Rented an apartment here for one year. Here's our pros and cons:Pros:Our unit had amazing views and really great sound insulation between units.Our unit was nicely finished and fresh (finishes vary depending on owner) .The hotel staff was very sweet to us on all counts.Cons:Elevators were a recurrent issue and we experienced stretches of time where we had no elevators at all.Our unit's bathrooms often smelled like weed from someone smoking in another unit.Our unit only had one parking spot for a 3br, and nearby parking averages $260/mo (although our current lot has a waitlist, so make sure you can find somewhere with available spots). The HOA seems to be a bit vindictive-- one renter had a car towed from their spot even though they had informed management that they approved of this other car using their spot). My car was threatened to be towed a few times even though I was parking where I was told by building management.Resident's front desk is not well managed. Maintenance threw out one of my boxes without asking the on-site manager, and there was no accountability for this.Building fire alarm system had issues. False alarms from hotel take a long time to turn off, and one time we had an actual fire which was wrongly declared a false alarm. There was serious water damage to many units in the building as a result, so those with mold sensitivities might want to check to make sure their unit is ok.

The units are sizable, the views are great and the location is close enough to downtown while having great parking.The homeowners are still working through issues to make this a premium location. Things like package delivery/storage amd cleaning service need to be worked out with the management company.

Unit 21E has been on the market for two years. I made an offer two years ago, offer was accepted, but I backed out at final inspection due to roof leaks! Caveat Emptor.

Our unit and many others frequently smell like marijuana and cigarette smoke. Had to delay giving our son a bath, because his bathroom often smells like marijuana and cigarette smoke. Elevators always smell like marijuana. Even though it’s a non-smoking condo building, the management company does not enforce the rules or properly notify residents that their smoking impacts other people. Fire alarms go off at random times from Hotel Guest smoking inside rooms. On weekends hotel guest are fist fighting outside the property occasionally and often arguing loudly or partying.Many of our great neighbors have left. Parking situation is currently a mess now.The units do have nice views and location is great. Hotel staff is amazing and friendly. Many have become great friends.At this time, I would not recommend this place to a friend or family member.

Who would want to live around acres of parking? This area of downtown continues to see rampant demolition of historic structures that makes for an empty experience. Look elsewhere.

What’s going on with the smell inside the two entrances? This problem was not happening doing the summer. Once the heat came on the smell from the dumpsters was terrible. Please get this fixed!

Horrible location, surrounded by parking lots. You can pay the same for an apartment in a real city. Don’t waste your money in Parking Lot City (aka Detroit)

My favorite part about this location is how close I am to parking

Decent but boring. Bad views, nothing walkable.

The developer trying to demolish a historic building for surface parking spaces is some classically uninspired Michigan business-as-usual. It is perhaps time for us to think about new paradigms, like how to help people get around without simply driving everywhere.
