14 adults and 2 infants stayed at this great , tastefully-decorated house ,and we hosted 50 more (on a come & go basis) for brunch and everyone fit happily! It's a lovely, spacious place and provided a perfect spot to make warm memories on a wedding weekend. The 1st & 2nd floors are clones of each other, with spacious kitchens, LRs & DRs -- so we had bagels and coffee downstairs and Middle Eastern food & champagne upstairs for the Sunday brunch following Saturday's wedding. Could not have worked out better! David, the host, was practically instantaneous in his communications with us, answering our questions. We went to the Motown Museum Friday (reserve in advance!), a short walk. And if you have time, take the 3/4 mile walk down West Grand to the Fisher Building which is stunning! The weather cooperated and we had a wonderful time, leaving with fond memories of Detroit and our Motown home!

We had a large group stay for weekend to tailgate at the lions game Sunday and enjoy Detriot and what is has to offer. This is an amazing place to stay!! So clean we just felt so comfortable lounging around and enjoying the house. The house is themed Motown as it’s a few doors down the the Motown museum. It done to perfection, not at all over done or

EVERYTHING about this place was exceptional. It is 1/2 block from Motown Museum. We felt like we were immersed in the history of Motown - from the artwork, the jukeboxes on every floor, and the little memorabilia touches in this property. You could FEEL this history of Motown! The amenities themselves - PLENTY of everything- anything we needed - already there! The sleeping spaces were all private and comfy. Property manager was super attentive- we really didn’t need anything but when I emailed a question - I had an immediate response. Attended a wedding on the riverfront downtown - VERY SHORT UBER ride which was much less expensive the parking in that area. You will not regret booking this spacious, meticulous space!

Our group consisted of 12 family members and one close friend. Our son's wedding was held on East Grand which made this location perfect. David was easily accessible and very responsive although we really didn't have any issues to speak of.

The house was Amazing! We were there for a long weekend with a large group of friends and it was perfect for the 14 of us! It was clean and there was plenty of room for us to spread out or be together! Location was great! only a 10 minute drive from downtown! David was an excellent host and super prompt with communication. Highly recommended staying here!

This will be indepth - tl;dr: The vrbo is amazing, highly recommended especially for large groups, the area is safe, and the owners communicated in a timely manner and with great information. 1. The number of beds: There are 4 private rooms off of the first and second floor with a queen bed each. There are 2 more rooms with bunkbeds that are a queen+full. On the third floor is a private room with a queen bed and a loft in a large common room with a twin bed. There are many couches that can hold less picky people as well. 2. The neighborhood is safe, there is a hospital with private security as well as a police department just blocks away. There are rundown houses, but the area is being renovated. The secured parking can hold 4-5 cars, we had no problems with people parking on the street. Lyft and Uber operated in area. 3. The house is amazing. It was well cleaned, there are gas stoves on two levels, showers had good pressure and heat, the little touches like the jukeboxes, record players, and 8 track players truly made the Motown theming great instead of tacky / cheaply themed. 4. We talked a lot with owner due to being from out of town and coordinating a private wedding event here. The communication was prompt, we were made aware of any issues with the property ahead of time, and finally, this property was free from some of the frustrating micromanagement that is all too common in short term rentals these days.

I surprised my friends and family with the Motown BNB and a Stevie Wonder impersonator for my birthday weekend in the D. The lower level was the perfect backdrop for Stevie's performance and a dance party afterwards. 11 of us enjoyed all of the amenities and the spaciousness of the house. The host David responded right away to any questions or concerns. An exceptional stay overall. Would definitely return!

I was pleasantly surprised by the size of the unit. We were here for a bachelor party and the house still felt pretty big.
