Congress Plaza Hotel
We did self park. Parking lot was right behind the hotel. The room and view were fine. Only issue was the tv, safe and refrigerator were all unplugged. We had to call maintenance. Also, the bathrooms appeared clean but there were several hairs in the shower. I hate seeing that.

Great location. Clean room. Friendly staff. Pool was kinda chilly. But that’s the only little criticism

The host was amazing and so caring. We were there for a family funeral and she gave us a beautiful sympathy card and flowers. Everyone had their own room which was great! Would definitely stay here again!

Sentral Michigan Avenue
Cleanliness needs to be much better. Housekeeping has to come back and clean multiple areas and change the linen. Curtain partly torn off but maintenance couldn’t fix it then. Views were nice.
