Ann Arbor Summer Weekend

Excellent property, and incredible location in the heart of Ann Arbor. As close as you can get to campus and downtown in many respects, the units were very clean and comfortable. We really enjoyed our time, and Nina made everything easy. Would highly recommend!

Convenient. Comfortable. Flexible.

We had a great stay bringing in my daughter who is enrolling at the UM. Excellent location and walking distance to everything. Team was flexible and accommodated us w early check in and storage of our bags on our check out date. Apartment is clean and well stocked. Bathroom had towels and basics. Kitchen fully stocked and well organized. Will look to stay here again in the future. Give the “Artist Apt” my highest recommendation!!!!

Fantastic location and super well appointed. The apartment was super clean even though the house is older. Parking was a little less than ideal because we had a big car but listing offered great tips for negotiating the narrow garage. Great communication with the owner

Disliked: Listing accuracy
Parking is challenging as the garage is VERY small and people sometimes block you in at the alley. The place was clean with no issues with that. Biggest challenge is the listing says 3 bedrooms, it is NOT 3 bedrooms. It is 2 bed rooms with a pull out couch. This was not expected and was disappointing.

About the host

Hosted by Nina Howard

Host profile image
I stay busy running the Guest Houses in Ann Arbor staying in all 4 Guesthouses every other month or so, or I am in my art studio painting abstract art or gardening in the summer in the Smokies. I call North Carolina mountains my home but travel back and forth to Ann Arbor, enjoying my time in one of the 4 Ann Arbor Guest Houses. What a life!

Why they chose this property

I lived in this property back in the 90's on the main floor. In the Spring of 2012 I rented my old apartment again downstairs and the upstairs came available 5 years later. I named it the Artist's Loft as I was looking for a place to hang many of my art pieces. I love this location and I love staying here in the central part of downtown and remembering the 'good 'ol days' when I would dart in and out of my apartment enjoying the fun filled life of living right in the middle of town.

What makes this property unique

Everything is within a 5 block walk, U of M, Main Street, Kerrytown! Okay, walking to the Stadium takes a few more blocks to get there. Having a parking space in town is a big plus if you think you need a car. Teeming life on the streets on the other side of your front door. This apartment is sunny with windows on all 4 sides of the apartment. It is cozy yet roomy enough (around 1000 SF) for up to 6 guests.
