Good location, close to a lot of stuff downtown. Older building but the rooms were in good condition and clean. Everything worked as it should. The bathroom door latch would stick a little and had to rotate knob to make it close but wasn't a big deal. Staff was friendly and helpful. Parking lot was enclosed with a wall making access more restricted and safer. Accidentally left my car unlocked overnight and had no problems. I would stay there again.

For the price, it’s great!

For the price it’s amazing. Doesn’t look like much from the outside but on the inside it exceeded my expectations. Amazing location and comfy stay! Front desk was wonderful. I’d definitely stay here again!

Walking distance to major sports stadiums and cheap, with parking. Room was clean, but A/C was weak.

Got the job done

For what it is, it got the job done pretty well. It’s cheap, very close to dt, and an ok place to crash quickly. The bed was clean and comfortable, there were clean towels and hot water, and free cable tv. The AC worked great, and the minor water issue we had was resolved in no time. It sure beat the $400/night staying dt det.

Economical choice

Our check in was quick and friendly, and the owner was great. The room was clean, and tidy. Its fairy bare bones, 1 soap bar 1 roll of TP. The bed and pillows aren't very comfortable, but i would stay again. It was a great price, and a reasonable walking distance to downtown. Upside, the property had a really friendly cat.

Clean but rundown

The hotel is clean and the people are friendly! But it is rundown! It is in a prime location! We wanted to be in a place with walking distance and for one night! If I can get that deal somewhere else I would take it! But it is safe and I love the parking lot!

8/10 Very good

This hotel was very convenient to Little Caesars Arena. There is free parking at the hotel. The unit was clean, but unit needs updating with its bed linens. We had only one pillow and the quilt was on the light side. The unit had a microwave and a mini fridge. There was a coffee maker , but no coffee or glasses for the coffee. The tv didn’t work as it needed to be specifically programmed to get any stations and there were no instructions as to how to do it. The lady at the desk was very friendly and helpful in letting us know how to get to the arena. I would stay again for an overnight stay as it was reasonably priced.

Our honest review.

The good: We were allowed to check in early, which was nice. The beds were comfortable. The woman at the check-in desk was nice. The bad: When we pulled in the lot, there was someone working on a car - with parts strewn about on the ground. There was no soap in the room - or cups. The water was warm only - no cold water. (We got back late from a concert, so it was too late to ask staff about these things.) No nightstand by beds. Red stains/spots on wall near bed. The bathroom door doesn’t close. There was a woman sitting a few doors down from our room on the second floor - for hours. (Kind of odd that staff wouldn’t ask her to leave.) Not trying to be mean here. Just giving input. The cost was not cheap, either.

Liked the fact it was with in walking distance of anything you need. We felt safe walking day time or night. It was not the fanciest motel but it served its purpose for what we needed. Would definitely stay again if we go back to that area.
