About the host
Hosted by Brittany
Why they chose this property
This is my only listing and is behind our house, which we’ve owned and have been fixing up for 10+ years. We live in a historic area of Detroit with some walkable coffee shops and bars — though the bar is a little longer of a walk. It’s a comfortable community with lots of charm and easily accessible to downtown / midtown and entertainment venues.
What makes this property unique
The bathroom has the original cast iron, clawfoot tub and sink. The floors are original (painted) hardwood. The space is a cozy, quiet, and private alternative to downtown hotels in a nice to walk through neighborhood with a coffee shop and bar nearby.
