Lovely weekend exploring Detroit

We visited Detroit for a weekend getaway with friends, and the Blue House easily accommodated our group of 6 adults and an infant. The house was well decorated, spotless, and very comfortable and we enjoyed slow mornings drinking coffee, games and meals at the large dining table, and easy access to downtown Detroit. John and Inna were lovely hosts and very responsive. Thank you both for hosting us!

Great time.

Very clean and comfortable home. House had everything we needed towels, linen, kitchenware, etc. Owner was kind and reliable. Neighborhood isn't as quiet as you would like. Had trouble with key lock a few times during visit. Listing says it sleeps 8 but comfortably you can only sleep 6. Owner fixed all issues we had during stay immediately. Location very close to downtown central detroit. Me and my family had a great stay overall.

Exactly what we needed

This home is beautifully decorated, clean, and well maintained. We felt safe and secure and slept well in the comfortable beds. There are special touches throughout and a large dining table for family meals. We came to town to celebrate our grandson’s first birthday and their home could not accommodate all of us. This location was perfect and it was a beautiful space to relax at the end of the day. Our hosts were helpful and available immediately when we had difficulty with the lock and checked in to be sure we had everything we needed yet we had full privacy. We had safe, off street parking which we also appreciated. We will definitely book again when we visit Detroit! The city has so much to offer and we look forward to when we can enjoy it all again (with no pandemic!).

Nice Easy and Comfy

I had a good stay at the lil blue house very nice clean. My inly compliant is tht they need to add Tv’s to the bedrooms nd tht there is no washer and dryer. Out side of these two things nd the surrounding area being a lil on the ruff side its a Great stay.

Thanx so much for choosing us! We've always been on the face about TVs in bedrooms and ultimately decided it was best for the experience overall not to have them. Our place isn't 100% right for everyone - after all, what place is? We just thought you should know the exclusion wasn't an oversight. It was the result of much consideration both to our guests and our guest's guests. Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. We sincerely appreciate it and thank you again for choosing us. 😁

Detroit Blue House - worth the stay

First, the hosts Inna and Jon are lovely, conscientious owners who have transformed an older home in an established Detroit neighborhood into a comfy AND stunning place to stay while visiting the City. Inna and Jon have covered every little detail that make a stay away from home memorable and comfortable. The interior design is stunning. The beds and linens are super comfortable…and they’ve provided an array of things to do with your time in the house (when you return from your D town activities). A variety of books, games, and ample (again, comfortable!) seating and tables throughout…truly…a great home away from home experience. The kitchen is beautifully stocked for those who stay longer and want to prepare meals. Thank you for a wonderful experience, Inna and Jon! Stephanie & co.

Not very happy with our selection.

My daughter reserved the Home for her household and my household to connect while traveling from different parts of Texas. Both she & I were coming to spend time with family who reside in Michigan. It was communicated upon arrival that I had grown up in the Detroit area yet hadn't visited in six years. My brother and favorite cousin took the time to travel to us and as we brainstormed to pick an appropriate dining locating my husband was met by Jon and told we were gathering and it was not permissible. NEVER will I ever consider booking through them again, I find it very unreasonable that my two near & dear relatives that were considerate enough to travel to see us were even aware of an issue.

Hi Whitney and thank you for your note. We're very upfront about what we allow and do not allow in our home, and as frustrating as these intrusions it can be, it's important to note that we have these rules for everyone's safety. We are still under COVID protocols. This isn't an issue of our personal preference, but adherence to guidelines set by the networks we host through. We do not allow gatherings, parties, events, etc. ...so when several cars parked and we saw additional people entering we informed you of the rule. We are sorry you were caught off guard and even more sorry you took any offense.

Lovely place!

Our group loved our stay here! Beautiful space, comfortable beds, and very accommodating and kind hosts. Would recommend trying to bring your party in two cars so you can park all cars in the driveway, as the street parking is on a busy road and a wee bit dangerous. Home and neighborhood were otherwise exactly as described and overall we had a lovely stay. Beautif place!

Close to Eastown and Tiger stadium

Nice big table for Dinner and Brunch. TV easy to use, we played Jackbox games with our group. Loved the vintage feel of the house, beautiful Mirror over the fireplace original to the house. Parking accommodating. Store close by. While the neighborhood is upcoming, felt much safer than when I stayed in Baltimore. The home owners very nice and easy to talk to if anything was needed.
