GREAT LOCATION!

Overall very calm and nice stay at this Vrbo. A cozy listing in a very very convenient location. If you like pizza, or just New York food, you are so so so in luck. The NYPD pizza joint right below is such an amazing spot it’s almost worth staying at this cozy spot just for the convenience of simply walking downstairs for a slice, some knots, and a slice of red velvet cake.

We had a wonderful stay. Communication with the property manager was great. We enjoyed the location and the eclectic style of the apartment. The parking garage close was reasonable as well. It is $1.50/hour so $36 a day.

Cute, well-appointed spot close to everything in downtown A2

The space is very cozy and clean, with an individual touch (more and more rare these days). Checkin was easy, and the apartment is easy walking distance to all downtown attractions, especially dining & shopping. I was a little disappointed that a neighboring tenant played techno fairly loud from 6am-checkout, so sleeping wasn’t the best.

This property is located in the Heart of Ann Arbor and easily walkable to anywhere in Ann Arbor. The bed is super comfortable, not to soft, not to hard. The place is extremely clean and has a wonderful boho vibe. I hope to be able to stay here again!

So cute & cozy!

My friend & I stayed last night; it was a blast from the past, admiring the antique/vintage furniture & people-watching out the little breakfast nook over a cup of coffee. As appropriately titled, it is whimsical & colorful as much as it is cozy!

Excellent weekend getaway

Had a wonderful time here for a quick weekend getaway! Super clean, very comfy and cozy, and a large bathroom & kitchenette. It got a bit loud at night since it’s right near the diag/college life, but it was nothing a little white noise didn’t easily solve. Only suggestion would be to possibly add a tv of some sort? That was the only thing we really felt was missing, but we would absolutely still stay here again!

Chill Digs in Ann Arbor

Very satisfying stay in Ann Arbor! Communications with host were informative from the get go. The space was aesthetically pleasing, cozy and comfortable. The location is in the heart of Ann Arbor. I was visiting my student, so perfect for shopping and dining! I enjoy an upbeat location, so I didn’t mind the vibrant atmosphere at night. The host provides a white noise machine and ear plugs if you need quiet. I would definitely stay her again!

I was in an Ann Arbor for a conference at UMich and this apartment worked out wonderfully. The location is great and I very much appreciated the record player with a Dean Martin LP. I didn't get to use the kitchen due but I imagine it coming in very handy on a longer stay.

Beautiful and well decorated studio with kitchenette

This little place packs everything you need for your stay into a studio apartment. The kitchenette was perfect for heating up leftovers or having an easy breakfast. The Murphy bed is very tall but so comfortable. The linens are so soft! The bathroom was really clean and had a lot of nice natural light during the day. This is the best decorated rental I’ve ever stayed in. So cozy and welcoming. The hosts were very communicative and allowed me to bring my toddler last minute. Can’t say enough good things about this rental!

Lovely little apartment

My daughter and myself went to check out University of Michigan. Wonderful location! Main door to enter was kinda hard to get unlocked and really heavy. Apartment was adorably decorated. Bathroom was clean, however, it would benefit from a good dusting. Owners are accurate about the noice outside. Could have been great to have those ear plugs they said were there but the sound machine did an okay job. Would definitely stay again.

I'll start with the positives....Great location and close to campus and restaurants. The place was actually larger than we had expected. The downside to the location is that it is VERY noisy. I mean, you won't sleep much. I realize this isn't entirely the fault of the owner, but a fan or noise machine may not be a bad idea since you'll have drunk college students outside every night. For the price, I'll probably stay further out at a hotel next time and spend the saved money on ubers. Just my 2 cents.....nothing against the unit, but just not for me personally.

Very beautiful stay!

We enjoyed our stay, we went into this knowing about street noise and planned on drinking late anyway. The hop cat had great food and beer, highly recommend. The parking garage was 18 for the one night stay. And close enough to walk to the truck to smoke. Oh yea the pizza downstairs is amazing. You will eat it cause you smell it in the hallway and you won’t be able to skip out lol.
