We stayed here mid-summer and found it to be a quiet little neighborhood of houses nearby some of our favorite areas north of Detroit. It was a cozy, peaceful place to rest after a long day of walking around in Bloomfield Hills and Birmingham. Everything was neat and clean.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, listing accuracy
Disliked: Location
Was not our best experience. The neighborhood is a bit scary. Druggies at the nearby park. There were only 2 towels and a few washcloths for our whole family. We asked for and were promised more towels promptly but they never showed up in our 3 days. We heard rodents in the ceiling and walls. Closets messy, things just thrown in. Will not stay again.

I'm really sorry to hear that your stay didn’t meet expectations. We take feedback seriously and are already looking into the concerns you raised. The neighborhood typically feels safe for most of our guests, but I understand experiences can vary, and I'm sorry you felt uncomfortable.
Regarding the towels and housekeeping, I apologize for the oversight—we clearly dropped the ball there, and that’s not the level of service we aim to provide. We're also addressing the storage and maintenance issues you mentioned to ensure future guests have a much better experience.
Thank you again for your feedback—it helps us improve.
