La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Detroit Metro Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Clean and helpful staff"

Best Western Greenfield Inn

8/10 Good

"We stayed for 2 nights, check in was quick and no issues. Room was cleaned and seemed well maintained. Beds were quite comfy, better than expected. Property and area was quiet, but there was stores and food places just a short drive away (5 mins if that) which was convenient since we don’t know the area. If we return to Detroit next year we would book here again."
