My boyfriend and I stayed here for the Detroit Marathon last month. I had reservations at another hotel, but they lost them so I switch to this one at the last minute. I paid $160 for the night because they were fully booked. When we opened the door to our room, a blast of awful strong-smelling cleaning products came out. We immediately turned on the air conditioner, since the windows didn't open, but it didn't help. On the way out to dinner, we requested that we switch rooms if one opened up. When we came back, the room was still unbearable. I asked again if there were any other rooms open, and the manager said that he would have manintence bring up an air cleaner. When that man came, he too agreed that the smell was terrible and that he wouldn't be able to fix it. The manager then called us (at about 9:30pm) told us that we could have a handicap-accessible room if we wanted to switch.
This situation ended up working out, and the location was fabulous for the race, but it would have been better if I hadn't gotten a migraine from the awful smell.
