Thank you for your review. While our rental is located in a very family oriented neighborhood and as stated by many previous guests before you, our neighborhood is one of the most charming, quiet and peaceful ones in Ypsilanti. I think it would be fair to highlight that this particular weekend there was a football game going on, and therefore and as it is expected there is more excitement in the streets.

Lovely hosts, great location

We really enjoyed our stay here, and felt fortunate to have a chance to meet our hosts who were both lovely to chat with. The house is old and charming, and the apartment is comfortable and familiar in a cozy way. We appreciated that it was just a few short blocks to downtown Ypsilanti, and just a few more blocks from Depot Town, so it was easy to take a stroll, grab dinner/ice cream, and admire the historic architecture.

Great location

We really enjoyed our stay at this well maintained VRBO. It was located in a very walkable historic neighborhood near the heart of Ypsilanti. Many interesting restaurants, coffee shops, etc. were nearby. The apartment itself was cheerful, clean and comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked with everything you'd need to prepare a meal. The hosts were congenial and available as needed. We highly recommend.

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!

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!

Host profile image
Hello Travelers,

I am Glory. I love traveling around the world and having the chance to meet new people, and cultures. We have a lovely 1897 historic house just 2 blocks from downtown Ypsi. Our home has an independent apartment on the second floor, that we rent for short & long stays. The apartment is lovely and very cozy. It has been carefully curated with pieces we love and enjoy and we really hope you will enjoy them too.

Safe travels!

Why they chose this property

Great location!!! The History District in Ypsi is filled with beautiful architecture. Homes mostly from the 1800s with styles ranging from Victorian (like ours), Queen Anne, and Italianate therefore taking a stroll down the neighborhood is great fun. The house is also very centrally located. It's10 mins to downtown Ann Arbor, 15 min to EMU, 15 min to all shopping Target, Krogers, Aldi, Trader Joe's, Home Depot, and Lowes. Only 2 blocks to Downtown Ypsilanti, this is a 5 min walk where you can find coffee shops, restaurants, book stores, ice cream parlors, vintage stores, and Depot Town. So yes a little bit for everyone ;)

What makes this property unique

We offer a real home feeling at our property. * The charm is in the details *Curated carefully with elements we love and enjoy and we hope you will enjoy them too.
