We had so much fun! Best breakfast we have ever been served and a lovely setting! The grounds are lovely, innkeepers are great. It's a special place, and if you are traveling with children or teens, they will appreciate all the nuances.

The Carriage House was the perfect spot for our Girls staycation. It provided privacy but we still received the amenities of the main house. We were pleasantly surprised as to the condition of the property since it is older property. It was updated but the integrity of the Carriage House was kept. The mini kitchen was a plus! It was really warm outside but the A/C was awesome in the Carriage House. Wi-fi was great as well. Again, with it being an older property we were pleasantly surprised with the water pressure in the shower. Long story short we enjoyed our stay and are already looking to book again.

First they jacked up prices to absurd levels for parents trying to attend their kid’s’ graduation weekend. I only agreed to pay that rate because their $600/night standard room was the only one left multiple towns around. Then they demanded full payment for 3 nights up front. Now they refuse to return ANY money despite cancellation of graduation and a national stay at home order. They are not even opening their doors to health care workers. That kind of money grabbing ownership is an embarrassment for Ann Arbor.

my daughter had her wedding Venue here and it was beautiful. The host was extremely helpful and accommodating. The breakfast choices were unique and also accommodating to the sensitive palette! I would recommend this B and B to my friends and family.

What a pleasure to stay at the Stone Chalet Bed and Breakfast Inn! Our room was comfortable and cozy, with attention to what travelers need: plenty of towels, an incredibly comfortable bed (Temperdic), and top notch toiletries. We loved the cooked to order, delicious breakfasts: served in the spacious dining room. We would happily stay again on future visits to Ann Arbor!

I was visiting University of Michigan and I stayed three nights here. It was excellent! I stayed in the Garden/Wizard room, and it was very comfortable and clean. If you are a Harry Potter fan, you will love all of the wizarding-world details found throughout the room. I'm actually not a huge Harry Potter fan myself, but I still appreciated the fun details and I enjoyed being in this room! The room also had a cozy fireplace which was great. The location of this B&B is perfect if you are visiting UMich, as it is doable to walk to central campus, and there is a public bus route that stops very close by and goes up into the central campus area. I had to go to north campus as well, and I had no problems getting there with the bus system. Everyone here was very friendly as well, and I had some of the best pancakes I've ever had for breakfast!

This place is a gem, probably the most impressive building on a road of very impressive buildings. Built in early 20th century and remodelled within the last decade, each roomm is unique. Property itself is worth seeing and seems ideally suited for groups, weddings, but also romantic getaways. The place also includes custom-made breakfast, with a very large number of choices. Overall, a VERY good value for the price, and a more unique experience compared to anon-feeling overpriced hotels or some other BnBs in this marvellous town.

First time staying at a B&B and enjoyed every moment of it. The room we stayed in was the Grand. It has a nice rustic look too it and a very high and comfortable bed. The breakfast menu was different for the 2 days we stayed, but both were excellent options and was beyond good. Very relaxing environment, great/very nice staff, very clean, and not a lot of people like a huge hotel chain. The location is perfect and not in a heavy traffic area. Its close to alot of shopping and restaurants. With that being said, please DO NOT eat breakfast at a restaurant because you will regret missing out on the breakfast provided at the B&B. Just a spa like feel to the place and would definitely go back.

We stayed in the Grand Room, with a twin bed and a (very tall) double. A perfect location for visiting the area. We walked to campus, drove only 10-15 mins to the Botanical Garden, and were easily able to find our way to I-94, 23, 14, etc. The breakfasts were very filling and delicious. Easy to park on the street and very quiet at night. Also a lovely place to go for a walk. Easy to check in and leave. Access to a microwave and small fridge/freezer in the hallway between the parsonage and main house.
