All the staff were very welcoming, helpful and kind. We had a room close to the elevator that I requested. Parking was convenient. Beds were comfortable. View of the river was a nice surprise. The restaurant in the hotel was a great place to have a delicious breakfast before check out and the 15% off coupon from the front desk was appreciated. Would definitely consider staying here again

For some reason expected a hot tub was part of the pool facility, but must have confused multiple room listings. Didn't care for the pool technically being in a neighbouring hotel - and although the elevator signs list 3rd floor access, I could not find any, AND pool access requires check-in at the neighbouring hotel's desk for a keycard anyway. Pool and exercise facilities were in good condition, pool has a nice view (but no hot tub to lounge in and see the view feels like a lost opportunity :) Room has an "older building" feel - windows had some paint overspray and streaking. Otherwise all was in good condition and clean. _EXCELLENT_ view (14th floor panoramic view). Had to be a little cautious about admiring the view before dressing, other rooms visible! Bed was comfortable, choice of pillows was a nice touch.

Room was adequate. Big crack in right window of the room. As a result air in between the double plane glass and distorted the great view of the Detroit River and surrounding area. Disappointed in parking arrangements and charges to park indoors across the street from the hotel. Very tight parking spots. Have to walk across the street to get to and from hotel and parking area. Glad it isn't the winter time. It would be cold and slippery
