The gym was closed due to a room flooding, we had no backup toilet paper for a room with 5 guests, and shampoo was completely empty. Breakfast downstairs at Motor City Kitchen was great! The parfait was out of this world.

Not a fun experience…

Terrible experience for a family. The room was dirty clothes left on the pullout couch from previous guest, dirty floors/left garbage, sink smelled of mildew, torn shower curtain, no garbage bags in dirty cans, thermostat was broke 80 degrees in the room (called to report and they said we would have to wait till morning), no bedding for pull out coach. Restaurant was super slow. Only positive the kids got a cookie at check-in. This was probably the worst travel experience we have ever had.

Elegant Comfort

I came in town for the Republican state convention. Everyone from the front desk, to concierge, housekeeping, valet parking, and the little snack shop were excellent. My room was absolutely beautiful. The shower was fantastic, I loved the height of the showerhead. The bedding was upscale, the pillows were perfect and the bed was so comfortable, I wish I would have climbed in sooner. I live 2 1/2 hours away, and if I wanted to stay someplace to get out of town, I would come down to stay at your hotel. It was absolutely beautiful, thank you so much.

Overall our stay was lovely, but valet parking was Terrible!!! We used the WR code to notify we were checking out, 15min later as we approached thr lobby we received a text saying it would be 30 minutes until our vehicle was ready. After waiting 20 my husband approached the valet as they were returning car and asked if we could have our keys he’s go himself to which the valet said she hadn’t clocked in yet and couldn’t help him (9:50 on a Sunday morning). It alone was enough to turn me off completely, especially as I had prepaid $44 for valet and could have paid $32 and parked across the street ourselves
