Nice place in a good area 4 miles north of Detroit, giving the safety of the suburbs but not too far away from Wayne State, Greektown, Belle Isle, etc.

Hotel itself is typical, but clean with nice cottage-like rooms in back for weekly stays. Lots of trees and big windows, good breakfasts.

Neighborhood is a big plus, no Detroit sleeze in Royal Oak, just north of Pleasent Ridge, south of Birmingham near an all night Walgreens and McDonalds.

Heater was a little funky, working well most of the time, but sometimes overheating the place. I'm sure their good maintanence person could have fixed this, but I didn't ask.

Nice, comfortable, clean homey place centrally located. Good for families, children etc. Not for the high-end luxury (or even semi--high end) traveller but good for anyone else seeking decent accomodations at a reasonable price.

OK place to stay. Clean rooms if dated. Cloest to Royal Oak and the only one in Royal Oak that I would stay. Everything else is a drive away.
