Spacious Detroit Retreat • Sleeps 16 • Parking

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're pleased to hear that your family had a good time overall and that you found the home clean and welcoming upon arrival. We appreciate your feedback and have already addressed the loose floor tiles you mentioned. We also apologize that a section of the grass near the parking area had not yet been completed by our landscaping team. While the front and main grounds are maintained on a regular schedule, that area was unfortunately missed prior to your stay, and we understand how that affected your first impression. As a historic heritage home, the property is subject to strict preservation guidelines, and many exterior and structural changes require an extensive approval process. We work hard to preserve its character while continually improving the guest experience wherever possible. Regarding the flies, we have a professional pest control program in place and the home was free of flies at check-in. During the summer months, they can quickly enter if exterior doors are left open, particularly in older homes that were not originally designed with modern screened entrances. Many of the features you mentioned, such as the steeper entry stairs and the bathroom configuration, reflect the original design of a century-old home. While we would certainly love to add additional full bathrooms, the existing layout limits what can be achieved without fundamentally altering the home's historic structure. We have instead focused on maximizing comfortable sleeping accommodations for larger families and groups while offering exceptional value compared with booking multiple hotel rooms. We also appreciate your note about the cutlery and will be adding additional steak knives to better accommodate larger groups. Thank you again for your thoughtful comments. Guest feedback helps us continue improving, and we're glad your family created wonderful memories together during your stay.
