    Mold in tub/shower
    Jamie L.

    This is not a hotel. This is a dumpy motel. It's also inaccurately advertised on HotelTonight. Wish I would have looked here or at other reviews. HT says "room approximately 350sqft" which is why I booked it. The room was extremely small. At most 150sqft. The concrete floors and clear bulbs with bright white LED lights made me feel like I was in a jail cell. Not comfortable at all. Tiny bed. Only one body towel provided when the room is supposed to be for 2 people. Mold in shower. Shower fan is deafeningly loud. And paper thin walls. Can hear the couple next door going at it all day and night. Do not stay here!

    Affordable. Friendly front desk staff. Cool vibe to the hotel and room. Comfortable bed. I would recommend this place to anyone staying in Detroit.

    Concrete floors, clothes rack for a closet, rolling cart for shelving/vanity, small night stands, Flimsy beat up small rug in bathroom. All this for $260. Gated area for parking your car and if we weren't so dead tired or looked at the rooms prior, we would have passed on this place. Will not be returning.

    TLDR: Dirty sheets, thin walls, locked doors to the stairway, do not waste your money! I really wish I would've read the reviews of this place before I came here. This place was terrible. We checked in late (around 11pm) and three groups walked in with us. The woman at the desk did a great job of simultaneous getting us all checked in. We took the elevator to the room and the elevator was sketchy. The doors were closing slowly and stopped for a long period before opening. (This happened multiple times during our stay). The walls had some art on them but I noticed they were all by the same person. Not a big deal but I thought a boutique hotel would have a bit of variety. Also the halls were dark. The little lamps didn't do much. You could still see but it was by no means bright. When we finally got to the room, I was a bit disappointed by how small it was and to see the bed wasn't made. We were only staying the weekend so I didn't stress about this too much and decided to make the bed. When I get to the comforter, it's filled with stains. It looked like it hadn't been washed. I quickly call the front desk and the same lady was like "ok we'll bring another one". They brought it, I move on. We're finally ready for bed. The tv was nice because it had multiple channels and a guide so we could watch whatever was on cable (no Netflix or other streaming apps were choices btw). It was about 1am when we heard music BLASTING, like it was so loud we could hear the words clearly. I was taking aback by this but too annoyed at this point to call the front desk. The music played for about 10 minutes and thought we would get some peace. NOPE! Not even 5 minutes later we could clearly hear our neighbors having sex. It wasn't like yelling, more of the moans and grunts. It was terrible. I knew in this moment, I'd never come back to this hotel. Hell, I wanted my money back but when we talked to the front desk they informed us that any cancellations would have to go through booking.com. Our stay consisted of more of this. We heard a different couple arguing multiple times throughout the day. The absolute worst and most concerning thing was that the doors to the stairs were locked! We tried to take the stairs 3 different times (at different doors) and the doors were locked. We only found 1 door that wasn't lock. I'm not well aware of fire laws but I am sure THIS IS A FIRE HAZARD. All in all, I won't be back. I'll probably post this on google reviews as well because people shouldn't waste their money and somebody needs to check those doors. PS I am a bit sad to write this because most of the employees were really nice.

    Unbearably noisy heating - slash - a/c unit. The decible reading is over 62, peaking at over 90. If we turn it off, the temperature in the room skyrockets even though it's the last week of December. The system is set at very moderate 68 degrees, lowest fan setting. No assistance from the hotel: called the front desk and the general manager for advice or a change of room, but no answer. There is no staff at the hotel for assistance.

    Door handle

    From the start the pictures do not fit the description. We get to the hotel check in drop our things and leave for the day to go off and have fun. We get back to the hotel into our room I pull off the comforter layer of that's what you want to call it. My daughter says there is blood, I look and there is dried blood on the comforter. I look around since I'm getting ready for bed and the hotel is dirty and for what it costs is a complete rip off. I pack us up go down to the front desk, I tell the girl that we have blood etc she says let me talk to my manger I told her I wanted a refund. She goes in the back pretends like she talks to a manager and comes out and says as soon as hotels.com calls we will refund the money. Little did "brennie" "Brittany" who knows her name she lies so I don't know if she is making up her name. My husband is taking to hotels.com calls the hotel and brennie says she's the manager and no not to give us a refund. I drive back up there and confront the front desk girl we will call Brennie and say you told me that the money would be refunded, she says no I didnt well she doesn't know we recorded the whole conversations that were had. Then we ask to speak to a manager and she says she's busy then says she left, oh wow YUN comes from nowhere and now she's the manager. Now we have many of patrons staying there hearing this conversation. Brennie is so angry cause we keep asking for a manager she refuses to take care of the other patrons at the desk and lets them proceed to listen about the blood biohazard on our bed. I will add photos, not only blood but the room is gross it's dirty and well not worth the money. The walls were gross and the windowsill was falling off the bed frame was dirty. Refuse a refund with blood on the bed.

