About this place Palms Motel

Palms Motel is a basic roadside motel at 29806 Woodward Avenue in the northern part of Royal Oak, Michigan. It is a mainstream place listed as gay-friendly, not a gay venue. There is no website, and the Google rating is low (2.9 from 36 reviews), so read recent reviews and look at photos before booking. Its only real advantage is price and its spot on Woodward, which makes it easy to drive into downtown Royal Oak or south to Ferndale, the area with metro Detroit's gay bars. Expect a no-frills room.

I was happy about the location. Therefore, I went to view this room 1st before paying. I couldn't believe how outdated and old everything looked. Even if they went to thrift stores for linen and each room had different linen... and bought discount paint, fake flowers, etc something to make it brighter.... they could make wonderful changes.. this place is in an upscale nice area near a major popular hospital. I just couldn't believe it looked and smelled so bad. The inside of the refrigerator was broken, very small. The windows were dirty, such depressing darkness in color re: color of bedspread, carpet, dirty air-conditioning heating unit.
