Top Wayne State University Hotel Reviews

Atheneum Suite Hotel

8/10 Good

"Checked in, receptionist gave me a room key to someone else’s room, had to re check in. Super annoying"

Trumbull and Porter Hotel

Private Charming Midtown 1-bedroom apartment in amazing Detroit with WiFi, AC

10/10 Excellent

"This charming, clean and nicely decorated apartment was perfect for my first visit to Detroit. The location was great! Having a safe place to park my vehicle was also an added bonus. I will definitely be staying here again during my next visit to Detroit."

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!!!"

Newly Renovated 2-Bedroom Oasis in the Heart of Midtwn/Downtwn Detroit w/theater
