Value for money

Shower handle broke but was quickly fixed.

Office people were great & friendly. Beds newer and very comfortable. Close to event venue.

A little rundown and general cleanliness could definitely be improved upon. Floors & toilet especially could be cleaned better. Definitely do not walk barefoot in room.

The location. Close to Ford Field and Comerica Park (15 minutes walk) Safe area and no homeless on the streets in the area. Plenty of traffic in the evening to feel more than safe on a walk home. (Yet not at all disturbing inside the room I had) Yes, the room have its flaws if you have hotel like expectations and it do have a slight smell of smoke from the inside but nothing major. But it is a pretty cheap motel in close proximity to Downtown Detroit. Nearly half the price of the cheapest alternatives in the area

The AC could have been slightly better. Didn't really feel like it truly worked, but it wasn't that hot so had no real issue And the beforementioned smokey smell. The beds buildup with the plastic on the bottom matress, I undestand it, it just doesn't look that good :)

The staff is nice and the rooms are clean. It's very much what you would expect but it's a great location to every thing too.

Get a second floor room.

The owner of this small throwback motel is a delight! Very personable (I suspect she's the original owner.) Lots of nice touches, such as the cheery blue quilt print bedspread, and a picket fence between the posts of the walkway on the lower level -- which I'm sure was the protection needed for the lovely patch of healthy lawn between it and the parking area, creating instant appeal to an older property in this rather worn section of Detroit! Picket fence and grass! -- I'm in Detroit, really? And the bath towels were so soft, not the typical low-budget find!!

The Viking motel shows its age in small, fairly insignificant ways, things not affecting our comfort: insulation visible around the a/c unit, a slightly rusty bath drain. And don't be put off by the homemade covid-secure passthrough for items not fitting through the usual paper & pen tray under the plexiglass in the office: she joked that it "protects people from this mean old lady!" (LOL -- not a mean bone in her body, I'd say!)

the price and location. for budget travelers who want a location not far from downtown Detroit. rooms seemed recently remodeled and everything was very clean. I came here for movement festival. it was great spot for the price.

I don’t have any complaints.

The location and it didn't cost a lot to stay.

You had to go to the office to get ice

Very good value. We were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the room for how cheap it was.

There were a noticeable amount of ants on the bathroom floor at night, but nothing alarming.

There was a breakfast, they didn’t say anything about that, the rooms look not that great, rooms were cold, it’s was clean fir bring a 2/3 star motel

Mire blankets & way over priced for the comfort of the room, the more u pay, u expect better quality in the room, these looked getto

Close to casino

Na

Updated room, clean bath, clean linens Seems to be under new management, grounds cleaner, well lit. If you only need a place to stay downtown Detroit, why pay double anywhere else.

Good location..room and bedding clean ..nice staff

Thought the price could be a little lower

The bed was comfortable, it had a coffee maker along with a microwave and refrigerator. I enjoy their Xfinity tv and remote. It was close to downtown.

I didn't like hearing all the noise, primarily the bass noises ("music") from cars outside, almost all day long. I couldn't get a WiFi signal, either on my phone nor my Roku player I brought with me for the TV. There was no cold water running from the fossets. I had to put cups of water in the refrigerator to have cold water to drink.

The only good thing was it was within walking distance to our concert venue we went for! Other than that-was horrible!!

Tub had dead bugs in it, the room smelled horrible, the comforter on the bed was thin and had stains/dirt all over it! There were pubic hairs in the bed sheets, the outlets didn't work other than the one for the tv/refrigerator. The floor was disgusting, dirty! We ended up sleeping in our car for the night because nobody was in the office when we got back at 2 am.

The owner / manger was friendly and made us feel welcome
