Detroit!

We spent one night in Detroit and wanted a unique hotel experience. Loved the Detroit Foundation, a great hotel in a historic building. Everything was perfect, location, rooms, restaurant, and the energy of downtown Detroit.

Restored five story fire house with great bar and restaurant. Restoration blends historic charm wil updated amenities. One point off for a bit spartan room amenities and a poorly built shower pan that had me standing in water.

The Junior Suite was trendy, unique, and very different than any other room we've stayed in before. It was perfect for the weekend. We enjoyed the location as there is a Starbucks one block out the door as well. The view of the Detroit River was beautiful in the morning. We would definitely stay at the Detroit Foundation again. Shoutout to John and Jordan for great customer service!
