NO --

Detroit has the worst mass transit in the world ....

There are a few hotels in the downtown area-- Hilton Garden Inn, Courtyard by Marriot, and Marriot at the Ren Cen -- and all of these are within walking distance of the stadium.

Otherwise, a car is essential.

Ann Arbor is a different story -- but we only have the number two or three college football team in the country -- and that status will change after the Ohio State game in a few weeks..
