I was in Ann Arbor with my daughter for funeral services I packed hurriedly the next morning When I unpacked the next day I realized I had left precious photographs and called TPSuites

I gave them room# and date; Tanya said she would check lost and found: FOUND! I had left the contents of a drawer (including driving glasses and jewelry bag) Long story short: I got my belongings back via UPS – Terry Bailey took it there and called me with tracking infoI was SO HAPPY to get the box!The accommodations were very pleasant; we were happy to find a table for 4 and a full kitchenette, so my brother and his wife were able to come and be with us the last evening The shopping center was much appreciated; we both had to pick up needed items

Service was lovely from Brandi at the front desk The room was clean, stylish, and relaxing Breakfast included waffles, eggs, bacon, baked goods, yogurts, etc

There were lots of nice touches, like full bottles of shampoo and conditioner in the shower instead of the sample sizes you typically see Also they have the option to borrow items, like board games, kitchen supplies, and umbrellasIt was a great stay for a great price!

Nice clean hotel with great views and clean interior Room had a fridge, dishwasher, and decent closet space Modern feel and very clean

Breakfast was unimpressive, this is the first tie I’ve encountered egg patties Sausage patties were also sub-par and dry Much less than I’m used to at Marriot hotels The shower brain was backed up and the elliptical in the gym seems like its on its last leg But it was an enjoyable stay in a clean hotel

This is the first hotel I’ve ever taken my son for spring break and something fun for us to do We chose this one because of the amazing pool they have All of the staff were very pleasant and helpful and kind

We had a nice breakfast and a lot of options available As somebody that frequents hotels very often I have to say that the cleanliness and the customer service is definitely top-notch and we will be back again We had a wonderful experience for my son who is autistic that means everything for us Thanks!!Alisha

Amanda Bliemeister

Excellent service, everyone was very kind and thorough We decided on this hotel as we have two small kids, 2 and 4, both love the water The pool here is excellent, great area that is only 1

5-2 ft deep At deepest is 4 ft My kids had a great time at the pool Biggest critique is that the it is quite cold, the room and the water There is an entrance/exit outside from the pool that people are constantly in and out of that didnt help at all We had to take breaks to warm back up, especially my 2 year old Room was standard, clean and comfortable It was quiet at night Recommend to buy one of their combo packages to include breakfast as it is quite expensive otherwise

Benjamin Schmelmer

Great Location and as usual for Garden Inns perfect Service and RoomsI love the Garden Inns for their reasonable Prices and their always Great ComfortAlot of parking Spaces, friendly Personnel and great Breakfast

I was thrilled with my experience at the Graduate Ann Arbor The hotel is so unique and this will be my location anytime I am in town for work It is convenient for local transportation and also just walking around to different restaurants and activities in the area

They staff members who checked me and were polite and efficient and the on-site restaurant, coffee bar, and alcohol bar are all phenomenal The room was clean, spacious and very unique because of all of the small things that they do to stay in theme with the University of Michigan I would highly recommend this hotel to anybody in the area I had colleagues that stayed at the residence Inn, Marriott Courtyard and others and then of their experiences compared to mine

Rita Petteys

I loved my, although short, excellent stay at The Graduate From arrival, all the staff were extremely helpful I was unsure of the parking situation, having not had a lot of time to prepare for the trip

The valet was outstanding in helping me understand the parking options This was Friday, July 29th, and I didn’t catch the young man’s name, but kudos to him for being so helpful and helping our stay start in the right way Kudos to the hotel for having a well-prepared staff! Secondly, the front desk staff was equally excellent Friday night’s check in staff was friendly and efficient And the young man who helped us check out on Saturday was excellent as well He helped us with luggage holding and took care to make sure our items that needed refrigeration were handled and then brought them back to us when we were ready to depart Then the valet on Saturday who retrieved our car – again, perfect we didn’t have any folding currency to tip him, but we had loads of coins and gave him two fistfuls of change To that young man, I apologize that we had to inconvenience you with so much change, but I am hoping that this review brings you and your excellent co-workers some appreciation and additional esteem from the hotel’s management both in Ann Arbor and from the corporate headquarters Customer Service is not a lost art The Graduate Hotel in Ann Arbor has proved that! Way to go!

