The hotel felt quite outdated overall and in need of an update to avoid noise, but it provided a decent stay with some positive aspects.

The dining experience was delightful with a variety of options, although a bit pricey. Overall, a mixed experience with room for improvement.
I stayed on the 8th floor which gave me a splendid view of the city. The rooms are quite spacious, and the bathroom is good with water not flowing out as in some hotels. However, the room was too small for our group.

The hotel is situated in a business center in Detroit Michigan, offering a safe and serene environment with security presence for guests’ safety.

I was impressed by the hotel's convenient location with a city view and excellent safety measures. The service was outstanding, with a pleasant and polite staff ensuring a delightful stay.

The hotel offers a variety of delicious dining options with friendly staff, but the rooms would benefit from more charging points and adapters. The service is exceptional, especially thanks to Florence, with a very welcoming atmosphere close to the airport. However, the location may not allow for easy city excursions on foot.
The hotel is conveniently located, close to town, and appears to be an upmarket Premier Inn. The rooms might be small for larger groups and show signs of not being used for a while, which could be improved. The service, however, goes above and beyond, with staff always ready to assist, including George, Lucy, Justus, Alice, Chef Ken, Paul, and Habakuk. The location is serene and accessible, albeit a bit isolated, like a 'no man's land. ' The dining experience was enjoyable with a good selection and efficient room service. Overall, the facilities are decent, but there are areas that could use some updating.
