Bright. Spacious. Easy enough to move through. For a major airport, the public McNamara restroom situation holds up pretty well. 7/10.

Shooki’s Review of Detroit Metropolitan Airport — McNamara Terminal
By Shooki · Source published August 2026
Bright. Spacious. Easy enough to move through. For a major airport, the public McNamara restroom situation holds up pretty well. 7/10.
Still, I’ve traveled through a lot of airports around the world, and I’ve got to give Detroit some credit.
McNamara feels more modern, cleaner, and better maintained than plenty of airports that get a lot more attention.

♿️ Accessible 🚼 Baby changing stations 🚪 More private stalls than before ✨ Generally clean
It’s not lounge-level luxury.
It doesn’t need to be.
For a public airport restroom, McNamara lands at a 7/10.