Sven Tietz

Amazes me that there are negative reviews at all A wonderful hotel in a wonderful location, excellent rooms and decor and lobby Really lovely stay

Nifty design of the table lamps that makes plugs and charging easy – nicely doneOnly criticism I would have is the fitness facilities are sub standard, not enough equipment in a really cramped room, with covid this not a great setupBut you won’t want to exercise during your stay anyway so it doesn’t matter 😉

Cindy Long

Stayed two nights with them No housekeeping given after the first night Only excuses given, short staffed, they need to turn the rooms over

No apologies, no offer to adjust bill So much for that you will be 100% satisfied or they will make it rightWe stayed Mon, Tues, looked pretty empty in parking lot both daysCheap coffee maker, afraid to push the buttons it felt like it was falling apart2 people staying in the room and you offer 1 reg and 1 decafShould have taken the time to read more reviews myself This is a on going issue here Maybe time to get rid of the management who continues making this an acceptable stayThere are plenty of other places

Donna Robichaud

I had a reservation that was to take place after an appointment out of town so that I didn’t have to drive back home in a blizzard I was not able to make it to my appointment due to icy roads and had to turn around and head home I called to cancel my reservation at appr 4:30 pm and the desk clerk told me that only the manager can cancel reservations and he was gone for the day

Then I asked if there was an assistant manager that could authorize it and he was ALSO gone for the day! He told me the best he could do was have me call the manager in the morning Well then I become a no-show and they can charge me the room fee How convenient! I told him I have never had this happen before and I will not be staying here again if this is how they manage this motel I booked it through my AAA account, and couldn’t cancel on their page either so I’m screwed either way

K. Rochelle Harris

I’ve contemplated on writing this review for several reasons: The hotel itself is beautiful and well maintained The guest services staff has been a horrifying experience for us! In fact, it has been our housekeeper that has made us feel welcomed when the customer service should have existed at the point of us making our reservation then upon check-inReview your folio and credit card statement carefully! I made our reservation with Tom who it many terms almost was suggesting we not book this location ( wish I’d followed those first instincts)

He made our reservation quoting $134/night and about an hour later I received a confirmation email confirming the rate Check-in was definitely lacking customer service, so much that I asked the guest services rep to soften his tone as we were guests He did do so We asked to extend our stay another night for a family event and was quoted the same rate of $134; I asked why the rate didn’t decrease after the peak time and was told it would decrease slightly, but not by much ( an odd answer) Upon checking out the folio had a different charge for each night ( $134 night 1, $169 night 2, and $144 night 3) with taxes, etc Our total was to me $149 Our credit card was charged a total of $700!!!The guest services rep Ryan advised rates could change and he couldn’t adjust it even though our reservation said $134 He had me email the hotel a copy of our credit card charges and the rate shown on the reservation He advised that his manager Nator would be giving me a call that day After hearing from Nator, I called back and was told Ryan lied All of my other calls and emails have gone unanswered Knowing that I also talked to Nator 3 hours before check-in and he too confirmed our rate as being $134 I’m deeply concerned as to why all of the variances on both our card and guest folio? It seems highly unethical and sad that we’re being forced to file a complaint for what otherwise would have been an excellent stay!

We recently hosted a celebration of life here for my mother Vincent and Daisy were so kind and helpful! They made the process so easy for us When we arrived at the agreed upon setup time, all chairs and tables were set up for us so all we had to do was decorate

It is a lovely venue in a quiet, serene neighborhood There was plenty of space for all our guests and everyone had a wonderful time celebrating my mom’s beautiful life! I cannot thank Vincent and Daisy enough for being so accommodating and kind and for offering us such a beautiful space to host such an important, memorable event!

Great location and proximity to downtown Detroit Quick on and off the highway Complimentary breakfast was delicious and there was no shortage of options for all tastes

Workout facility and pool area seem to be well-maintained and clean Rooms were able to accommodate our group and had satisfactory amenities however one recommendation…The room needs better ventilation Windows cannot be cracked and the bathroom fan was not working Overall, I would recommend this location and I plan on staying there in the future

Amber Nebinger

The place exceeded our expectations The rooms are huge, very clean, and the balcony was so nice having, rarely do you get a balcony at a hotel! The staff was incredible, Tea Renee at the front desk was so helpful throughout our stay and so friendly All of the staff was great! The two free drinks a night at the bar are also a plus

We will be staying here again if we come back to the Livonia area! Loved embassy suites!

