10/10 Exceptional

Cozy stay with a welcoming atmosphere
The Kensington hotel is very large with many hallways yet it still felt cozy. The restaurant, Relish, was very welcoming and comfortable. The staff were very attentive and friendly, especially Haylee, I believe her name was. The selection was limited yet the food was delicious. The only issue I had was the bed felt too soft for my back. The room was spacious and quiet which I enjoyed. I would definitely stay here again.

8/10 Very good

Pretty decent place. Very quiet and you located next to the mall and restaurants!! And it takes no longer than 10 mins to get to a lot of attractions. The only thing is they did not serve breakfast. You had to pay for things like muffins and things of that nature. There were other hotels close that offered that option!

4/10 Fair

Stains, bugs and dirty toilet!!
We have stayed at the Kensington Hotel in Ann Arbor a few times and it's always been very good. However, this trip was not up to par! My husband and son stayed this time and the room was NOT clean!! It was late, they were exhausted after a 10 hour drive and they didn't want to change rooms, so my husband just cleaned it up, but there were dried stains on the bathroom counter, hair in the sink, 2 ants crawling around the bathroom floor and a floater in the toilet!!! EEWWW!!! He took photos and showed them to the manager in the morning, but she only said she would talk to housekeeping and he could get an upgrade for a future stay!

6/10 Good

Go elsewhere if you need an “accessible” room.
We had an “accessible” room. The shower had inadequate grab bars (not enough, and not well placed), the toilet was exceptionally low and there was no grab bar to aid in getting up, and the bathroom was very cold — not heated, and the outside temperature was less than 10 degrees. Very uninviting and inconvenient for an “accessible” room. Aside from the room, the place was perfectly ok.

Nice hotel!!
Very pleased with the accommodations. The front desk was friendly and helpful. The room was clean and the beds were very comfortable. We left early so we opted not to include breakfast. An easy drive to U of M hospital. I would definitely stay again!
