The property(LYH) was beautiful! Our communication with our host was great and they answered all our questions. Staying at LYH was pretty much like being at home. The home has been renovated and looks quite fresh and new. Checking in and out was easy and every amenity was provided. They had even shoveled for us. The outside was as nice as the inside and has a great space for you and your pets. On our visit, one of the best features was the great heating, since it was quite cold and snowy while we were there. The property is close to everything in Ferndale, close to the Detroit Zoo and the Royal Oak community. The neighboorhood is quiet and easy to navigate.We really enjoyed our visit and will be staying again.

We appreciated the clear communication and found the property to be clean and well kept. A few things to note for future guests: the downstairs living area could benefit from additional adult friendly seating and tables as currently there’s just one TV with a small couch, small round end tables, and a few bean bags. We also didn’t see any kitchen towels and noticed the sponges under the sink were older.Check out was at 11am, and we were contacted twice regarding our departure time due to a quick turnover, which made us feel a bit rushed. We didn’t reach out during our stay because we were busy and the listing noted the owners live nearby and are very responsive so to be fair, some of these items may have been resolved quickly if we had asked.Overall, a nice stay with good communication, just sharing this feedback in hopes it’s helpful for future guests.

The house was very comfortable and close to everything we wanted to do. The owners were also very responsive. The power was out when we first arrived, due to no fault of them, but they refunded us for the first night. We highly recommend staying here.

Every thing we needed!

I won’t lie, I have stayed a lot of places that were disappointing. This place knocked it out of the park for our needs! I had a 15 month old who had a place to play and run around safely. Netflix available with the touch of a button, to distract her with Ms. Rachel as I set up the space! There were toys and other baby things available! It even had small touches like a fan and a sound machine! All things for us to feel like we were home. It was very clean and I well taken care of! The host was very responsive! Overall 10/10!

Walking distance to all the sights in Ferndale, but far enough from the main streets to keep things quiet at night. The space was cozy, small but had everything I needed to make my trip a success. Liz and Zach were great hosts and communicated the perfect amount.

Weekend getaway

A friend of mine for over 40 years and I took a weekend together in Detroit for my birthday - this house was perfect. Exactly as listed, but with more charm. Quiet neighborhood, walking distance to some great shops and food, comfortable, well appointed, and immaculately clean. One of those places you just wish you had some more time to just "hang", and dive into the well stocked library. Great internet, appliances, washer/dryer - thanks for the perfect getaway.
