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

We stayed for 7 days in September — our first time in the States and NYC. Couldn’t find a good price in Manhattan, so we tried this aparthotel. I was a bit worried at first, but honestly, I’m so glad we chose this over Manhattan.||The location is amazing: just steps from the subway, 5–10 minutes into Manhattan. The area was quiet and clean, with a 24/7 retro diner right across (we even caught some filming!), a bodega nearby, plenty of coffee shops, Target/Trader Joe’s, and halal carts within walking distance. Perfect for first-timers or anyone wanting convenience. Prices can rise during peak periods, but we got a great deal.||As an aparthotel, we didn’t really encounter staff in the building, but we noticed someone guarding the reception downstairs at all times if needed.

Good stay in Sonder LIC, however I do think that it is quite expensive for the relatively simple apartment. I would suggest to add minor things like more overhead lights, hooks and racks in the bathroom, clothes racks, among others, to make a long-term stay more homey. The location is very good as it is in front of Court Square Station (with several lines going into Manhattan and Queens) and a very busy Trader Joe’s. There is no in-house laundry so folks staying for a while would have to look for another place to do their washing. As the other reviews say, it can also be quite loud depending on where your room is located. I had some issues with the construction along Jackson Ave., the train, and the music from the bars that Sonder shares the building with. But they do provide earplugs s

initially booked this on expedia for upcoming trip because the location and price was a great deal (plus it has good reviews both in google and expedia). then after reserving it, they sent me an email that they will send another email for verification so i can receive my access for my booking, waited and message them and got no response. messaged expedia customer support to check for me as well. they tried to reach out multiple times and got no response as well. expedia customer support advise me to wait as they made a report and assured me i can also cancel anytime if i wish to. did more researching (which i shouldve done more earlier by filtering the reviews by most recent but trusted the good reviews and expedia listing) and it says that this place is no longer operating as off november

I booked this hotel in February for a stay in September 2026. Last week I received a phone call in the middle of the night from the hotel explaining that they would not be able to accommodate my reservation and that I should be prepared to find alternative accommodation. I never received any formal cancellation notice from the hotel or Expedia. After this call, I contacted Expedia, who confirmed that the hotel is currently undergoing renovations and advised that I would need to cancel my booking. As a result, I felt I had no choice but to cancel the reservation. I am now looking for alternative accommodation, but prices for comparable hotels are now at least double what I originally paid.

I stayed at Sonder Court Square LIC a few weeks ago for work. It's in a very convenient location right down the street from the subway and within walking distance of various markets and shops. I appreciated that! Check in, however, was a challenge. I arrived right at check in time (with luggage and groceries for my stay, no less) and was told that my room wasn't ready yet. I told them the front desk attendants that this was unacceptable and that I had luggage and groceries with me and that I wanted to rest. They told me that they could offer me a late checkout for the trouble and I declined this offer. They told me that I could put my groceries in the staff fridge and go hang out in the area and that they would let me know when my room was ready. I told them that I would not be putting my
