Thanks for your stay at my Downtown Berkley Upper Flat. I hope you were able to enjoy the offerings of Berkley and were able to interact with the neighborhood.
We had a great visit here. Robert’s place is ideally located for easy travel to great food and shopping. Royal Oak, Berkley, and Birmingham are all super close and it was also close to the freeway so we took trips to Ann Arbor and downtown easily as well. The place is really nice, well appointed and super clean. We were worried when we checked in and felt the floor shaking from the karate studio underneath but it turned out not to be a problem at all and was closed by the time we got back in the afternoon each day. Robert was extremely responsive and very helpful as well.
