The pool was down for maintenance, go buy the part and fix it, thats ridiculous…that’s why we booked there. TV didn’t work in the room, they couldn’t print me a receipt/folio, I paid for continental breakfast and when I left at 8:15am, it still wasn’t even open and the employees didn’t seem to address the manic environment… I would never say there again.

Property was conveniently located and clean. Staff was friendly. No microwaves in room and the TV remote setup was frustrating. Other than that, the stay was great.

TERRIBLE is not enough to describe this "hotel". The only positive thing is that it is easy to park and has a good facade. When you enter everything is terrible: unprofessional staff, zero helpful, rude, unfriendly. The room and bathroom are DISGUSTING. Extremely expensive. Don't waste your money. Despite having booked more than 3 months in advance, they did not give me the room I paid for and the "kind" response was if I wanted my money back (11pm and with family)!!!

The pool and the cute modern pictures is why I booked here in the first place and guess what! The pool was under maitenance our room smelled like BO and was really moist/moldy my husband ended up having severe allergies from the mold or whatever was in the room. I gave the staff a very high rating because the woman at the front desk was very understanding and gave us a refund right away.

Place is outdated, which I can completely overlook if it is clean. My bathroom was not clean. I did not have hand soap or shower soap. I used the liquid shampoo. My family members room had a 1/2 full Pepsi bottle laying in the middle of the floor. I will not stay here next year when we return for an event.

The incidental deposit seemed a bit excessive for a one night stay. Breakfast was an additional charge which was disappointing. Coffee was so weak you could see through it. Staff was very nice at check in.

Nice place, overall.
There was a number of people smoking pot on the top floor, where my kids were staying. I don't care that you smoke it, just not around my kids. Otherwise the hotel did a great job of accomodations for all of the champion force cheer families that stayed, and even went out of their way to provide a breakfast that they normally wouldn't so every one would be able to eat. Thank you very much for doing that!

The hotel was as no frills as can be. The hallways were not heated in the middle of January. We stayed 2 nights, no cleaning done, no one even came to empty the trash cans, no clean towels without asking for them. The snack area for you to purchase snacks was empty, and there was 1 microwave in the common area for everyone to use as opposed to one in the room. It worked as most of the other hotels were full, but we won't stay there again.

I will not comeback! I went to attend a seminar Saturday and I made a reservation for two nights to enjoy a relaxing time. Despite paying for breakfast when placing the reservation, what was offered was a poor variety, and no coffee on hand, Sunday food was retired 15 minutes earlier than regular hours. When complained to the employee, we had a rude response. She stated that the breakfast was a courtesy for kids not intended for adults. So, why I was charged for the meal?. There was no phone in the room to call the front desk. When we requested an extra hour to check out to enjoy the swimming pool due to the day before I was in a seminar, I was requested to pay extra 15dlls! This is not definitely a place for relaxing when visiting Novi. Next time I will look to stay in another more friendly hotel.
