The building is beautiful and the host and hostess very kind and pleasant. However, the building is on as busy street and very noisy. It was telling that there are white noise generators in each room. We were moved from our original rooom, the most expensive, to another not facing the street. The second night was worse, with a neighbor playing loud music until 1:30 in the morning. I sleep with earplugs and they could not keep out the noise. We left six hours later. I would never return.

The Stearns is an incredibly unique stay. It’s a classic Tudor mansion that operates as much lore of a quaint Old English Inn that a hotel, so go in with that and you will love it. Somewhat between downtown and Gross Pointe. Across from the UAW, so perfect if you are going there for UAW work.

I was looking for a Bed and Breakfast near the MGM Grand for my fiancée's birthday weekend (I know, what a combination), and stumbled upon this place through Google. I was blown away by the pictures and was also impressed with the amount of positive reviews. So I booked a nights stay in the Rose Room. From the moment we pulled up, I knew that I had made the right decision. The owner has done an unbelievable job restoring the place, and has clearly put her heart and soul into every intricate detail. Check in was smooth and easy, and we got a brief tour. After that, we were on our own. We made our way down into the basement speakeasy (a honor, self serve system) and turned on some music. Every room in the house conjured previous memories of a time forgotten. The room was beautiful, cozy and spacious. Before we left, the owner showed us some before pictures and we got to learn a little about her story. She said something profound regarding her world travels. "It's all about how a place makes you feel." The Frederick Stearns House BnB made us FEEL incredible. A place we will not soon forget. My fiancée created unforgettable memories and endless laughs. If you get a chance, book a night or two here. You will never regret choosing this place over a hotel. Learn some local history and support local. We have told our friends and family about it, and also hope to return one day. I wish I could give my experience here more than 5 stars.

Very historical house

The place and the host is perfect. The best place to stay in Detroit. Will come back and will bring friends for a great weekend. Everything about the place is wonderful.

We loved the accommodations! Such a unique and historic home. Beautiful furnishings, rooms, and the bar in the lower level was an an amazing plus! Loved every minute and have recommended this gem to friends.

Room was very unique and spacious. Very clean. Thankyou for the late checkin. Hosts were very accommodating and super friendly.

The rooms are spacious and nicely decorated. The bed was very comfortable. We got the tour of this beautiful old but renovated hotel. Easy access to comerica park and the tunnel border crossing. This place is definitely our go to hotel now for when we come to Detroit
