OK, I like DTW a lot too, BUT, there are two (related) problems with it -
1) The meditation room is terrible! Its hard to find, its via an elevator that implies only staff can ride it, and down a long, non-descript corridor into an ugly room that doesn't feel... inspiring of meditation, for sure.
2) There is no airport observation room like there is at MSP (or at least I haven't found it yet - is there one somewhere at DTW?)
Now, I haven't checked on MSP's meditation room (is there one?) but with the airport observation room I don't need to (and don't ask why....)

2) At DTW, you get nice views from the North and South World Clubs and from either end of the A concourse.... (I haven't been to puddle jumper land since it was expanded).

I just went through DTW for the first time since the new NW terminal was opened. What an awesome improvement!!!
