Zohran Mamdani quoted Tupac Shakur when asked if he opposes the war in Iran:
"This war killed thousands of civilians, so yes, I strongly oppose it— Tupac said it decades ago, we always seem to have money for war but never to feed the poor."
@Marriott Sonder went bankrupt, and Marriott still hasn’t refunded my payment despite dropping it from their portfolio. This is bad faith at its worst.
Yet just a few blocks away, Sonder The Craftsman had availability — same operator, same area, same brand. Saying “system limitations” prevented rebooking is not honesty, it’s avoidance.
Sonder The Winfield (Marriott Bonvoy affiliate) abruptly closed on Oct 30, leaving many guests stranded.
Multiple public reviews confirm:
• “Reservation cancelled 1 week prior – rates now higher.” — Shamar Yee
• “Found out 2 days before flight – no refund.” — Molly Spence
Marriott marketed these stays under its loyalty brand but claims “no responsibility.”This isn’t about Sonder alone — it’s about Marriott’s duty of transparency to its guests.
Marriott Bonvoy guests received last-minute cancellations from Sonder The Winfield due to its sudden closure on Oct 30. No prior notice, no rebooking, no compensation.
• “Cancelled without fallback.” — Fred Dos Santos
• “Closed Oct 30 – Marriott offered no rebooking.” — Alec Mally
I faced the same unilateral cancellation and no compensation.
@MarriottBonvoy@SonderHotels — this is a systemic failure, not an isolated case.