Aaliyah

My boyfriend and I stayed herevery nice and clean We really appreciated Tea Renee! She sold us on It

She’s a front desk employee Very gregarious spirit and welcoming She gave us the inside on what to do and what to eat She treated us as if we were special guests It’s so hard to get decent customer service let lone amazing customer service I hope they promote her and give her a raise If you are ever there request for her You will not be disappointed

Name Unknown

there were dirty underwear when pulling out the sofa bed, the floor wasn’t vacuumed well, and the bed was made messy There wasn’t any coffee pot for the room They need to have better housekeeping and not rush and actually care about the room being clean

Breakfast lady was nice but a lot of things were out of stock (no coffee lids, juice was watered down, no sugar substitutes) Giving atleast 2 stars because the coffee in the lobby is decent 🤷🏼‍♀️

Liz Yvonne

Clean beds, easy access to exits, lots of parking and all the amenities to keep kids happy Pool 😃 breakfast 😃 and wifi! 😃 The pool and laundry room needed some cleaning Fitness room was great, had plenty of towels and many machines! Tv in it too! Overall it’s a great place to stay

Sadly we weren’t able to have any of evening foods or dinner due to staff shortages

kevin drako

Unfortunately the room had several hairs in shower and even one across the TV screen as the static held it but ya couldn’t miss it Some rust color type spots in the shower and the shower door was unhinged but nowhere to hinge it on It appeared to be broken off

For a Staybridge which I am now in one in Iowa City doesn’t compare to the one I’m now in So I gave it a 3 only because the service was good otherwise it would be a 2 and if u didn’t know Staybridge I’d probably not stay in another one I can only hope they improve this one

Peter Kramp

A quick overnight for us in transit The stay was good The hotel is a little older so the bathrooms are a bit small and a few other give-aways to its age, but pretty well kept

Bed was comfortable, everyone was friendly and we enjoyed a good breakfast in the morning We received friendly service with a smile from Skyler despite being being short staffed Nice to see management pitching in to help!

Sierra Davis

This was my first stay at this hotel It was an overall nice stay The beds were exceptionally comfortable

And the rooms were comfy Ac worked very well and wasn’t too loud We enjoyed the pool and the hot tub However I wasn’t at all impressed with the breakfast For the cost of one night here, you would think that breakfast would be included in the price We were unaware that it was not complimentary It wasn’t clearly marked I was also surprised that there were no vending machines and you had to buy water or soda at the area beside the desk I bought a water and it was 3 dollars Seems a little ridiculous for the amount of money you already pay for the room Also this isn’t the most kid friendly Seems more geared for conventions and business more than family oriented

Morgan Sonstegard

We enjoyed our stay Myah at the front desk was amazing! She was very attentive to my family needs And by the end of our trip she knew the whole family! The restaurants and bar staff were very friendly and timely

Cassandra and Stephanie work hard and provide great service They were attentive to my infant and always topped off my mug with hot coffee I would stay here again Two thumbs up!

We stayed here for one night, before the Mid-American Poms State Championship at the EMU Convocation Center, a quick and easy 5 minute drive away Check in was quick and easy, and we were able to get into our room an hour before check in timeOur room was very clean and fresh

Everything worked without issue and it was very comfortable There was a mini fridge and microwave, which was nice The hotel itself was also clean and comfortable We didn’t use the pool or hot tub, but it looked very niceThe breakfast area was on the small side, and the choices were limited to the usual continental breakfast choices, but it was a nice breakfast The Bearclaw Coffee was excellent!Hotel staff was very attentive and friendly I would recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a pleasant, clean friendly place to stay, close to major roads and attractionsThank you Ann Arbor Regent Hotel for the great stay!

