Hollywood Casino at Greektown
The staff was very courteous at check in and when we walked into our room the smell of bleach ran across our noses which was very pleasant. The room was spotless and the view of Detroit was amazing. I definitely won’t hesitate to stay at this hotel again in the near future.
