid Philadelphia to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If ๐ป @FulfilledThread16 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, ๐ป @FulfilledThread16 receives the $200 reward which is credited to ๐ป @FulfilledThread16's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Sonder The Heid Philadelphia!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
