This hotel has declined a lot in the last twenty years when I began to ho there. The breakfasts are not as good as they once were, they charge for parking (which was once free), there were half a dozen stains on the carpet in my room, no where near enough toilet paper in the room, no bath mats and not enough towels etc etc

Needs a clean update, the carpet was so old & hadn’t been vacuumed as there was ash on carpet. The electrical outlets were so old they would hold our phone plugs.

This is an awesome property. My wife and I grabbed a room to see a Tigers game and spend some time in Detroit and this place proved to be a solid call. Beautiful old Victorian home and it’s comfortable, clean and the staff is excellent. Easy parking and pretty good breakfast too.

We Had a very late flight arrived at two in the morning, I texted and emailed the hotel days ahead of time and no one was there to answer the door and when we called, no one picked up the phone. Here we are in the middle of the night outside with all of our luggage. Never again.

We choose The Inn on Ferry Street because it is so close to the Detroit Institute of Arts. We loved the charm of the old mansions, but, unfortunately, our room was not very comfortable. While it was super hot outside, our room was 63 degrees and we couldn't change it. There is only one chair (not great for hanging out although the lobbies are comfy), our hair dryer was missing, and the tiny sink with no shelf space for toiletries was not convenient. The breakfast was very minimal and disappointing. It would be relatively easy to add a few elements such as yogurt or granola. There was also no jam on our first day.
