"everything great"

Radisson Hotel Southfield-Detroit

8/10 Good

"It was very nice seeing it clean 👌 and very nice helpful service"

Hilton Garden Inn Detroit - Southfield, MI

"Clean and nice people"

Sonesta Select Detroit Novi

8/10 Good

"Very comfortable room. Definitely needs remodeling. Quiet and nice location. Staff was efficient and polite. Our disappointment was there was no restaurant, bar, coffee in the lobby, no microwave in the room, but there was one in the lobby. The microwave was not clean,so decided not to use it. I asked for an extra blanket and was told not available. The light on the ceiling in the room blinked from 2am to 3am, yet was covered with black tape. So not sure if it was internet, an alarm or a camera. But that was disturbing. And lastly, the pool was supposed to be heated however, was very cold."

"Great stay safe and clean with friendly staff"

Hyatt House Royal Oak/Birmingham

10/10 Excellent

"One look at the breakfast and we opted to walk over to First Watch instead. The hotel is great. The staff is awesome. The breakfast is lackluster. There’s also a nice-looking bar in the lobby that goes unused every evening, so for your nightcap walk over to Brown Iron Brewhouse where there are plenty of beers and ciders on tap, and where you get a discount when staying at the hotel (at the time of writing this review). We’ll be back here every time we come to town due to the location."

Quality Inn Auburn Hills - Detroit North

10/10 Excellent

"This was an excellent last minute value stay after previous lodging plans suddenly changed. The place is a bit dated and some areas could definitely use a deep clean, but there were some little things I noticed that made the overall stay well worth the price. I don’t normally write reviews but this place deserved one as it seemed to be owned/operated locally vs. being a corporate chain. For the most part, the basics were all covered. The bed was comfy, the sheets were clean and super soft. The water pressure in the shower was excellent, warm and steady; no random sprays, leaks, or sad dribbles. I thought the soap, shampoo and conditioner were good quality and didn’t feel as cheap or watered down as other popular hotel chains we’ve stayed at. The breakfast offering has to be one of the best things about this place. For one, they use real eggs (cooked over hard, not scrambled), not the premixed liquid or powdered egg products we’ve had elsewhere. The fried potatoes (diced) were breaded w some sort of seasoning that was delicious! They also had fresh fruit (bananas/apples) and Activia yogurt, which has live cultures of beneficial bacteria. I noticed this small difference after staying at a major hotel chain the night before and was disappointed to learn their yogurt didn’t contain any live cultures in the ingredients. They also had fresh bagels, strong & tasty coffee, and other usual breakfast items. To me, it was the little differences that made this place better than others."
