First time trying Even Hotels -- and it was a good stay We stayed at this hotel in mid-July 2024 during a visit to Ann Arbor. It was our first time at an Even Hotel, and it was a good stay. The hotel is located right next to I-94, and our room was on the side of the hotel facing the mall and away from the highway-facing side of the hotel. So we cannot report on whether the road noise would have been notable had our room been facing the highway. We did not notice any highway noise in our room located on the opposite side of the hotel. Even Hotels have exercise equipment and yoga mats (wrapped as "cleaned for your convenience") in each room, which was a nice touch. The beds were very comfortable, the sheets were soft, and the towels were thick. The bathroom had sufficient towel hooks, and the shower worked great except for a clogged drain one day that maintenance fixed after we reported it. Our only complaint with the room (Room 436) was that the toilet had the loudest flush noise, resembling the sound of a jet engine starting. Our IHG Diamond status entitled us to free breakfast. Even Hotels have a limited breakfast menu that seems to be the same regardless of where the hotel is located. There was nothing on that menu that spouse was interested in trying, so we ended up getting breakfast outside the hotel and opted for the points amenity instead. (Our Diamond status also netted us a room upgrade, which we had to decline after noticing that it had only a single bed instead of the two beds we had reserved.) The hotel's location near the highway made it very convenient to get around to other places, including Ypsilanti for excellent Mexican food one evening (at Maiz Mexican Cantina -- be sure to try the Camarones à la Diabla if you like spicy shrimp) and a Tigers baseball game in Detroit, and it was also very easy to get back and forth to places located in Ann Arbor itself. The front desk workers were very nice. Since it was a points and free nights certificate stay, we were surprised to see a charge on our credit card for $42.46 after we had returned home, but a quick phone call to the property resulted in a credit being promptly applied to our account removing the charge. We would definitely stay here again.

New Hidden Gem We found this facility on TripAdvisor. It had a decent rating, so we gave it a shot. Our arrival and check-in were easy. Amoria was very friendly and helpful. The team made sure that when I checked out, I was very happy with my stay. Its location is close to the highway and is across the street from the Briarwood Shopping Mall. Our room was clean and spacious. In our room was an exercise balance ball, jump rope, yoga mat and yoga practice accessories. The bathroom was neat. It had a rain water head and a hand held. All the shampoos and toiletries were from Apotheke of Brooklyn, NY. The gym was larger than most hotel gyms and well appointed. It's contents included a rowing machine, treadmills, stationary cycling bikes and weighted dumbells. Great facility and team. We'll be back!!

Great hotel Really enjoyed our stay at this updated hotel. The theme is healthy wellbeing so there r affirmations on hallways and room. Sounds cheesy but it worked. The rooms were well thought out and included yoga mat, and equipment. Lovely shower. Appreciated the flavored water. Its located near other hotels and easy access to stores and restaurants.

50/50 on this hotel. I’m impartial about my stay. We checked out today and I just wasn’t impressed. After a poor experience back in December with the man at the front desk I suggested we give it another chance. Boy was I wrong. First off the manager on duty Saturday night was nowhere near helpful, very short, and the environment just looked like they were understaffed. The next morning I came down for breakfast and the woman at the desk (I can’t remember her name it starts with a R) was so sweet and funny. Just overall very personable. Then that night came down for drinks and Lindsay and Chris (I think that’s his name) kept me entertained all night. Overall wasn’t the best experience on the first night but will return because of the other staff that made it great. Was also sad because we didn’t get to see mark this time around. He’s got great stories. Maybe next time.

Praise to a couple staff who made my stay positively memorable. Turned frustration into satisfaction Mark (in food and beverage) and Jenmond (at the front desk) should be commended for excellent customer service and redemption. My experience started off negatively and if they wouldn’t have gone above and beyond I wouldn’t be back. That said the rooms were well appointed the beds were super comfortable With the pool and hot tub and workout facility on main floor and in room were great. Once again thank you turning a negative into a positive
