It was a nice room jus wish they had a fridge and microwave
For a motel, this place is truly very nice. You can tell the room has been upgraded dramatically. Beautiful spacious shower, decor was fancy lol....looked like twinkling stars on the ceiling. Only reason I took away a star, is because the bed spread was obviously left from the original design...snatched it off the bed immediately, tho the room was immaculate. Pillows were as flat as pancakes. I'd stay there again fasho‼
This place is under new ownership and the place has new windows and structural improvements. Also the parking lot is well lit, i was not worried about my car. They also participate with project greenlight with the Detroit police. Thanks for the stay.Oh yea no bed bugs.thank God
The rooms are really nice , with a huge shower and see through window to look off into the room. Front desk receptionist was very kind and helpful. Prices vary
My area the room used to be horrible i would of never back in the day but the waybit is now is great all my chicks have fun when we go. For the price you cant beat it and the shower is amazing. People leaving bad reviews. Cause you probably broke the rules
Went a few days ago and I must admit it was different a good comfortable experience…I enjoyed myself and will be back, sooner that later
It's a bit out dated ,and could really use some vacuuming and shampooing and new blinds . The bathtub had a catcher in it .it was full of old hair and gross stuff .other than that it's quiet ,safe ,there are no homeless or drug addicts in the parking lot at night . The owners are very kind .which is why I gave this motel 4 stars .I didn't give it 5 because it needs a thorough clean. There are no bugs at this motel . That is huge . Rooms are very nice ,very big . Gas station near by fast food within walking distance .
Very luxurious, the amenities are endless. The valet is very professional, the indoor swimming pool is at the right temperature and the hot tubs are amazing. Also beautiful hookers and crack
