    Front desk Service declining
    I have been staying in this hotel for several years. I love the hotel and the location. I love the bell staff, especially Corey and Anthony. Barbara who answers calls for the front desk is much to be desired. I had Iprefer point rewards to use and the site was malfunctioning. I called the hotel to ask how I could print out my certificate and she insisted it was my computer. It was not the issue. I had a 50.00 deposit held on my credit card and it had not been credited back so I called the hotel and got Barbara again. She told me 28.00 for valet would be taken out. i informed her Andre had stamped are ticket and are valet parking was free. She reported they do not give free parking and they have not done that for years. This is not true because I was there in March and had some maintenance issues in my room and received free valet parking for my 2 day stay. When I asked Barbara why my ticket was stamped for free parking. She responded I don't know. If she does not know what she is talking about, she needs to be placed in another position besides answering the phones.…

    BEST HOTEL EVER
    This is such a beautiful hotel, with beautiful staff, and a beautiful location. We arrived to a massive room with an even more amazing bathroom. We slept like kings and queens after the amazin lavendar spray that was left on our pillows. The next morning we walked over to GM and ran on the river walk a couple miles there and back. Which led to a very productive day. We arrived back and the staff again was nothing sort of amazing giving us tips on what else to do while in their lovely city. I HIGHERLY reccomend a lovely couples eveing here!…

    Best hotel in the heart of Greektown
    A unique layout in a grand hotel. Large rooms- a living space, separated bedroom space. Large spacious bathroom with lots of counter space. There are steps down to the bedroom. Quiet. What makes this hotel stand out is their superb service. Everyone from the front desk to housekeeping to the doormen, yes, doormen/valet are friendly and there to make your stay the best possible. Everyone is knowledgeable and helpful. There is valet parking for which you pay a parking fee of $25 but they will discount to $15 per night. There is a restaurant attached- Fishbones. …

    Love the location, would stay again
    You can't beat the location of this hotel. You can walk just about anywhere you want to be downtown, whether you're there for a game or to hit the casino. The rooms were a great size, we were there with a large group and we could comfortably gather in the room before we headed out. The staff was friendly and helpful. I would recommend using the valet parking just for convenience alone. Speedy service when I retrieved my vehicle at the end of my stay.…

    Good value. Friendly staff
    The suites were spacious, nicely appointed and clean. The location is within walking distance of many restaurants and sights. It’s across the street from a casino and there is a popular restaurant (Fishbones) in the hotel. All of the staff was friendly. We used the free shuttle bus often and the driver was very nice and personable. The price was much more reasonable than the other downtown all suite hotel (Doubletree). Caution. I was NOT there on a weekend but still I requested a quiet room on the quiet side of hotel because I am a light sleeper. I slept well. It is possible if we stayed on a weekend facing a noisy street sleep may have been much worse. If you are a light sleeper try to get a quiet room.…
