There is a $30 charge for parking that is not mentioned on Expedia. The rooms are outdated. Our bathroom door was broken and did not close. The staff was wonderful and the location is great.

Great location! Easy walkability to U Michigan campus and nearby shops and businesses. Rooms were clean and standard, no fridge. The water pressure was extremely poor making showering a challenge. Breakfast was good.

Overall, one thing about Bell Tower Hotel is that its breakfast is quite mediocre. It would be fine in a more budget establishment, but this hotel aspires to be more a boutique hotel. It needs to hire a better chef.
