The 12 ft ceilings and 8 foot tall windows allow for a light and airy feel.

Excellent location
We enjoyed our stay in the Tanner building. Old building but well kept. The location was awesome located by good bars and the main street with everything on it. Close to water and planetarium.

Overnight visit
The apartment was right in the downtown area, walking distance to many places to eat and things to do as well as the park, where we enjoyed a free concert.

Perfect
Perfect accommodation. Comfortable. Many small details like the olive oil on the stove, huge bath towels and throw blankets on couch and bed. Clean. Located in the best location in the middle of downtown activities. Great restaurants, bars and boutiques. Even a craft show outside our door. Will definitely stay here again.

Fun time in Bay City
Rented my apartment for two days. Really nice place... middle of downtown. Apartment was super nice and very clean. Except for some strange noises from above my unit, it was a restful fun stay.