Jennie Kackley

If I could have given this hotel and more importantly, the staff 100 stars, I would have My daughter is on a collegiate cheer team and EMU was hosting the NAIA national competition this last weekend The hotel hosted the kids and coaches on the team plus all of the families traveling in from Missouri

First, Kathy and the entire staff were amazing We were all on a first name basis when we left From making sure we had what we needed and the space to make it happen to accommodating last minute rooms as their bus broke down and they had to stay an extra day Everyone was so much fun Every interaction with staff was positive and sweet The rooms were clean and my son loved the pool and shuffleboard table!I’m just glad we found you all! Thanks for making our stay so much fun!

Dana Cook

Over the last 20 years I have stayed in numerous hotels around Ann Arbor The Ann Arbor Regent has been the best we have stayed at It is super clean, renovated nicely and has a wonderful pool and spa area

The staff is so polite and accommodating and the ladies that clean the rooms are thorough and so very nice I wish we could give the Ann Arbor Regent 10 stars Thank you for making our stay a pleasant one We will be back I also want to offer a shout out to Michelle at the front desk She was so pleasant from the moment we walked through the door and she welcomed us so warmly!

I enjoyed my stay here I had fallen a bit sick at the time of my stay and I was looking forward to cast some of my podcast episodes on the TV but the TVs only let you put channels So I found the Office in here and had an okay time

The breakfast given is standard breakfast, with some fresh fruit Needless to say the employees were really great and helpfulCons:- I did find a used coffee cup in my room, but other than that everything was clean- The stand in showers are a bit slippery- Ground floor rooms are directly exposed to the street

Lynn “Pencilmarks”

You cannot beat this location if you want to be within walking distance to all of main campus Have stayed numerous times as had two kids attend Michigan Rooms have been renovated and much improved

Breakfast provided a nice bonus Always great service, very comfortable beds with nice fluffy (plentiful) pillows and crisp white linens Definitely recommend the $20/day valet parking for the total convenience The giant chess game in the window is fun when folks actually try to play Can move a piece each time you walk by But nobody’s perfect 😉 Would be 5 stars if rooms had mini fridge and they could upgrade the elevator service (notoriously slow, ya gotta be patient!) Highly recommend

Christina Lange

Such a cute hidden gem! It was in walking distance to do many great food and shopping locations Stayed here for a overnight getawayBreakfast was amazing and everything in the hotel was very aesthetically pleasing

The employees are kind and very professionalOnly issue I had was the sleep quality The mattress was quite uncomfortable and the pillows are the kind where your head sinks all the way thru Lots of tossing and turning unfortunately But I’d still stay here again regardless

What outstanding staff, The Bistro staff too!!!The breakfast was so amazing, even though it was expensive, and the pool was amazing even without a hot tube for mum, we enjoyed our stay here so muchWe will be back, and are looking forward to it!Thank you for allowing my children who have autism to feel welcome as they played, ran around a bit much, and may have caused a bit of a ruckus without a complaint about their behaviorI did have a man during the day who wasn’t pleasant, but whatever you never know what anyone is going through these days

James Wilson

This use to be a beautiful spot with awesome serviceTo be honest though they used to be a beautiful place with high 4 star service Now though they’re staff is short and they’re attitude shows it

This location use to have 7 day a week breakfast, lunch, dinner and late drinks available at least 6 days a week Now you’re lucky to get 3 days a week of breakfast, lunch, dinner and drink service

Cristina Denise

I would have given more stars, however they over charge for room rates, the wifi was non working I booked online and was quoted 200 for the night as a member, got here they upped my price 20 dollars Over priced hotel

Stayed one year ago and paid 100 which seems to be what it should have been for the night I only needed a room to be close to the UofM medicine school to test in the morning but next time I’ll stay elsewhere

This is a beautiful hotel with a lot of historical portrait all around The rooms are nice and clean but they are like your a standard hotel rooms The event rooms are nice and big and you can decorate them how you like

The staff was very friendly and helpful for everything And the food was okay it looked really pretty The only thing is the parking is very minimal so if you are there for an event you might have some walking to do But it’s really close to the mall and other restaurant so there is a lot of things to get into around the hotel as well Overall I would recommend staying at this hotel it’s nice and a good location

