Lovely historic homes. Beautiful neighborhood but also very convenient (one short block) to the Q line and access to lots of Detroit sights, dining and sports venues. The room was perfect, the staff warmly welcoming and the breakfast was delicious, fresh and gracious. Even my 11 year-old traveling companion said, “If we come back to Detroit, we HAVE to stay here again!” It wasn’t just a place to stay, The Inn was part of our Detroit experience.

The Inn on Ferry Street was a convenient, historical place to stay. The breakfast every morning was great, with the staff being very friendly and accommodating. The room was clean, but the stains on the carpet floor and poor air conditioning on the top floor made it dissappointing. Loved the character of the historical buildings.

So much character in this place. My bathroom was beautifully tiled and updated. Some things about the room were a little worn out (window paint and carpet), but the character and warmth of the space outweigh any of that. The bed was very comfortable. I found the whole experience restful. And the air conditioning worked really well for an old building. Staff was also warm and welcoming.

After being on the road and out and about all day, settling in to the comfortable, clean bed was needed. The property actually consists of 3 buildings so leave the luggage in the car until after checking in. There may have been notice but there's no elevator so keep that in mind with luggage too. Quaint property within walking distance from DIA, Charles Wright, and Science Ctr. Not too far from the Q line either, if you dont want to drive downtown.
