The hotel is great, except the breakfast. Sunday morning there wasn’t enough food. Most people didn’t get hot food. I thought maybe it was due to large volume of customers. But then I saw the kitchen crew closed the kitchen area a few minutes before the schedule while people were still coming to get bagels or toasts. I realized they didn’t care. Monday morning it was similar, not enough food,until later. Tuesday morning it was normal. I would rate the place 5 star if it wasn’t the breakfast issues.

Great stay in Ann Arbor

The hotels lobby was modern and updated. Great small gym and appreciated onsite laundry. Room was comfortable and updated too. Only glitch was some usb outlets not working properly. I would stay again. Also highly recommend Zingerman”s coffee shop and bread shop less than a mile away.

Nice room/hotel, no breakfast/rude kitchen staff

I liked the location of the hotel, the room was nice and clean, lobby nice, and the guy at the front desk was pleasant when I arrived. One thing I didn’t like which will probably keep me from booking again in the breakfast and the service at breakfast. One of the main reasons I chose this location was due to them offering free breakfast. Breakfast was over at 10am I got down there at 920am and there was absolutely no food left except toast. Cereal, fruit, muffins, sausage, omelettes, eggs, pancakes, all empty!! The kitchen staff was rude, mumbling under her breath, slamming cabinets, slamming lids and the dishes in the back kitchen which was loud for everyone to hear, definitely made the guests waiting feel uncomfortable. Definitely turn my morning upside down and I had to then check out and pay for breakfast at a restaurant which I wanted to avoid.

The hotel was very clean. Looked like a very knew or remodeled hotel. Also quiet for the most part, heater made a constant noise all night but nothing that would keep you up, background noise!
