We stayed here mid-summer and found it to be a quiet little neighborhood of houses nearby some of our favorite areas north of Detroit. It was a cozy, peaceful place to rest after a long day of walking around in Bloomfield Hills and Birmingham. Everything was neat and clean.
Clean, updated home. Easy location not far from Great Lakes Crossing I came for the shopping and some peace and quiet.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, listing accuracy
Disliked: Location
Was not our best experience. The neighborhood is a bit scary. Druggies at the nearby park. There were only 2 towels and a few washcloths for our whole family. We asked for and were promised more towels promptly but they never showed up in our 3 days. We heard rodents in the ceiling and walls. Closets messy, things just thrown in. Will not stay again.
