There was only 1 and 1/2 bathrooms. The beds where not very comfortable. The towles where dark in color so I did not use them because they did not seem fresh. There where no dishes in the house. The oven was so dirty that it could not be used.The location was nice. The location was the nicest thing about the house.

Whoever cleans this place should be fired. The shower had hair all over the wall near the shower head. There was a dirty sock on the floor by the radiator of one of the bedrooms. The bedroom clothes smelled like urine. There was a used lightbulb on the floor in one of the bedroom closets. There was a big puddle of water in the basement. The pot holders in the kitchen drawer were dirty. We found ants, silver fish and a centipede. The front door doesn’t work, so there is only one emergency exit door. The baseboards were covered in a thick layer of dust.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Nice enough. Check-in was simple. Stay was mid. The towels were kind of questionable and the home wasn’t thoroughly clean, with dirt and crumbs on floor and residues and leftover trash on surfaces, and was pretty light on utensils, etc. for a place that is supposed to house 5 (only had max. 4 forks). Basement smelled strongly of cigarettes. The bed and couches were comfortable and the TV and dining area was really nice. I don’t think this could sleep 8 without people needing to sleep on the couches so that’s something to consider. Good bones and good potential, but needs more attention.
Toothpaste left on sink
Eyelashes left on a lamp????

fine

solidly fine place to stay. basement was scary and smelled moldy. kitchen was dirty, everywhere was dusty, and we found some ants in our bed. it was big, good price, and good location. for a group of 6 late 20s friends was fine as a landing pad, but my mom would have hated it.

Fit the bill

One of the bedroom had all broken furniture. Neighborhood is not exactly where advertised. Game system advertised not there. Otherwise it served its purpose. It was close enough to our family. Enough space for each person. And all the amenities made it work. Will rent again after repairs are made.

I had seven people out of state, horrible experience

The host had a bed/futon listed in the description that was not there when we arrived, when I mentioned this to the host, I was dismissed. When the agent at VRBO mentioned it to the host, they claimed someone else set up this booking and they weren’t aware. I had to go buy an air mattress, sheets, a comforter and pillows for my guests to be comfortable. The towels and wash cloths had hair all over them, even thought the place was claimed to have been “cleaned” the washer and dryer is old so no bedding or sheets are washed properly and they were stained and dirty. I bought all new towels and wash cloths that were black and grey and left them at the property. The hosts refused to compensate after the listing falsely advertised a bed/futon being there and were extremely rude to me and the agents at VRBO who tried to help me.

Staying in the D

We are originally from the area and came into town for a much-needed visit with friends and for the Tigers opening day. The house met our needs. It was clean and possessed the quirky charm of an older home having been modernized to match modern expectations. Our biggest concern was that the property is NOT in University District as is advertised. It is several blocks away. We know University, having friends that live there, and are comfortable in the area. Even though we were just several blocks away, the vibe of a neighborhood can change in just a few blocks and we didn’t know the area. As it turned out, the neighborhood was fine. We had no issues. I’d recommend this property for people wanting to visit Detroit. We have three teenagers and the house comfortably accommodated all of us.

Great place for my friends to gather

My friends and I were looking for a larger place that could accommodate eight people. This one is listed as that and is certainly large enough for it. The house was clean and came with all the things you need for your stay. The only thing I really had an issue with was the number of beds. There were three twin beds, and one queen (I believe that was the size). The other places to sleep were on the couches. One couch was full-sized and the other was a love seat. I wouldn't call the love seat a great place to sleep unless you're a child. I happened to bring a cot a long and I'm glad I did because I wouldn't have had a place to truly lay down. That being said, I would rebook this house next year when we do our yearly get-together and just make sure to bring some extra cots. The room I slept in was big enough for a couple of extra beds.

The property was clean and presentable. Appliances were outdated the stove had an eye that was not working. The refrigerator door was broken. There were only three bedrooms but we made it work. The neighborhood was relatively safe and quiet. I would rent again.

Relaxing

Traveling with 4 teens can be tricky when finding a place to stay. This lovely house had a room for each teen to relax and watch tv, enough room for everyone, including 3 bathrooms, a family room and a dining room. Neighborhood is quiet with everything located right down the street. Highly recommend.
