My family attended a University of Michigan football game last fall and were looking for a reasonably priced, convenient hotel for the weekend. Hotels in Ann Arbor are obviously priced atrociously high - or have extremely limited availability - on football weekends. After researching options on TripAdvisor, we decided that the Staybridge in Novi was a reasonable alternative. The price was right and located within easy reach of Ann Arbor. We didn't regret our choice at all from a logistics standpoint. It was an easy 30 minute drive to Michigan Stadium on Saturday a.m.

Overall, we were extremely pleased with this Staybridge Suites. The staff was very pleasant and helpful, the room (a suite w/ kitchen/living area in one room, bedroom in another) was configured great and had enough room to comfortably fit a family of four. The refrigerator and kitchen were great tools for those looking for a cheap dinner option (a grocery store within a 2 minute drive...Kroger, I think.). The pool area was clean and large with a nice hot tub. Breakfast options were great...no complaints about the food at all from the kids. My wife used the exercise facilities and was satisfied. This is a very nice, newer facility that feels warm and comfortable.

My only minor complaints were that the whirlpool wasn't entirely functional on the weekend we were there (the pool was warm, but the jets were not working...we were looking forward to a nice soak after a cool football day!). I also didn't agree entirely with the bed. If you read other reviews of mine, this isn't very surprising. I'm a very sensitive sleeper with back issues, so finding comfortable hotel beds is often difficult for me. No other family members of mine complained about the beds. In fact, they all commented on how well they slept! So I don't think my view should persuade anyone from staying here since my perspective is definitely skewed. I still rate this as an excellent stay from a family perspective and will definitely book there again for our next football game.

I stayed here on a business trip late last year and was very happy with the quality of service of the hotel. Yes, the hotel is newer and that helps, but the staff was extremely friendly and helpful and that's more important to me. The beds were very comfortable as were the pillows. They have a nice selection of different softness for their pillows so for picky people like myself I was able to find one that worked for me.

The hotel is also in a good location and the price is right. Highly recommended property!

Room ready at check in, recognized as a Priority Club member, given a gift bag and upgrade due to my Platinum status. Clean room, not a thing out of place. Pool well stocked with towels and clean. I'd highly recommend, and will use in future.

This was a pleasant surprise. The staff were all exceptionally friendly. Clean rooms and grounds, good breakfast, and nice enough fare at the social hour (T,W,Th) that you do not have to eat out. Would recommenr this to anyone. Not 5 star accommodations, but a 5 rating for the value!
