LISTEN, I'm used to the best of the best (great film) – penthouse views, luxury cars, etc – and I immediately felt at home at this hotel. I was welcomed warmly by the front desk staff and had my car valet. Even though the valet was wearing gym shorts and a dirty wife beater, she (I think?) was very nice and I look forward to continuing our conversation and tipping her.
After trying to get my Mercedes out of valet, I was informed by the front desk “we aint got valet, city boy” and explaining that a woman (again, possible a man) took my car, the front desk gentlemen yelled “TOUGH S**T!!!!!!”. I reported a stolen vehicle to the Fowlerville Police and chalked it up to bad luck.

As I made my way to the room, I tripped several times trying to navigate the gravel parking lot. The key to my room didn’t work but no worries, a young man had a shiv and popped it open with no issue. As I opened the door, I was greeted by a strong musk with a hint of Stenson. 

The room itself has an 80s retro vibe to it, which I loved. After taking off my shoes and setting my Gucci Bags on the dresser, I was alarmed to hear gunshots. Knowing Livingston County has a lot of hunters, I figured it was a late season, big game hunter. 

The TV in the room didn’t work and after calling the front desk, I was informed “never said it work” by them. I said “fair” and hung up. Deciding to call it a night, i laid down on the bed and discovered it was a sheet covering a piece of ply board. Oh well, for the rate the room is still a steal!!

CONCLUSION – I’ll be back.

don't listen to the other reviews!! 5+ STARS!!

Place is an independaent outfit showing it's age. In spite of that I had a quiet confortable night of rest. They apparently cater to the semi homeless from what I saw. Perhaps as much of a shelter as a motel. Alchol sold by the bottle in the lobby. That's a first for me.

My experience was OK

C'mon people! Sure the room was a little musty and the decor is dated, but the hotel is by a bar, and we always had quick access to a bottle opener while on the john.  Well worth the money in Howell Michigan.

Not As Bad as All That

In the back row of complex are all ex-felon males. The next row is mostly Latinos. All of them are able to stand outside in groups of 8++, be loud, play music, do drugs, drink, bbg etc out in the open for all day and evening and management never says anything to them. Me and 1 other female set outside her room for only a couple hours just taking and the manager drives back threatening to kick us out for congregation.

Bigot,rude and sexist

Trama and Emotional distress is all my family got. Discrimination, segregation, treated un civil. A lot of good people housed with the bad..Chris or Amier do not care if you are harmed in your stay, THEY ARE TRYING TO RUN A BUSSINESS...A sad situation our County feels its less harmfull to house people there than tell these people to F off..Had to put with with assult,3 police reports, my 9 year old seuxally assulted while told to play by where the house inmates from prision. And not to lose a roof over our heads even the police knew to not go to front desk, although it was for MY SAFETY, knowing he would automically evict me. So I had to put up with 3 weeks of harassment and living in fear. Tenants are treated like filth.God forbid you be a CHILD, there..Discrimination to its fullest. They could care less of disabilities, or being human in general.

Housed after EMERGENCY loss of home

Chris at the front desk was the rudest person I have ever met. The rest of the staff were nice, but the room smelled like an ashtray despite being non smoking and was just dirty in general. There were dirty dishes left in the sink, the refrigerator was falling apart, the microwave didn't work well, and the tv didn't work at all. The room definitely didn't look like the pictures on the website. Oh, and despite what the website says, there is no longer a pool. Also despite advertising as an extended stay hotel, kitchenette rooms are not available. I definitely would not recommend bringing children here, it is a very unsafe environment. I saw open drug use several times. 

Worst hotel I've ever seen 

Traveling with a pet is always a challenge, and I was glad to hear this property allows pets. I was told that I would be kicked out if my 10 pound terrier made too much noise. No worries, she's really a quiet dog. The room was smelly and the air conditioning barely worked. The beds are uncomfortable and overall the entire facility needs an update. That night, there was so much noise from the other tenants that I couldn't get any sleep whatsoever. And they were worried about my dog, please!! When I checked out, I mentioned my displeasure of the noise. All the staff could say was "I'm sorry." Well, that doesn't give me back a night of needed sleep. So, if you are considering staying here, pay a little bit more somewhere else. Your sleep is worth it.
