the room was clean...hardwood floors which was so much better than carpet! refrigerator worked and kept our drinks cold and beds were comfortable and clean.
we had Room 29, which was in the upper left corner of the motel. there was a business next door to motel outside of our room who kept their outside security lights on all night. our room was never totally dark, but at least we could find bathroom easily at night :) if you prefer a dark room, I would ask for one on the inside and definitely not 29.

The location. Close to Ford Field and Comerica Park (15 minutes walk) Safe area and no homeless on the streets in the area. Plenty of traffic in the evening to feel more than safe on a walk home. (Yet not at all disturbing inside the room I had) Yes, the room have its flaws if you have hotel like expectations and it do have a slight smell of smoke from the inside but nothing major. But it is a pretty cheap motel in close proximity to Downtown Detroit. Nearly half the price of the cheapest alternatives in the area
The AC could have been slightly better. Didn't really feel like it truly worked, but it wasn't that hot so had no real issue And the beforementioned smokey smell. The beds buildup with the plastic on the bottom matress, I undestand it, it just doesn't look that good :)

This older motel is right in the midst of several casinos but very reasonably priced. The lady at check-in was very personable and helpful. It was just a short stay in order to get my global entry interview out of the way. This is the closest and cheapest hotel to the CBP Trusted Traveler Enrollment Center.
There wasn't really anything I disliked.

Great location, easy walk to downtown. View of the Motor City Casino right across the street. Gas station and variety store across the street. Bed was very comfy. Bath could use some caulking but everything was fine. Work table and two chairs. Fridge, Microwave, TV with cable and balcony.
Stain on the sheet, need to caulk around the bathtub

I really liked the inn keeper. She was so helpful and kind. The location was great too, right near were I was attending a show. The motel was very accessible and easy to find. My room was clean and met my needs. It was easy to walk to were I was going that evening. Checking in and out was super easy too!
The weather lol, it was cold!

The owner of this small throwback motel is a delight! Very personable (I suspect she's the original owner.) Lots of nice touches, such as the cheery blue quilt print bedspread, and a picket fence between the posts of the walkway on the lower level -- which I'm sure was the protection needed for the lovely patch of healthy lawn between it and the parking area, creating instant appeal to an older property in this rather worn section of Detroit! Picket fence and grass! -- I'm in Detroit, really? And the bath towels were so soft, not the typical low-budget find!!
The Viking motel shows its age in small, fairly insignificant ways, things not affecting our comfort: insulation visible around the a/c unit, a slightly rusty bath drain. And don't be put off by the homemade covid-secure passthrough for items not fitting through the usual paper & pen tray under the plexiglass in the office: she joked that it "protects people from this mean old lady!" (LOL -- not a mean bone in her body, I'd say!)
