Sharita, Oct 2021

This was the worst experience ever. Fruit was molded. Sink and toilet were stopped. Requests to clean the room went unanswered and then half-completed. Management was rude. Valet was missing.

Pros. The room exceeded expectations! My bed was very comfortable. We are also able to check in much earlier than 3, which fit our schedule nicely.

Cons. I loved my whole experience.

Pros. rooms were gorgeous, nice staff, warm cookies at check-in

Cons. the bill reflected their rate, and not the rate agreed through the site. Almost cost $350 more had I not checked. The front desk corrected, but not thoroughly.

Pros. The valet guys were super polite and awesome, asked me how my stay was and everything.

Cons. Never brought us toilet paper, towels, or pillows. Had to call them 3 times if I needed anything because they would just never show up. Front desk lady was so rude, didn't even take my complaints into consideration. I come to Detriot every weekend for work and last week I stayed at a $60 a night hotel that had WAY BETTER service than this $200 a night hotel! Don't waste your money! I wish I could get mine back after how these people treated us! OH I shouldn't forget that on our last day when we called the luggage cart up the lady made my 9 month pregnant friend roll it down and put the luggage in the car without helping her at all! I will NEVER come back here!

Pros. We were in town for a national conference just a few blocks away at the Cobo Center. Upon check-in the staff was super friendly and helpful. They even gave us a warm cookie. We were close to the stadiums, food places and downtown. The room was massive! The beds were in a seperate closed off area, so people could congregate in the sitting area if needed. Definitely worth the month compared to other hotels around the area.

Cons. Having to pay 30 dollars a night to park.

Pros. The double room suites are incredible! They're huge and feel very modern. This place and the staff are all very nice.

Cons. $15 to park next door at a lot that advertises $10 rates.
