Fun hotel if you want to stay in DTW
Great hotel. We've had dinner at the restaurant here twice so we were excited to stay here. Rooms are pretty quiet, especially for being in a large city. Beds/pillows very comfortable (and I'm fussy!). Staff was all very friendly. Rooms were large and the showers was great- more hotels need the temp handle on the wall opposite the shower head. Not quite as central to a lot of the places on Woodward but pretty short walk

We liked design of the room and bathroom as well as location. Could hear noises from chairs in other rooms due to no wall to wall carpeting. Staff could not share if there was recycling available and once no one picked up when we called for service. Bed was ok but felt a bit worn and too soft for my liking. Close to tram/train line for folks who are light sleepers.
