Good location, convenient to ball park and other dining locations. Very spacious apartment with nice views and good value for price. Downsides were the rug in the apartment was not super clean and the kitchen had very limited utensils for cooking. But, overall it was definitely worth the price for 2 BD apartment given the location.

Terrific location. Right next to the Rosa Parks Transportation hub. Take the Detroit People Mover just to get a feel for the downtown area. Then take the Q line to go see things. We walked down the street just to watch little league baseball and grab a beer.

The property is on the cusp of the downtown hotel district next to a transit center, which is great to get to the sporting events and other areas of downtown (free train) but crowded with folks waiting for buses, etc. Room was clean but furniture was not comfortable after a long day.

The studio set up was great and it was clearly newly renovated. However, the building was under construction and we weren't notified until late at night the day of our check in. Our eyes were red and itchy the entire time from all the dust that was everywhere, including what was stuck on the vents - which hadn't been cleaned. Getting an extension on our check out time was a hassle. The chat function in the app - our only means of communication kept giving me pre-fixed answers and not addressing the issue. It was frustrating!

Loved the location, right next to people mover- parking was not easy- they recommend a nearby lot but can be over crowded , no local walkable breakfast but I believe they were in process of opening one next door. There was usually a friendly staff member near front door. Great view of city ! Kitchenette was a bonus but they may wish to buy some newer pots/ pans as they were pretty beat up. Would definitely stay there again so overall good experience. One downfall was the 3 am fire alarm . I can’t do stairs and had to go down 9 flights of stairs . Everyone was unsure if it was a real fire alarm or not because it only went off once but there was no way to check with anyone at front desk and they had no way to communicate with guests ( no intercom or telephone service etc) . We all went down to find out it was due to workers next door working and not real.
