Clean and comfortable apartment in Ypsi

We were in town visiting family, but wanted our own space. This unit was very clean and had all the basic essentials for a comfortable stay. We did not cook, but the kitchen was stocked with cookware and utensils. Motion detection outside lights for returning after dark. Off-street parking provided, but also plenty of street parking as well. Responsive host with excellent communication. Please note there are long outside stairs to gain access to the unit, which was fine with us, but would not be easy for someone with mobility issues. Otherwise clean and safe and we enjoyed our stay!

Welcome home to Ypsilanti

My sister and I were born in Ypsilanti. We now live in the SF Bay Area but came home to Ypsi for a family gathering. My sister hasn't been to Ypsi in 50 years. We were charmed by this well-maintained 19th century home. The suite we stayed in had two comfortable bedrooms, a bathroom, sitting room and well-equipped kitchen. Having these lovely rooms to come home to made it much easier to explore Ann Arbor, Ypsi and Detroit. Thank you!

Quiet and Convenient

We have stayed here multiple times. Part of this is because there are two bedrooms so my snoring doesn't bother my wife. Having a kitchen is also a great perk. We are 74 years old, and can manage the stairs up to the second floor. We stay here when we visit my 98 year old mother. Hope we can continue to do so!

The property was well maintained and clean. The owner was welcoming and the check in/out process was easy. The neighborhood was quite and we walked to the local pub The Tap Room. I highly recommend you stop in for a drink. The property is about 10 minutes from the football stadium.

Very happy with our stay!

Glory was a great host. She responded promptly to all communications. The rental was clean, comfortable, and just as advertised. I felt very safe and comfortable for the four days we stayed. I’d go back in a heartbeat next time I’m in Ypsi! Great location close to downtown, and within walking distance to depot town (although driving is also super easy).

Decent

Glory was a good host. I made this booking because I thought the price was good compared to what else was available at the time. I wish the post directly mentioned that you are in a partitioned section of the same house as the owner. Otherwise, the post is as listed. Glory did provide a lot of amenities and appliances for us to use during the times we were there. She was also expeditious in handling an issue came up with the bathroom toilet. Will admit that the Ypsilanti neighborhood is a little shady - if you google search it you can see that there have been shooting deaths as recent as 2022. Nevertheless, no harm came to my party during our stay. All these things considered, this spot is decent, and Glory works very hard to be a good host. However, I think I would just pay full price for a hotel if I ever do come back.

Perfect home away from home!

There are too many good things to say about this apartment, to mention them all, but here are a few: Location – convenient to the interstate, and a quick walk into town… about 10 minutes further puts you in Depot town, which is a very cool place. Found out that every Thursday night in the summer, they have a classic car show, right there on the street – – a DJ is there playing 50s music. Lots of great bars restaurants; friendly and laid-back place. Glory, our host, is very friendly, without being intrusive, and will help you sort out any issues you might have.… The apartment is pretty awesome! Comfortable bed; Well equipped and easy to use kitchen; (and everything else that is listed)… My favorite, though, is a little table in the backyard which is a great place to have your coffee in the morning, or sit for a while, to read. I was taking a pretty intense four day class, in Ann Arbor, and it was an easy drive back-and-forth. I got there a few days early, so by the time I was into that schedule, the apartment really felt like my home.… Just a note, that it is not going to be for somebody with mobility issues, since there is a significant stairway, up to the apartment--- but if you are reasonably able bodied, it's fine! I will definitely be back, when I have more time to explore the area.
