Quaint charm in Midtown Detroit

The Inn on Ferry Street is very charming! It has the feel of a bed and breakfast. The buildings are old and quaint, which I like, but if you need everything brand new, this might not be your style. The rooms could use new carpet, and the mattress was a little soft for my taste. But I'll be back because I love the ambience and location.

Detroit first timers.

Came to town for a concert. The young lady Ariel at the desk was exceptional helping with directions to the venue. There are 4 houses and you are welcome to go into each and see the beautiful homes.

The Inn has lovely staff and historic charm. That said, our toom was located just inside the main entrance. There was a great deal of noise from other guests coming in and out and making coffee at the coffee station. The parking lot was also full, so we had to search our street parking. However, it’s close to the Qline, felt very safe and easy. We’d consider staying again but will request/book direct to ensure we have a room upstairs.

Love the area & love the building. It’s a cute place but has its issues- our room was so unbearably hot and thermostat did not work. The tv was nothing but static, small and old.The whole building needs renovation work. Don’t try to call to get help with anything as no one responds at front desk. Would not stay here again. There are similar places we have stayed like this that are 5 star. They have their own parking lot but you still have to pay for that on top of the high price to stay there
