8/10 Good
"Staff was excellent at every turn. Hotel was clean and relatively easy to explore Detroit from ( people mover, Q line and Uber). View of the river and Windsor was lovely. Several instances of facility maintenance. Bathroom shelf falling off and toilet running. As a decent price I would stay here again."
