If your going to spend the $250.00 for a room like this place cost us, at least go down the street to the Mariott. When we arrived, the firefighters were there rescuing a lady from the eleavator since there was extensive problems with all elevators. A hotel chaperone had to accompany you by the end of the day. There were... more

We made advanced reservations at this hotel. When we called them to reconfirm the arrival time, we heard ON AN ANSWERING MACHINE, that the hotel was closed due to renovations. We had a confirmation number for our reservation date of October 3, 2009, but no one has ever returned a call to even let us know that they were closed.... more

I stayed at this hotel and to be honest with you, I was concerned due to the reveiws. My friend and I came to go to the Chene Park Concert and the hotel was great. The restaurant was open during my stay, the a/c was freezing me to death... The employees were kind. We know that all companies have their... more

In all my travels over 300 hotel stays, I have never had an experience like this. The pictures do not reflect the condition of the hotel, dirty, partly working. We had recieved a room bathroom never cleaned, got attitude for asking it to be done. No hot water given attitude told nothing they can do. No restruant or bar like... more

This hotel symbolizes Detroit in general: could be world-class, but ruined by neglect, vandalism, and indifference. Came here for Detroit Electronic Music Festival and stayed for 3 nights and 4 days. Upon arrival, we were informed that the air conditioning system in the building was broken and asked if we would like to take a look at our room and... more

I walked into the lobby and 100 others waited to check in. The A/C wasn’t working in the hotel at all, some had no electricity and no running water. It was hotter than Haites in the lobby. There only appeared to be 3 people working in the hotel TOTAL. It took 3 hours before somebody came out and told us... more

Have stayed in worse places, but don't even think about eating their breakfast buffet. Forget the "lap" pool (it's teeny), and the attached jacuzzi was ice cold. The place was a bit run-down. The room attendant was exceptional and cheerful to boot; most of the front desk personnel were a bit cold. This establishment will soon change its name for... more
