Your Cozy One Bedroom Detroit

Mission accomplished! Positive: Location

A good apartment for a short start - close to DIA, Ford Piquette, and Africa. American museum. Street car (Ferry) is a short walk and free. Communication is all electronic (my entry code don’t work so was given a new one 10mins after arriving). Kitchen is clean but missing wine glass and small spoons, otherwise well appointed. Local grocery store is good and 10min walk. Not many food options near by; better choice downtown.

Good, not great.Code we were given did not work.The twin bed on the listing was actually an air mattress stored in the closet.Not cool.Listing said there was a balcony. No balcony.Nothing in the kitchen to help with meals, no napkins, oil, or even basic salt and pepper. Barely any dishes.Shower was clogged.Furniture was cute but everything was pretty cheap.Washing machine was loud af and took 6 hours to do a load.Neighborhood was fine, parking was easy, and host responded to our issues. The apartment was clean and the bed was comfortable.

Bare-bones apartment in excellent location, good value. Positive: Excellent location for visiting the Detroit Institute of Arts and other nearby museums and galleries, as well as architectural strolls in and around Wayne State University. Easy free street parking in front of the building. Negative: Apartment door code was not what we were given in the check-in information. It took awhile phoning the management company (who didn’t pick up but texted us back) to get the correct code (which actually was easier to memorize than the code in the check-in info because it differed from the front-door code by only the last digit). Kitchen had no towel rack or dish towels and minimal cooking and dining supplies (no frying pan, no baking sheet, no measuring cups, few forks, knives, and spoons). Bathtub was slippery and lacked a non-slip mat. Lighting was so-so, making it hard for two people to read in the living room. Should be easy for them to improve, if they want to.

Very disappointing Positive: The neighborhood Negative: Everything in the apartment was broken. From the couch to the shower to the bed.. had to sleep on the air mattress in the living room. Shower was clogged and they wanted me to check for hair from previous guests which is disgusting. Would never stay there again.
