The tanks & rooms here
The classic enclosed capsule with a hinged lid. Deepest sensory deprivation; you lie down and pull the lid to.
The room itself is the vessel: no hatch, walk straight in. Great for claustrophobia and easier access.

From the reviews
I always book the 1-hour float. It's my go-to reset after a stressful week or when I'm sore from workouts. The experience is incredibly relaxing. You step into a spacious private room with a foot-deep pool of warm salt water.
Phenomenal Experience at Motor City Float - A Heartfelt Thank You to Petra! From the moment I made my way to Motor City Float, the experience was nothing short of exceptional. Despite being five minutes late due to unforeseen circumstances, I was met with nothing but understanding and kindness.
I love this place!! Just had another Swedish style sauna and cold plunge session that they call Fire and Ice. It's so relaxing. I feel like all the stress in my body is released every time I do it. If you want even more, follow that up by an hour in the flotation tank. Talk about being relaxed...

Your first float at Motor City Float
Never floated before? Almost no one has their first time, and a good center expects it. Here's what to know. What it is: you float effortlessly in about ten inches of skin-temperature water saturated with around 1,000 lbs of Epsom salt — so dense you cannot sink. In the dark and quiet, with no light, sound, or gravity to react to, your nervous system downshifts. Before you come: don't shave or wax for a day beforehand (salt stings fresh cuts — they'll have barrier ointment if you nick yourself), skip caffeine, eat a light meal an hour or two before, and remove contacts. If you colored your hair recently, wait a few days. In the tank: shower first, put earplugs in before you get wet, and keep a fresh-water spray bottle within reach for salt in the eyes. You can leave the light or music on until you settle, then turn them off from inside. Hold your arms out for the first 20–30 seconds to stop bobbing, then let go. It takes a few tries — the first 20 minutes are usually your mind winding down. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to shower and get oriented.
