We came for a football game at Michigan. We found the inn to be a perfect location, half way between downtown and the stadium. (Although it was a slightly longer walk to the stadium). The innkeepers were very helpful with recommendations and directions around town. You may want to make a dinner reservation for the weekends, things fill up fast.... more

We were very pleased with the First Street Garden Inn. It is a beautiful turn-of-the century home convenient (on foot) to downtown Ann Arbor as well as the Univesity district. The house is filled with beautiful art and surrounded by gorgeous gardens. The innkeeper is warm, friendly, helpful, and not at all intrusive. Her breakfasts were delicious, if a bit... more

I stayed at the First Street Garden Inn for a business trip. The First Garden Inn located in an Ann Arbor neighborhood less than half a mile from the University of Michigan, restaurants and shops.

Kathy (the owner) is a great... more

First night--a tray of champagne was brought to my room. Every morning a different place-setting of beautiful china at the dining table with my coffee. The cozy home is decorated in turn of the century furnishings--arts and crafts, art nouveau, original Japanese engravings and oil paintings and Fresh flowers throughout the house. Someone there is an artist at heart. more

We're just about to book another stay at the First Street Garden Inn, and want to share our fabulous experience with other travelers to Ann Arbor. We have stayed at the First Street Garden Inn 3 times over the last 4 years. Each time our visit was better than the last time. The Inn is within walking distance to the... more

Mere words cannot say what a great place this is. It was the perfect match for what we needed. I contacted Kathy about 9 months ago to reserve the rooms. My husband and I and another 2 guys had the whole house to ourselves. It was wonderful. We were there for a Wisconsin Badger game. We walked everywhere. It was... more

We came to Ann Arbor for my brother's wedding knowing we'd need a peaceful place to relax during our free time. My mother googled 'Ann Arbor Bed & Breakfast' and thought the First Street Garden Inn sounded nice; she was right. The breakfasts were of very high quality - I'm not an early riser when on vacation, but for this... more