I have been meaning to write this review for months now and am finally remembering!My husband and I got married here October 16 2021 We had our ceremony in the courtyard area outside and our reception inside in the grand ballroom Let me start by saying that everything was truly beautiful, exactly how we imagined it to be decorated and Leah is absolutely fantastic at what she does! She is a great wedding coordinator and incredibly kind and accommodating!A few key things that really stood out to my husband and I and made the experience that much better for us:•My bridal party was a little too big for the bridal suite that they let brides use, so we were able to get the suite my husband and I stayed in the night of our wedding a day early so morning of we could have access to it to get ready

•I was dead set on having my ceremony outdoors and it didn’t rain the day of, but it was wet from rain the day before, they put mats down over the super wet parts and had guests avoid that area for sitting/standing•And the BIGGEST thing for us, I have a gluten allergy and so do a few of my family members, all of the food (except the vegetarian dish) were prepared gluten free so that I didn’t have to worry about anything and possibly getting sick on my wedding day (The guests didn’t even know it was gluten free!) And they were extremely accommodating of any other dietary restrictions while the food was still delicious (Dairy free, nut allergy etc)And at the end of the night, the staff helping with our reception loaded up a cart with our decorations, gifts and brought it all to our room!Thank you to the wonderful staff, we had a very memorable wedding and it was exactly how we imagined it to be!!

Probably years late writing this, but I am able to have an honest opinion now from both sides I was a guest there about 10 years ago and had a wedding reception there The food was excellent, the ballroom was beautiful and clean, and the staff kept everything running so smoothly, that I always remember and cherish that time I had with my family and friends

The room was clean and comfortable, and they left complimentary chocolate covered strawberries and champagne My only complaint was the thermostat was broken in the room at the time, so we wound up checking out a bit early to go on our trip But I’m certain maintenance got on it after the fact, as I’ve seen things are taken care of as soon as possible We were only staying really a few hours after the reception so it wasn’t a big enough deal to call about10 years later, I work there part time so I’ve gotten to see more of the ins and outs of things I’m new so I don’t really have an opinion bias as of yet, and can see through the eyes still of a prior guest I’m still trying to understand the back end storage system, but the first thing I noticed and continue to notice when I walk in is how clean in general the place is in the guest areas at least that I’ve been to so far I’ve worked custodial jobs at other places, and it’s not typical that things appear that clean by the end of the day The attention to detail throughout the day that the staff gives really shows Nobody can ever be 100% perfect, but my first impressions from the culture there so far is that they strive for that, and seem to care about their workers as they care about the guests Even if COVID has altered the way services in most hotels run (as I’ve experienced on travels to other hotels), Kensington places an emphasis on guest care regardless what position their employees hold, and everyone tries to chip in to get things doneSo far my opinion is that I would be comfortable staying at Kensington and would gladly do a reception there again

We were in town for a funeral, so we weren’t going to be using some if the listed amenities That was a good thing, golf course closed for renovation, no mention of that on the website when I was booking the room Lots of construction in process to do an upgrade to the facility

The waterfall garden was very nice and the church/chapel is beautiful Our room was very nice, but to get room temperature below 74 had to set to 69 degrees, then set at 71 when it was almost too cool Temperature in the room then went back up to 74, too warm Obviously there is a problem with the thermostat, didn’t bother to complain because we were really in the room a short timeEveryone at the desk and the steakhouse was friendly and helpful

Always look forward to photographing weddings here because the venue not only treats their couples/guests great, but also the vendors! The ladies are awesome before the ceremony, they fluff the dress and handle everything so the photographer can focus on capturing the moments The manager in charge during the reception space was so helpful, asking if we, the wedding vendors, needed anything and assisted promptly whenever asked a question They are great at transitioning guests from ceremony, to cocktail hour to reception making it for a great experience! Not to mention, the hotel rooms are great for getting ready photos and the outdoor spaces provide ample location opportunities for photos giving the couple a variety without having to travel!

I was here to take advantage of the Taste of Plymouth event that The Inn at St John’s hostedI was not a guest of the hotel and I did not dine in the hotel restaurantI gave a positive review because the facility is beautiful and historic and it is very well maintained and there are lovely plantings and water features and things to see and enjoy

If you ever have the opportunity to come for Taste of Plymouth, it’s a great chance to try as much as little as you like of a lot of different restaurants and I was told to come hungry and I went away very full
