About this property

Thompson 212 · Thompson Block Loft - Modern and Historic

This light filled loft has all the luxury feel of a Downtown Chicago loft with 10 foot ceilings, large windows and exposed brick! You will enjoy cooking in the brand new kitchen and cleanup is easy with a full sized dishwasher! Just steps from Hyperion Coffee, Sidetrack, Aubree’s pizza and so many other great spots! This loft is a brand new space set in a historic building that was originally a hotel in 1839, then barracks used for the civil war in 1862. Amazing history!

Great Location, Apartment Well Equipped

We really enjoyed this unit. Upon arrival our assigned parking spot was taken, this was frustrating but was resolved within 60 minutes. The building is great, old and rustic with a dedicated parking lot and restaurants/shops all within 1-2 blocks (coffee shops, pizza, grilles, market).It's a very well equipped unit, host had all the supplies and enough to last us the entire two weeks (which is rare). This included laundry detergent, bath tissue, paper towels, coffee, spices, etc.The building was accessible with an e-keypad and the building has an elevator which made suitcase and grocery hauls super easy. The door to the unit is also a e-keypad so no keys, a plus!TIP: The thermostat and control panel are located in the great room. The great room has 3 windows and in the winter, it's much colder than in the bedrooms. So while the heat is on, it's heating to the temperature of the great room and the 2 bedrooms are without windows (just skylights). Therefore, it would get 5 degrees hotter in our bedrooms than the temp in the great room. Changing the thermostat every morning and every evening was part of the daily routine, but it did not damper the stay. We'd stay again.

Ypsi stay

Apartment is nice! But it’s not smoke free, which was a real problem for our family. We tried everything to air out the apartment. Nothing worked. In fact, the towels were wreaking of cigarette smoke so we had to wash them all and store them in the bedroom to avoid further smoke smell on them. If the apartment is listed as smoke free, then it should be.

Stay was great!

Upon arriving at the property, the check-in process was straightforward, thanks to the clear instructions provided. The elevator was easy for our friends to locate. I did wish for a small fan, as my husband tends to get warm. Additionally, having some extra foldable chairs in the closet would have been perfect for when our four friends stopped by to exchange gifts. The coffee and creamers were a delightful touch, and the coffee itself was excellent. The bed was very comfortable, and I found the kitchen mostly well-equipped for our needs. Overall, it was a great experience, and I highly recommend this place!

Nice easy stay

Just there for an overnight while visiting family. Property was clean and as pictured! Cozy loft that felt comfortable and easy! I’d definitely be a repeat customer if I’m in town again! The only things I can think of that would make it better would be upgrading the towels & shower head in the bathroom! But not a deal breaker! Still had a great stay!

Return to Ypsilanti

Visited in October with my sisters and niece, we were back in Michigan for our Mom's memorial service. One sister hasn't been back to Ypsi (our hometown) in 50 years and was charmed by Depot Town. We were all charmed by the rooms we stayed in, very comfortable bedrooms, a well-equipped kitchen, and a good vibe. Thanks so much!

Quick Visit

Had a one day training to conduct, so I needed a convenient and comfortable place to stay for one night. This had so much more of a "home" feeling than a hotel room.

Modern space in historic area.

The apartment location was perfect for us - we had to pick up family at Detroit airport and attend events in both Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti. Restaurants within 2-3 minute walk and nice area to walk and look at historic homes. Apartment was clean, spacious and furnished with all we needed, bed was comfortable, shower was hot with good water pressure. We can confidently recommend!

Love the Loft

The loft was a perfect place to stay during our recent visit to Michigan. It was modern, clean, and contained everything we needed for meal prep and leisure. The hosts were prompt with communication. The beds were VERY comfortable. It was also conveniently located to restaurants and interstates. I would highly recommend this property and will stay here again when future travel brings me to Michigan.

High school reunion

Ypsilanti is my hometown. I returned this time for a 50yr + reunion for classes ‘67-‘69. Three of my girlfriends traveled back for the get-together. We loved the LOFT. The keypad, not so much. Haha. I actually got the photo online of manual for ‘lock/unlock’ instructions. (We are all over 74 yrs old) haha. Tech-not so up to date on. The location is fantastic. Thanks for a great -cozy Loft.

Great stay!

The place was gorgeous; pictures don’t do it justice! I was very impressed with the cleanliness, amenities, and thoughtful attention detail throughout. And oh.my.god…that was the most comfortable bed I’ve ever slept on. Great location, very convenient to U of M, and we loved the restaurant on the ground floor. My only disappointment was that we couldn’t stay longer.
