As a research student I've spent a lot of time traveling around the United States by myself which can be very lonely. Motel's are never homely, so I was delighted to find Kathy and Mike's B&B which completely exceeded my expectations. Throughout my prolonged stay I was made to feel at home. Mike and Kathy are extremely affable, and generous... more

We stayed at the First Street Garden Inn in April, 2008. Kathy and Mike, the owners, have lived in Ann Arbor for 15-plus years and could tell us almost anything that we wanted to know about their town. We found that they were always willing to help. In fact, they drove us to the University area and offered to pick... more

A lovely facility and the hosts were so helpful. They both went above and beyond to make my stay comfortable and informative. The breakfasts were delicious, the beds cozy, and the atmosphere restful! more

Small and personal, the innkeepers are super hosts. They were so helpful with hints and ideas for my daughter and I as we used the inn as our base while we looked for an apartment for her for when she will move to Ann Arbor for graduate studies at UM. Breakfast was yummy - everytime! The rooms were charming and... more

A perfect home away from home in a great Ann Arbor location. The house is furnished with interesting antiques - but is not fussy or overly formal in any way - a very homey decor. Fresh flowers, chocolates, and a tray with sherry and cookies were added treats. Lovely, comfortable rooms (fluffy towels, warm comforter on the bed) great breakfasts... more

We spent out 8th yr anniversary @ The First Street Garden Inn. The Art Deco room was wonderful & Mike & Kathy are delightful innkeepers. We loved the shower, the breakfast was delightful & we were right in the center of downtown Ann Arbor. You have to check out Kliners old fashion ice cream shop & Habana's cuban restaurant. This... more

We have been staying at this Ann Arbor B&B since the fall of 2003, when our son was a freshman at UM, and have been coming back ever since, even after he graduated. Conveniently located within walking distance of downtown and the main campus, this B&B on a quiet street is the perfect place to curl up with a good... more

I really enjoyed my stay at the First Street Garden Inn. This bed and breakfast is located in a quiet neighborhood that is still just two blocks from Main St., Ann Arbor. The rooms are comfortable and clean, the breakfasts are wonderful (especially, the creme brulee bread pudding!), and the rates are very reasonable. But the best part of staying... more

Found this B & B on "trip advisor". Always a risk to book something only seen on line. This was perfect. The room was lovely and comfortable, the hosts were extremely accomodating, helpful. The breakfasts were very good. Couldn't have been better and we are pretty fussy. Would recommend for anyone although probably not set up for children (but imagine... more
