Morzean, Pontiac, visiting Roostertail Wed, 6 July 2016
We were able to get $10 off for all the issues we experienced; would not recommend this hotel; will not stay there again.
Liked: The distance from the event (wedding at Rooster Tail) and the price.
Disliked: TV didn't work; shower didn't drain properly; lock on door didn't work.

Close enough to Comerica Park...
Liked: It had a room with a bed, and a door that locked, which is what I needed for my stay. It's right on the #9 bus route, and a short walk from the riverfront (~5 mins) and Comerica Park (~20 mins).
Disliked: The room smelled a little like cigarette smoke, and the lighting wasn't great. Breakfast wasn't anything special, but about what I was expecting. The shower seemed to only function as a bath, and i couldn't figure out how to make it be a shower. It makes sense that it was more or less the cheapest option, you get what you pay for and no more.

Passable
Liked: Good location and price is right. The bed and pillows were not bad. The mirror was big and clean. The fridge, once turned on from what is a light switch, remained quiet and got cold.
Disliked: This is an old Holiday Inn like place. The rooms were somewhat rundown, the shower rod fell on me and I fixed it. I also fixed the toilet seat. The tub was not in good shape. The faucet in the shower leaked constantly. Two semi-bath towels, 1 hand and 1 washcloth for a two bed room. Horrible, snowy tv picture on most channels like they used an antenna I could not fix.

This is an OK option...
Liked: This motel is great value, as it comes in at a fraction of the nightly rates at nearby properties. It is very conveniently located, and there's an excellent grocery story across the street. The bathroom and sheets were very clean. The gentleman at the front desk in the morning was also very helpful and friendly when called upon
Disliked: A little bit of attention to detail and care in maintenance/upkeep could go a long way here. For example, the coffee machine was missing its tray, which it wouldn't work without, and the button to heat the water wasn't working either. I found some empty bottles left by the last tenant under the bed. It also took a long time and a couple of requests to obtain amenities like an iron -- which then stopped working after single use. The WiFi was usable for basic browsing, but not for multimedia, and it disconnected a few times a day.
