"Not clean ,dusty, horrible"

Reviewed March 02, 2025

I Do Not Recommend staying here: At check in room with zero toilet paper, ball of hair inside the shower, shower floor disgusting (zoom the pictures) very dusty (over the phone, all surfaces inside the bathroom,etc) microwave smells like old popcorn 🍿, coffee maker water tank never cleaned (smells like drain) after I saw all this I decided to check under the sheets and 😱 OMG 😱 dried blood stains on the duvet insert and mattress cover also with URINE stains, after 3 different trips to front desk, 3 different visits of housekeeping and a maintenance guy I had to buy bleach myself to clean the shower 🚿 floor and flipflops. Room 1021 connecting room 10th floor, on the other hand food was good , Dre at the round bar was kind and helpful, good service and the place was clean BUT I can't not say the same thing from the restaurant on breakfast hours, we went there around 9am on a Saturday and the place looks very dirty (looks they forgot to clean before closing the previous night) all ceiling glass laps very DUSTY, server Anthony never prepared the table so I have to keep on asking for even an spoon to stir my coffee, Hotel location was convenient for our concert night at Little Ceasar Arena but PLEASE SAFE YOURSELF A TRIP AND FIND ANOTHER HOTEL.

"Would visit again!"

Reviewed February 17, 2025

Large rooms and good food. Shekib at the front desk went above and beyond to help me -excellent customer service from him, as well as the round bar staff. Valet and luggage storage was also trouble-free. Would visit again when in town for an event.

"Terrible customer service"

Reviewed December 22, 2024

This stay was definitely my worst Hilton experience I’ve ever had. I was not ever informed that we had a $15 per day food/beverage credit, however I was told that as an employee ALL restaurants items (except alcohol) was 50%. I ordered lunch for my daughter and I (two $18 burgers that somehow cost $66) and was told since the food was delivered to my room there is no 50% discount. Obviously I would have walked down to get it knowing that delivery would cost me $40 for “gratuity” which was $10 (and never agreed to) and the loss of the 50% discount. I complained since this information was never shared and in return they awarded me the $15 daily credit for my concerns (which I should have been receiving anyway), Then, not once, but TWICE, I had housekeeping burst into my room without knocking saying “oops, thought it was empty”— this was my personal space which I could have been undressed in that a man walked into twice without knocking! Lastly, my room was not given the employee rate on the last night even though it was booked at that rate and it was not eligible for points even though I booked directly through Hilton. This was just a terrible experience where my money and my privacy were stolen from me.

"Package stolen"

Reviewed November 21, 2024

My experience at this hotel was truly awful. The hotel was overcharging for some event in town so it wasn't cheap. I called the hotel in advance to ask if I could ship something to myself and was given permission to do so. The delivery company had a confirmation and a photo of the package being delivered so I knew for a fact that it had indeed been delivered. When I arrived at the hotel, they could not find the package. There was no apology, or follow up. They just told me it wasn't their problem. One employee wondered out loud whether an employee might have taken it (it was a delivery from a trendy clothing store). The whole experience was quite disturbing. What made things worse is that I tried to reach out to the hotel manager after the stay but was ignored. Just be careful - they may have a theft problem.

"Excellent customer service going above and beyond to make a tailored and unique experience for the guest"

Reviewed September 20, 2024

I'm in Detroit having a great stay for friends wedding. We were greeted with warm smiles and cookies! I especially wanted to recognize Alvin at the front desk for going above and beyond to make my stay more comfortable. I have a (3 hour) law exam I have to take this weekend. When I asked about the available business center space, when he found out about my exam, kindly offered to have one of the conference rooms opened for me. The next morning I was in the lobby with my laptop and he not only remembered me but without me asking he called to have the room opened. What excellent customer service! Alvin's kindness and attention to detail really made him standout. Thank you for making my stay just a little less stressful, Alvin. I really appreciated it.
