A little disappointed
Pros:

Great location, big room for the money

Cons:

Room was supposed to be on ground floor and was not. My room was also supposed to have a pull out bed which it did not have either. The room Could have been a little cleaner and outside fire pit or grills did not work.

It was on
Pros:

Breakfast was ok. Same food all 3 days. Not enough bacon made. Ppl dk how to share. They would take ALL that was made

Cons:

The carpets are rather gross. Our white socks were black on the bottoms. It was clean enough, the room. The pool could def use more attention. Lots of hair in the pool which is gross. Ppl were friendly.

Cons:

I dont feel like I should be paying. Almost $300 a night to take out my own trash and towels. Wasn’t able to get extra blankets or pillows. Check in staff was a little rude and unhelpful

Good location for visiting family
Pros:

This is our second time staying at this Staybridge location as we find it to be ideal for visiting family in the Detroit metro and Flint areas. It is also situated behind a Holiday Inn and therefore does not get as much road noise at night.
The suite was very big with a separate bedroom. The bed was large and comfortable.
The man working the desk in the afternoons/evenings was always upbeat and fun to talk to.
We weren’t sure of the housekeeping situation but they came by almost everyday we put our magnet out!

Cons:

We noticed the room is showing more wear since our last visit (in 2021) which is understandable. However, it seems the cleaning in the room stays very surface level and many areas are overlooked (ex: white stains on side of desk). This gives the room a bit of a grimy feel.
We always showed up to the breakfast area at least a half hour before it closed but there were always things out of stock. This often included fruit as well as the biscuits and gravy (which made me extra sad because the breakfast lady promised it would be there on our last morning, however, it clearly was never set out).
The air conditioning unit is set up in the bedroom so can be noisy at night.
Also, very weird but for the first few nights of our stay we woke up to an empty Pokémon box for trading cards outside our door. We would throw it away but it would make its way back to our room.

Comfy & Clean!
Pros:

The location was great, right on the main road, but still tucked away so that it felt private. The breakfast was very good, the yogurt bar was a great addition! We are also pretty impressed with how big the rooms all were.

Cons:

I wish the hotel had a shuttle that could bring you to Pine Knob.

Pros:

Every staff member and the manager I met, were personable, helpful, courteous, and professional. They are a cut above many places I have stayed in my life of travels. In this day and age, where no one seems to understand the meaning of Customer Service, they were exceptional. As a sidelight, the food there is exceptional, including breakfast. If I’m in Auburn Hills again, I will stay there.
