Corktown, Midtown, and Downtown Detroit offer endless options for hotels and rentals at all budgets. Let us know if we can provide a recommendation for a specific area! If you're staying downtown, you'll likely encounter high fees for overnight parking at your hotel; however, both metered and free on-street parking are available (there is no charge for parking before 8 a.m., after 10 p.m., or any time Sunday). Casinos offer free parking.

Transportation:

On-street parking is available in our neighborhood, but, if you live close by or staying in a local hotel, we recommend taking an Uber/Lyft. Both are widely available in Metro Detroit.

Corktown, Midtown, and Downtown Detroit are all walkable. A streetcar (the QLine) and monorail (the People Mover) are free public transportation options in these areas. Scooters (Lime, Spin) and bikes (MoGo) are also available to rent.
