The staff here are very nice and helpful! They explained everything when I checked in (billing, checkout, Wi-Fi, amenities, breakfast) and I even got a glass of champagne! The rooms are very clean. I stayed during the weekday and it was quiet. The location is perfect from the mall and Michigan’s campus. I’d definitely recommend.
I have had a wonderful experience here multiple times now. Everyone is really wonderful and caring. This trip, the manager who checked us in was awful, he actually made me say out loud that we would not come back. Everyone else is amazing. He seemed unhappy that I had kids, he was rude, and

Disliked: Cleanliness
Incorrectly markets itself to be high-end
Criminally overpriced by at least 30%. Stayed 5 nights. Room cleanliness was poor and needed updates. 3-inch gap between the door and the floor, so I had to put a towel down at night. Don’t be fooled by the complementary wine offered during check in —which seemed to only be offered to some.
