Great stay.
This was our first time at a B&B. The historic house was beautiful! The owner put so much work and details into restoring this house to its original glory… even gave us a tour & history before we left. Room was comfy and clean. Breakfast was so nice in the dining room. Close to downtown, Belle Isle, river walk.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Property was beautiful! But I was the only one there;I was not aware of where owner was or of any of the safety features of the building. Owner seemed upset when I did not stay the second night because I was scared, I had to eat the )second nights charge. Thought owner could have educated clients about hotel given the location.

We had a wonderful time in this historical property. It was beautifully restored and decorated for the holidays. We took advantage of what the community had to offer with little pocket outdoor markets, fine dining and shopping. We will definitely be back again!

Anniversary & Concert Trip! We came to Detroit to see the Toby Mac/Mercy Me/Zach Williams concert at Little Caesar’s Arena. Celebrating our anniversary, we wanted something more special than a generic hotel. The Frederick Stearns House was perfect! Beautifully restored to turn of the 20th century, the Inn was a wonderful mix of history & modern conveniences. I cannot say enough about the decor. Every turn brought something new to admire—architecture, furniture, artwork… The owner was charming and happily gave us a guided tour when we admired the authentic warming oven in the dining room. We noticed she even “dressed the part”, wearing a flapper-style dress on the first night and art deco blouses after that. We clearly saw how proud she was by her enthusiasm, her care of the Inn and the many small details, like the white-noise maker next to our bed to drown out city noise. We stayed in the Zinnia room which had extra privacy & a luxurious en suite with a deep jacuzzi tub and separate rainfall shower. We were delighted with our choice—especially after discovering the workers at the nearby Casio hotels were on strike! We definitely will be back! Close to LCA, Fox Theater, Windsor, casinos, Ford Field & other attractions.

My husband and I had a great time staying at the B&B on a weekend get-away. We brought our bikes to ride the Detroit riverwalk waterfront and the greenways, which connect all the way to Eastern Market and CorkTown! Lots of dining options. We visited Pewabic Pottery and the Ford House. The owner Rachel was a great host. She is very warm and dedicated to historic inn restoration!
