Cute little apartment with all we needed. Perfect walking location and close to all that beautiful Ann Arbor has to offer. Beds were comfortable and hosts responsive and communicated great and clear details. Tiny little bit musty smelling and could be winter weather walking in on carpet s but despite, would recommend and return.Smells a ti
This is the best VRBO we have ever stayed at! It was clean and nicely decorated, without being overdone. The space and amenities were obviously well thought out. We had everything we needed for a comfortable, relaxing stay.
The location is great for walking to A2's many interesting restaurants and museums. And the host, Nina, was friendly and helpful, without being intrusive. Overall, a solid 10 out of 10!
This was a fantastic house in downtown Ann Arbor. Walkable to Main Street and anywhere on Michigan's campus. Nina was very helpful with local information and parking advice for additional vehicles.
Fantastic apartment, right in the heart of town. Host was super responsive. Would absolutely stay here again!

This property has an ideal location for those visiting the University. Close to campus as well as the cute downtown area with great restaurants. The unit is spacious, very clean and included basic amenities.
This was a wonderful stay, we visited the University of Michigan for a visit and dance team clinic. The location was perfect close to everything, shops, restaurants, and bars. The property was clean and comfortable and Dina the host was responsive and helpful. Coming back in my next stay at Ann Arbor
Stay was fantastic! We loved the location and spaciousness of the apartment. Super easy to walk to UM, sporting facilities, restaurants and shops! We parked our large SUV in the garage and left it there for the duration. I highly recommend this property! We hope to stay here again on another visit. Nina was very good with communicating and was a great host.
Loved this 2 bedroom, 1 bath apartment with a fully appointed kitchen and spacious living room. Nina and Kim have thought of everything! It is a perfect location, easy walking to campus, all of the great restaurants near State/Division area & to Kerrytown. The beds are comfy and bathroom has everything you need. One night we stayed In and made dinner using the grill out back, watched football & enjoyed the living area. A bonus is Nina’s beautiful artwork everywhere. Will definitely be back!
This property was delightful. Clean, attractive, and a perfect location for our family to explore Ann Arbor while on a college visit. If our son decides to attend college here, we will stay here again!
Great apartment right downtown and nice to have a garage spot for the car. A great place to stay to visit our daughter as it’s close to campus and all the downtown restaurants! Very comfortable.

About the host
Hosted by Nina Howard
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.
