Good value for a place to rest your head
I stayed at the Corktown Inn while working a promo job for the Belle Isle Grand Prix. As a solo female traveler, I would recommend this place. It's not the nicest place, but it's cheap, clean enough, and the staff is nice. After reading some reviews, I had my doubts (especially arriving at 1AM), but the room was clean and I never felt unsafe in the 4 nights I stayed. The only downsides were the old school cigarette smell that permeated EVERYTHING and the incredibly thin walls between rooms. Overall, it did the job, and I plan on staying there every time I work in Detroit!