    While looking at the pictures of this boutique hotel known as Trumbull & Porter, the thought of staying at it felt like an adventure that I surely wanted part of my getaway to Detroit for the Detroit Free Press Marathon. I also figured why not because overall I wanted to be closer to downtown Detroit. As for my visit, I noticed that the mask mandates are different in Michigan because I was literally the only one in this hotel wearing a mask! Coming from Illinois where we have mandates it just feels so odd not wearing one in businesses. The exterior has a unique appearance that certainly stands out. As one that considers myself a hipster, this hotel is definitely hipster friendly the way it is designed and what it offers. I really loved the interior of the hallway; the interior had a dim lit appearance with mini lights plastered along the wall. The dim lit appearance coincides well with the hotel's noted message 'welcome to the quiet zone' which gives you that vibe. During my visit I didn't utilize any of the amenities, specifically the fitness center, but I did see it from the hallway as I peeked through the window. I wanted to enter, but an access code was required to enter. I loved the artsy feel of my room; the room had everything you would need for a comfortable night's stay. Before getting comfortable on the bed, I did a thorough check for stains and anything else that would hinder me from getting rest. I found nothing which was a huge relief! And more over being able to toggle with the temperature added extra comfort along with the room's already cleanliness. There was not a carpet covering the entire room; just pieces covering underneath the bed as well as the sink area which I had to get used to. The carpet pieces looked like something straight out of your grandmother's house. So if you choose to stay at the Trumbull I recommend footwear to wear around the room because who knows if the floor is cleaned or not. There were also limited cable channels, but still enough to get me through the night. With it being a college football Saturday I was satisfied with being able to watch the main games. Another thing was the absence of a microwave even though I had no plans on utilizing one during my night's stay. Checking out was a breeze! With my flight being later in the afternoon I utilized every minute I had to pack my things until it was 11:00 AM, the noted check out time. During my night's stay, the staff took care of me. And despite having many other guests dealt with, their kindness will never be forgotten from the time I checked in to the time I checked out. Being that Trumbull & Porter offered everything I looked for I am quite positive that I will return. Other than it being accessible to downtown Detroit, I loved that it is close to Corktown where you'll find good restaurants. If you are looking for a hotel with less of a luxury touch, homely, affordable, and located in a safe neighborhood then look no further than Trumbull & Porter. ~Blessings~   Thomas G

This property is housed in the 1925 Metropolitan Building, a stunning Neo-Gothic "Jeweler's Building" that sat vacant for nearly 40 years. Seeing it restored to its former glory rather than being demolished is a win for the city.  The entrance lobby and the grand stairway to the second floor are phenomenal--the restoration team clearly put a lot of heart into preserving the marble and the ornate details. Because the hotel has to conform to the original historic footprint, the rooms are unique and oddly shaped. It was a refreshing change of pace to stay somewhere that broke out of the usual "cookie-cutter" hotel mold. My room featured a long internal hallway, a small kitchenette, and enough windows to provide a fantastic view of the Detroit skyline.  Check-in was seamless, and the staff were excellent throughout my stay. I initially considered subtracting a star because my room lacked a steamer, but the breakfast service won me back. The made-to-order omelets and the yogurt granola station were top-notch, and that high-quality start to the day made up for any minor room omissions. If you appreciate architecture with a history and a bit of character, this is definitely the place to stay in Detroit.

Most of rooms were 80-86 degrees and the AC was not working. It was insane.

If you're in town for a game or event, the location is hard to beat. That said, the hotel itself felt small and a bit cramped. The room was on the smaller side, and the bed wasn't particularly comfortable for a hotel at this price point (around ~$350/night). For that cost, I expected wayyy more space and comfort. One downside was the hotel bar,I couldn't even get a seat and didn't realize you needed a reservation, which was frustrating and took away from the experience.
