Room great for staying local attending Strand Theatre. Our room was missing soap at bathroom sink…receptionist gave us some. Found out in the morning we were also missing a coffee pot, but chose to just head out…informed desk when checking out.

Terrible. Smelly room that I asked to be cleaned in a 4 day stay and they didn't. Breakfast less than zero everything empty all the time, stale yesterday bread, weak coffee, dirty. The hotel is being used to house section eight and there's garbage outside doors in the hallway, people carrying on until all hours, they should not advertise as a normal business hotel because it's a mess.

This property definitely needs updating. Painter’s tape held the baseboards together in the hallways. Even our room number on the door was hand written on a piece of tape. The elevator was disgusting - looked it hadn’t been cleaned in a long time. Room showed wear but was clean. Ran out of coffee at Saturday breakfast. Won’t stay here again.

Nice little hotel. Could have used a good deep clean such as in the refrigerator and around baseboards. We were given the wrong room number that was already occupied but luckily the key didn't work so we had to go to the front to get that sorted out. I liked having the mini kitchen in the room. The breakfast was good. Beds were comfortable. Affordable stay. Overall a good experience.

By far one of the worst hotel stays I’ve experienced in years of travel. Do not be deceived by the photos. The rooms felt dirty and damp. I’m not sure how old the beds were, but when I pulled back the bedding to the mattress cover, I was horrified to see yellow stains and long strands of black hair. Fortunately, the top sheet was clean enough. The bed itself was far too soft for my comfort, leaving me with sleepless nights and back pain throughout my four-day stay. The bathroom is the biggest area of concern. The tub is dangerously slippery, though the front desk does provide sealed suction mats. The bathroom vent was also coated with visible dust. On the positive side, the lobby was pleasant, the staff friendly, and the complimentary breakfast average. I suspect renovations are underway, which may improve things, but it doesn’t excuse the lack of cleanliness. The fact that a cluster of black thread sat outside my door for days—something I initially mistook for a cockroach—along with other debris, proves the floor was never vacuumed. In summary: do not waste your money here. You can find far better accommodations for the same price.

Needs improvement

We were looking forward to this trip. We stay in this hotel every year for an event in Auburn Hills & this year may have been the last year we stay here. First let me begin with the girl that checked me in, was that personal phone call so important that you couldn’t call them back after you helped me? Never went over anything other than the extra $100, & nothing else. Good thing I’ve stayed there before. This I told the girl at check out…No shampoo, conditioner or shower gel in the containers on the wall. There were no small one in the room either. Good thing I bring my own. There was a lid from a cup visible from behind the dresser, no coffee pot in the room, & the dishwasher never stop running. She never wrote it down so I hope the next person that stays in 301 see this. Breakfast was over at 8:30 when it clearly states it’s over at 9:30 on weekdays. So we stopped down the road. My disappointment is with the lack of service, cleanliness & not being able to eat breakfast both mornings we stayed. We came down early & there was nothing or scraps to eat. Very disappointed.

The staff were wonderful. Breakfast was outstanding. It was healthy and had so many great options. We liked the little courtyard for walking. We didn't have enough shower towels in our room when we arrived but the staff gave it to us when we asked. They were also helpful in getting a playpen for my Goddaughter. The room was decently clean but in wall corners, bathroom edges and the bathtub there was visible dirt. Nothing major. Fridge shelves had water all over them as if it looked like it was defrosting from a previous incident. We would stay again. I stayed at another Sonesta and had a worse experience so I am happy that this one was much better. Thank you.

We had a two bedroom room. One of the rooms bathrooms had not been cleaned along with a few areas of the bedroom. When we let the staff know they sent in a person to clean it and all she did was empty the trash. The floor of the kitchen was also very sticky, and the countertop had not been wiped down in the kitchen. I get that they are understaffed, however they really need to do a better job of cleaning the rooms.

Clean and friendly staff!

The room was VERY clean. Nice comfy couch to watch TV in the sitting room area. The kitchen was also very clean. There is a hot breakfast buffet with eggs, meat, cereal, breads, yogurt and a pancake maker. The pancakes were tasty and hot! There is some updating to the hallway base going on but the hallway had no mess. The hotel could use some updating but overall I was very pleased. This is the second time I’ve stayed here (3 days at a time) and will stay here again next business trip.

The elevator on the property is in need of a deep clean, with stains on the door, the walls and the entry. Despite asking for body wash to be filled in the shower in my room, it was not during my 3-night stay, despite the front desk sharing that it was.

Try the Hampton!

We had a late check in after a concert and I made the mistake of doing a quick google review check prior to booking. Initially, the reviews looked to be great which was hard to find in that area. Upon check in, the receptionist gave us keys to a room that was either occupied or dirty. So we trudged back and she seemed annoyed that she had to give us another room. The elevator was filthy and premises did not look very clean at all. We got settled into our room and ready for bed. When I flushed the toliet it started overflowing and water was shooting out from the tank. It immediately started flooding the bathroom so we grabbed our belongings and ran downstairs to tell reception. I told her she may want to call for help ASAP, but she slowly took us to another room instead and that toliet was plugged as well. Yikes! At this point, my kids were tired, scared and I asked if we could simply get a refund and leave. She said no, it had already processed. So we finally got into a room with a working toliet near the previous room which had completely flooded by the time we walked back by it. The guest underneath us also had water coming thru the ceiling. The entire situation was so unprofessional and sketchy. I kept telling myself we only had to sleep there! I will say the manager was very friendly and apologetic the next morning, I do feel bad for her but I'm upset I was not allowed to be refunded. $140 for one night in this hole was absolutely crazy.

Terrible Experience

They overbooked our room and all rooms were booked on that day. So we had to go find another hotel. Front desk staff told us that we should try nearby hotel but did not help us to call to check availability or anything. The told us that it will be canceled once we canceled the reservation on hotels.com but ended up charging us even we did not stay. We had to drive back to the hotel on the next day to get our money back. We were lucky we were still nearby There is no compensation from them and they just blamed the hotels.com for the overbooking. On side note, we ended up staying at one of the Marriott hotel and explained why we ended up to the hotel and they told us that if it happened there, Marriott provide a room or if all rooms booked, they pays for the another hotel as compensation. From now on we will only stay Marita hotel. We use hotel.com often and never have had this problem other than this hotel. This was terrible experience we never have had before and are disappointed in their customer service.
