Small lobby. Hardly a "deluxe contenential breakfast" - juice milk cereal pastry coffee. Rooms above the lobby (indoor rooms) are nice. Bathroom is nice, but small. No pool or "extras" but price reflects that. Not as hard to find as others indicated... those darned MI left turns! Pretty quiet, but then again we were there during the week.

I live in the metro Detroit area, and would not want to stay at this hotel if I were visiting from out of town, due to safety concerns. There are many other hotels in Southfield that have not had the violence that this hotel has had, over the last few months and year. Tip: Google the name of this hotel... More

This was booked thru expedia and it was listed as a 3 star hotel. When we got there it did not appear to look like a 3 star hotel. But when we got into the room the room was much nicer than the outside appearance. Everything was just perfect. Slep well.

Don't let the photos fool you!!! This hotel was horrible! I felt very uncomfortable staying here, but I booked through hotels.com so I couldn't cancel & get my money back. We stayed in a room with a king sized bed. The room looked very old & the walls were horrible. There was a stinch in the room. It just didn't... More

I chose this place based on the customer reviews, what I found was completely opposite. The room smelled bad, like a casino gambling floor. The cont. breakfast is a joke, a small area that three people would have a hard time fitting in. check-in was a joke, the doors were locked for security and I had to check-in through a... More

Thank God we didn't bring our grandchildren into this room. Yes they have a beautiful granite bathroom with a jetted shower, but to have all of the tv channels above #36 be pornographic was quite disturbing. There was no warning, we were flipping through the channels and suddenly there were sexual acts being performed on tv. We kept flipping upward... More

The hotel was very good for the time that you are in it. The rooms were clean and new granite bathroom, with granite in the hallway. Water pressure and temp was good in the shower. Had some problem taking the right toad to get to it, but after one mistake, you learn and we did not do it again. On... More

Great room, granite bathroom - great shower. Great bed. Outside seemed a little shabby, but inside was totally different. My advice - make sure to check the map, very confusing to get to and we got totally turned around every time we returned to the Inn. Straight shot down 10 to Tiger stadium, just getting off and making way to... More

I was in town for a Lions game and because the local Hampton inn was booked I was refered to MG. I admit I was a little shakey when the cab driver pulled up. He himself had never been to this hotel. The outside does look a little dated and i wasn't comfortable that they had the side door open... More

Stayed at this locale during my second trip to Detroit since moving away. I had read several reviews about this motel....and I have to admit I was a little concerned about booking the place. However upon arriving my fears were eased. The staff was pleasant....check in was a breeze....and while I expected this to be a average motel it was... More
