If you can look past the not so nice neighborhood this is, it is a very good hotel. The neighborhood is not so bad that you should be worried about the infamous Detroit crack houses but it was highly under construction when we were there and very dimly light at night, you will also have to pay a valet parking as there is no parking around. On the good side the rooms were great, we just got a king room and you might have thought it was a suite, very spacious room with large window, sofa, and a rather large bathroom as well. There was also a large kitchen with fridge, microwave and sink, and some appliances. The room was clean and looked like it had been recently remodeled. The hotel had a bar, fitness center, and pool non of which we used. There was a standard continental breakfast in the morning with fruit, pastries, cereal, and juice.
Overall the hotel itself was very nice, the staff were helpful in helping us get transportation, and determining where we wanted to go, and it is within walking distance of the Renaissance Center, though not the casinos.

Required Valet Parking is $17. I arrived late at night and the staff seemed almost proud of this expense that I was unaware of. I told them I did not see this price listed, and the attendant said that they didn't need to post it bc no one else did. It is now posted on the website. No shuttle to airport. Unfriendly staff, almost like they didn't want me there even the next morning.

If you have business in Down Town Detroit, this is the place to stay. Within walking distance of many of the major companies, resturants, sports arenas, casinos etc
