Great location!
I stayed here to visit family, and the location was great. 15 minutes or under drive to every major attraction and in a very safe and clean area. The host was extremely responsive and the kitchen was well-equipped.
This is a nice property with several restaurants within a five minute walking distance. The owner was excellent with communication and responded promptly when needed.

Clean, comfy house in safe location
Great house- quiet, clean, in a respectful neighborhood ! close to a few little stores that are walkable but also a great location for driving around and seeing the sites in Detroit!
There is only one small bathroom so might be hard to have 2 or more couples.
I would stay again!

Great place
Although I was there for a family member in the Hospital, the location was close to the hospital, clean and orderly. The parking can be a little tight for my truck but I'm sure a car would be much easier. I will look to this for future stays to go enjoy all Detroit has to offer. Transportation to downtown is made very convenient with the Qline.
