This is a cute small house that was perfect for 4 travelers. We had plenty of room to spread out and the house is clean and the kitchen is well-stocked. Note that there is no Keurig coffee maker but there is a regular coffee maker. The host was easy to communicate with and quick to respond to questions. The location is great. We went to Breakout Escape Rooms in Royal Oak and it was a lot of fun. Rock & Brews also was good for lunch (Sunday Happy Hour from 11-3). Thanks for the great stay!

We cooked delicious food and treats to celebrate, we appreciated the wide variety in the kitchen, it made cooking a breeze. The home was beautiful, clean and the perfect spot for game night! The hosts were so accommodating and friendly, they even had firewood for a cozy fire and smores! Highly recommended this property for your next getaway!

About the host

Hosted by Christine Hayden

Host profile image
Hello all and welcome!

Thank you for visiting my profile, I love traveling but always look forward to coming back home to Michigan. I am excited to be part of this community and to be able to help people feel right at home.

I am so excited to welcome you to beautiful Detroit. The city has the backbone and determination of the American manufacturing industry and also the charm and character of many European cities. I love hosting people in Motor City and showing all the great things the area offers. Detroit has become my home, and I hope to share it with you.

Why they chose this property

We spent several years in the area and it is always a joy to be back at our Royal Oak home. This home allows us to be central to all the main hubs in the area with quick freeway access along with being right next to Royal Oak and Clawson downtown. We love the local eateries and cafes being a quick drive and the walkable neighborhood.

This home is perfect for families visiting for business or pleasure. We would love for you to enjoy our home.

What makes this property unique

We love the cozy feel of this home and the quiet residential neighborhood. This home has allowed us to have the best of both worlds, being next to the city while also being able to have a hideaway from the hustle and bustle of the city.
