Was in town on business. Decided to try out The Met. Very happy I decided to stay.
Large room with a king size bed, free wireless internet. Excellent clean pool area, very nice gym with sauna, and a quiet business office with computer, scanner/printer/copier connected to the internet.

Shopping/eating is 2miles to the South on Big Beaver Rd. Everything not at the hotel is easily found there.

Enjoyed my stay! When in town, will stay again! I've spent far more and gotten much less, in many other hotels. This is an excellent place to try.

Had a Groupon to use - planned to take my teen shopping at nearby Sommerset Mall. The location allows minimal road noise. Updated bedding - it appears they have remodeled the first floor and updated things. Friendly staff. Parked right outside our room. Light breakfast (bagels, fruit, juice, coffee, cereal) was just what we'd expect with a continental breakfast.

Stayed overnight for one night. Rooms were not bad. It seems that this place was a big deal for business travelers in the 90's and not much has changed since then. The bed was comfortable and the room was clean. An update to the old floral bedspead, large and unattractive furniture, and a new tv would make a world of difference. The lobby area of the hotel was very modern and appealing. Staff were friendly at check in. The breakfast was a laugh. It included toast, english muffins, and mini bagels. Only condiments available were butter, grape jelly, and cream cheese. When complaining to management about this his excuse was they tried cereal but ended up throwing milk away, same arguement about oatmeal. I'm not sure how long it takes oatmeal to expire, but I would imagine if you bought a box of $3 oatmeal packets and set it out, customers would use it up before it expires. It seemed like they did only the bare minimum when a little extra effort wouldn't have had much cost and customers would have been much happier. There were others in the breakfast area that also were complaining. It seems like the MET has seen it's hayday and they don't seem very interested in ever getting it back. The stay was ok, like I said, but I think I will be looking for somewhere else next time I'm in Detroit.

We really enjoyed the pool, but this is not a 3 1/2 out of 5 as Expedia would have you believe. This isn't necessarily the fault of the hotel. Per Expedia 3 1/2 stars would be much like a Marriott or embassy suites, let me assure you this is not the case. I got a fantastic rate of $53 per night and at that price I'm okay with the MET, but my expectations were much higher than what I received. The halls were freezing cold and after a dip in the pool with my son it was a frigid trek back to the room. The bed was uncomfortable, the furniture was old and the carpet was stained and coming unglued. I am not a snob, I've stayed in much worse and enjoyed it just fine, but when you're expecting Marriott and you get MET, it is disappointing. The hotel is very large, I can't imagine the cost to update it, but if it were updated it is a great location for a weekend of shopping.
