This place is SPECTACULAR! IT'S GORGEOUS! We had a hockey game to see on NYE. It was the closest place to book. These ARE GORGEOUS, VICTORIAN, MINI, MANSIONS! 1879 restorated fire places and staircase to DIE FOR! SPECTACULAR ARCHITECTURE!!! When you finally are done takeing in how stunning these homes are: the bed is so comfortable. I'm telling you, I'm a snob. I don't do the "economy in". 5 star is sometimes not good enough. These beds are all of the comfort I've ever needed in my life. Pillows and bedding 10/10. Couldn't ask for better. Staff were awesome. This place exceeded excellence in my book.

I couldn't even dream of a negative even if I tried. Our room ended up being haunted, it was AWESOME.

Beautifully restored mini-mansions of 1890s—a trip back in time. Perfectly clean and well-furnished. Nice staff. Reasonable parking. Perfect location for Detroit Institute of Fine Arts next door.

My only complaint was the coldness of my room. The thermostat read 61 (not sure it was even that warm)! There seemed no way to turn the thermostat up. When I called the front desk, staff came over immediately and left implying that the thermostat was now set at 70, as I had requested. But the temp did not change at all!!! Fortunately, I can sleep in my fleece, and there’s a duvet on the bed. But it’s totally unacceptable to not be able easily and obviously to reset the thermostat. This was the only flaw in what would have otherwise been an excellent stay. But temp is a big, fundamental deal.

The hotel is super well located in a quiet residential area just next to the Detroit Institute of Arts and the tram line.

The only problem we had was that Booking described one of the rooms we rented as having two beds. However, the hotel says the room does not have two beds, so I had to share a bed with my brother. That hasn't happened since 50 years, so we were out of practice. The hotel says the problem is with Booking who is not describing the room correctly. We were the customer with no option but to suffer the consequences, no alternative solution available. Only bad point of the stay !!!

Location and cost

The mattress did not have a protector on it, and the mattress was dirty and stained. The bathroom was not clean around the corners. I own my own Airbnb and I would never have left that room like that dust ruffle pulled halfway down the bed sheets and blankets, not right. I know that might be being picky. However, when I pay money to stay somewhere, I would expect at least those few things to be OK. Also, you only had one towel one hand towel, and one washcloth. And yes, we did tip our lady who was coming in after us to clean the room.

Great location - minutes walking distance from the DIA and other museums. Our room was in a restored Victorian mansion, so lots of old charm and details. There was a lounge area on the ground floor if you wanted to sit and relax. The bed was a double and it took up most of the room, but it was very comfortable. Some free and paid parking options on the street; otherwise, it cost $15 plus tax per night for hotel parking. Coffee and light breakfast options were set out in the building next door to us from 7-10 am. Coffee, toast, cereal, hard boiled eggs - enough to provide sustenance until lunch. Staff were friendly.

To be fair, we booked the “budget” room so we knew it would be small. In fact, the woman who checked us in made sure to mention this, probably so we would keep our expectations in check. The double room was at the top of 3 flights of stairs (no elevator). Not a lot of space to put bags and things. No fridge. There was a window air conditioner and the bed was right up against it (no headboard) so the air blew on whoever was on that side. It had also clearly been leaking so there were towels stuffed all around it. Shower took a while to heat up and the pressure was weak - likely due to old plumbing.

Very unique and had a calming vibe. The staff was outstanding! The bed and bedding was phenomenal!

A few extra towels would have been appreciated, if nothing else an extra hand towel. The room needed a 2nd trash can. Also an addition of a small table by the chair. We had requested extra pillows, that must have gotten lost in the message relay. Lastly when I booked the room l requesting a king size bed it showed me a particular room, which I thought that was the room I was booking. The room we received was a totally different room. The price was a bit high in addition to paying for parking. When asked about parking I didn’t realize the cost was per night.

The location was great-a short walk to museums, etc. Free breakfast had a lot more variety than listed on-line. And the staff was wonderful-we wanted a little history of the site and, wow, did we get it. Everything and everyone was great

On booking.com it was listed as a queen room, but had a king bed listed as well. I’m not sure it was even a queen bed. The light on the balcony stayed on all night-not a huge issue, but we couldn’t turn it off and even with shades, it shone in. The bathroom could have used another side table or something near the shower-not a lot of room to set anything on

The inn is made up of a series of elegant historic old mansions which are all very nice and atmospheric. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. The location is great, very convenient to many of the museums with nice restaurant options not far away. The continental breakfast did not have a very wide array of options nor was well-stocked so was the big disappointment. Also out first night dome of the younger guests made a lot of noise partying late at night. That was quieted after a while. Parking on premises is available for an extra fee.

See above!

When we checked in, our original room smelled "too clean" as if an excess of bleach had been used. We talked with Chris at the front desk, and he easily moved us to a new room in another house. The bed and bedding were very comfortable. I thought the breakfast was excellent with fruit, cinnamon rolls, eggs, and good coffee. The location and proximity to the Detroit Institute of Art were superb. Parking was easy. All-in-all, a great experience!

I love the old historical building. It’s beautiful and cozy. It has the old world charm and romance you’d expect which made me love it more. The continental breakfast is good and if you want something more hearty, hit up BasBlue next door (weekdays) which was yummy. The location is perfect for the QLine that is free and takes you through downtown. For those new to an old property, it’s squeaks and creaks which is something to get used to - not criticism, just a note.

The weekday rates are fair but I thought the weekend rate was high.
