Historic Manor 2BR in the Heart of Midtown Detroit - Mins From Downtown

8/10 Good
"The place was mostly clean, but the couch was crumby and there was a bag of frozen fruit peels, crackers, and I don’t really know what else in the freezer which was super strange. Other than that though, it was great! I could tell linens were clean. It was a great location and a good amount of space for the price. We did get a parking ticket for “not parking within 6 inches of the curb” so be very mindful of your parking if parking by the building. There was some late night noise a few nights, but we expected that with booking that location. Would definitely stay here again! The host was SO communicative and helpful!!!"
