This hotel is older, and as such has its pluses and minuses. Pluses: character, nearly soundproof between rooms, good location for getting into Ann Arbor on public transit, with ready access to restaurants and a nearby Trader Joe's. Minuses: small, a few up-keep issues. However, the owners seem to make an effort to keep the rooms in good repair, and... More

I had read the other reviews before making a reservation to stay here and I also looked at a number of other hotels in the area. I chose the Lamp Post Inn because I wanted to keep the cost of our trip as low as possible. I felt that it would provide the absolute basics required when you need somewhere... More

This is a family run establishment and after reading the reviews I didn't have very high expectations but expected everything to be adequate. The room was a bit dated and the furniture a bit old but everything was perfectly clean and acceptable unlike other budget places I have staid in. The bed was a bit creaky and the fridge made...

Husband booked us at this place for the Michigan State vs. Univ of Michigan football game. When I entered the room I immediately started gagging uncontrollably - I nearly threw-up from the stench and the thought that I would spend a second of my life there. The filth and disrepair are appalling. There were open holes to the outside where... More

This hotel is in a great location to attend football games. The rooms are roomy, comfortable and clean. It is an older hotel so there is some wear. The staff is friendly and accomodating. We will stay here when we go back for another game!

... than to stay in AA, Michigan at the Lamp Post Inn. My family has stayed at the LPI for 6 years.. not just a day or two, but weeks at a time. We always choose LPI because of its great value, helpful 'n friendly staff, location, and most importantly ... supporting an AA small business. My suggestion to those... More

This is the most dreadful experience I have had with a hotel/motel. It requires an impressive degree of chutzpa to charge for a room in the condition offered to me. It was dingy, threadbare, poorly lighted and "cooled" by an a/c unit that sounded like a Mac truck. The bath tub was 50% enameled, the rest had flaked off; the... More

I have stayed at this place a few different time, mainly because it is cheap and not in bad area. If you want cheap and safe this is the place, but clean-most of the time, updated-not at all, friendly staff-yes. I have been to Iraq, shot at and slept in some of the worst imaginable condition, so compared to that,... More

Since I have in-laws in town, I don't believe that I've paid to stay in A2 since my undergraduate apartment lease expired in 1984. However, during this trip circumstances forced us to choose other accommodations, three days one weekend, and one day the following weekend. We chose the Lamp Post because a.) it's within a mile of family, and b.)... More
