Convenient walking distance to the DIA. Desk folks were pleasant. Room has a nice and warm space heater. There were pastries/muffins (so-so) on Sunday morning. We headed down to Eastern Market to Farmer Franks for breakfast.
Windon on stairs to our room.  Property is made up of four separate houses and the carriage house (arch photo)

Beautiful old buildings. Was VERY cold. They did have a space heater in the room. It is going to be renovated this year and it needs it. Miss the previous ownership's awesome breakfast.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The staff was kind and helpful. The room was dreamy and reminded me of my grandmother’s old property on Jefferson. I expected the room to be freezing, but instead it was 82 degrees. There was no closet space due to the tv placed in the cabinet. Don’t expect to eat or keep cold drinks either. It’s focus is tea or coffee in all the pretty nocks and reading rooms. The view of the tv is obscured by the cabinet doors because of how the bed is positioned. I was in the middle of everything I wanted to do (DIA, Autoshow, MLK HS, Hitsville, The Block, Babi, and Le Suprême).
Snowy quiet and quaint entrance that takes you back to a different time.
The brickwork!!
In the middle of historic colleges and universities like Wayne State.
Rich history and photos throughout.

There was no breakfast. We should have been given a voucher for breakfast at a nearby restaurant because we paid for it with the reservation. The room needed a thorough vacuuming and dusting. Parking nice and convenient.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
The hallways were not vacuumed, the room did not have working heat. They did provide a space heater in the closet, so I hauled it out and set it up. One of the desk lamps did not work, the outlet did as I used it to recharge my phone. The property charges extra to park in their lot, and there really is no other place to safely park. They seem irritated I used Expedia to book the room. I got a receipt from them and it listed a credit card that is not mine. I did call to try to find out what was done, and they referred me to Expedia to fix the issue. It has been a week and I have not been charged for the room. I won't go back there.

Breakfast was not available. Our room was mediocre and hot. Im pretty sure our room was wrong due to a person training. The inns were beautiful, i wish the room offered more to match the high price.
