    Ford Rouge Factory Tour - The classic Mustang, also in Station 5.

    Ford Rouge Factory Tour

    The Ford Rouge Factory tour is an excellent experience and one worth taking if you are a car…read moreenthusiast or simply a history buff. If for nothing more, you can appreciate this tour for its showcase of manufacturing history. After all, the Ford vehicle is the father of automotive history. On the tour you'll learn about much of the owner's early labor standards and America's rich automotive industry history including defining moments like the establishment of labor unions, integrating technology on the assembly line, and community engagement. What makes this tour special is the building is not just a museum, but a real working truck factory located at the Ford Motor Company's Dearborn Truck Plant. On the tour you'll be able to view the vehicle assembly area. I recommend purchasing tour tickets online to see if discounts are available. Overall, a very good tour worth taking.

    An interesting, EPCOT-like factory tour…read more Bought a combination for the Ford Rouge Factory Tour and the Henry Ford Museum of American Innovation. My favorite part of the tour was talking to the security guard who gave more insight into the assembly line. Took a 15 minute bus ride from the museum to the factory. Check the schedule as the buses do run on time. The factory tour has five stations. A movie, a laser Ford truck assembly show, the observation deck, the factory, a smallish room filled with a collection of Ford cars over the past century. The movie glossed over the beginnings of Henry Ford's inventions with an emphasis on the creation of an assembly line to cut down the time to build a car from 12 hours to 93 minutes. The moving part assembly line in Highland Park was super efficient. By breaking down the process to 84 steps and having stationary workers build each car, it really streamlined the process. This dropped the price of the Model T from $850 in 1908 to $260 in 1925 making the luxury vehicle affordable for an average family in America. Workers were paid $2.50 a day, but as the company became more profitable (and many workers were quitting due to boredom with monotonous tasks) the wages were increased to $5 a day. Ford had many conflicts with the Automobile Unions (UAW). Fights were physical and bloody. Graphic images released in the news in the 1930s turned public opinion against Ford. In the 1940s, he held out signing a Union contract until his wife Clara Ford threatened to leave him unless he signed a contract to stop the bloodshed. The 1941 UAW gave the workers the best benefits and wages at the time. The "assembly" laser 360 movie show was very EPCOT-like. Interesting, but not informative. The guide at the observation deck was very good. This is one of two places where photos were allowed. The elevated walk over the assembly line was self guided. Since they are very behind on construction, shift work is done on the weekends. Interesting to see the F-150s being assembled station by station. Spoke to a security guard who gave us insight into the safety gear needed, the energy efficient design of the building and how strikes and the union still advocate for workers salaries, working conditions and benefits. Otherwise, it would have been more like walking through another area with labels but limited explanation. No photos allowed here. The building is very interesting. No air conditioning, but the high ceilings allow heat to rise and the green roof with living plants make the building more climate controlled and energy efficient. Teams work in groups of 8 at each station. Lunch breaks are taken at the same. Key to know if you want to see the assembly line in action. The latest strike brought back more benefits. Workers wear eye protection and hearing protection. So interesting to learn more after asking questions. The last part of the self guided part of the tour brings you back to the main building for a view of cars like the Model A, the Thunderbird and the Mustang. Make sure to check the schedule to get a bus to go back to the Museum after the Ford Rouge Factory Tour is completed. An interesting tour, but not the best factory experience that I have taken.

    I came in with decent expectations. I've stayed at enough of Choice Hotels to know that even though…read morethey might have one of their premier names on them, they might not be the nicest. But we were able to get a suite for around $100 a night since we were there for three nights. Great deal and we wanted to go to Greenfield Village which is nearby. Parking in the front and back but unfortunately even at night, the back door is unlocked cuz it is broken. I actually parked my electric car next door at the Amtrak station because it was free overnight charging. It was a short walk so definitely worth it if you have an electric car. Did I mention completely free? Make sure to get a room away from the railroad tracks as the road out front is not loud at all. Place is a bit outdated and needs some upkeep. But the breakfast was fine although nothing too special. Everything appeared clean in our room and we were glad to have the suite. This place just needs some updating and I think it would be a much better choice. Our shower water was always lukewarm unfortunately. Staff was friendly though and we made sure to tip housekeeping.

    I had reservations over the weekend of the 26th. The first night my bed had a hole in it the carpet…read morewas filthy and the toilet had feces on it. I spoke with management, Rah, about the conditions of the room. She was very uncompassionate about the situation and told me she has no more rooms available. She also informed me that the only time she'll have a room available as after 5:00 the next day. I told her that was unacceptable and she proceeded to keep cutting me off and telling me she told me she didn't have anything available. I called corporate in front of her. She had a lot to say before they answered the phone. After they answered the phone she was quiet as a mouse. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone. I have pictures to prove it.
