Solo Woman for 4 nights

I recently stayed four nights at the Inn. I had a great time and was satisfied with the experience. The staff and room were great. I did not feel uncomfortable. The suggestions that were made for entertainment and meals were great. I enjoyed the shuttle (great drivers and courteous) to places around town. The breakfast each morning was wonderful--fruit, cereals, breads, waffles, juice, teas, coffee, yogurt, etc. My room was on the top floor by way of stairs. I felt like I was at home--had a cookie and bottle of water waiting for me when I arrived! The bed was comfortable. The linens were clean. Someone came each day to clean or straighten my room. I loved the homey atmosphere. The rooms were stocked with the same things you find in hotels-shampoo, lotion, shower cap, soaps, etc. I would highly recommend this place for a vacation/business/get away. If you have trouble with stairs, I would suggest that you tell them so that your room could be on the bottom floor or one of the carriage houses rooms. I would love for my family to stay there and take in some of the sports/museums.
Detroit Treasure

I stayed at the Inn on Ferry Street for a short, one-night stay. It is a charming, historic place comprised of several Victorian homes. It is a hidden gem for Detroit AND the service is excellent. The rooms are large and you have the modern conveniences of free wireless. I enjoyed the B&B feel. After the great breakfast, I stayed to read by the fireplace. The ambiance was very relaxing and I wish I could have stayed longer. The free parking was a bonus.
The Inn is a hidden gem for Detroit. It's on a quiet, residential street and is right around the corner from the Detroit Institute of Arts and other cultural attractions. The nightlight of downtown is a short drive away. I will definitely come back!
Inn on Ferry Street

We only stayed one night but really enjoyed it. We were in Detroit for the Final Four and even though MSU lost in the final game the Inn on Ferry Street helped soften the blow. Our room had a fireplace and was really comfortable. We enjoyed our breakfast and I would stay here again.
The Inn was a unique treat for Detroit!

My husband I had a quick "getaway" weekend stay at the Inn. The staff was wonderful--very responsive and helpful. The breakfast buffet was ample and delicious. The room was quaint and clean. When we notified the desk that the room was cold, they immediately increased the heat and provided a space heater. (The weather changed from relatively warm to snow that weekend.) Havng HBO/Showtime options would have been appreciated--standard fare now at "better" hotels.
Our room was on the third floor--so it was a little workout without an elevator--but fortunately we are both looking to improve our health on a daily basis!
Try to avoid. No Dowtown

This hotel is in midtown, nor in dowtown, as someone says. There's nothing around and you need a car for everything. Their suttle is always busy. And only serves some miles. And the area is very dangerous, near Woodward Avenue. Altough the hotel is very nice and the street, too, the near location is realy horrible and dangerous.
