I found this place through the Ross housing guide, and I love living here. It's quiet, on the west side near the stadium, and a 15 minute walk to school. Management is responsive to maintenance, and they are responsible with packages. Additionally, if you renew your lease, they do 1/2 rent for the summer months so you don't have to find a subletter.

My partner and I love living at Nob Hill for the inexpensive rent (we wanted a two bedroom so she can work remotely from home), excellent location, and very responsive management/maintenance team. Some of the units are "updated" (hardwood floors and slightly less dated kitchens), but we're in a unit with a very basic (though certainly serviceable) kitchen and carpet throughout. There is nothing fancy or luxury about our apartment, and I will admit that I miss having a garbage disposal and dishwasher, but we have been very happy with our choice given our budget and location preferences. It's very close to many other Ross students (very short walk to 618 South Main, the Yard, and other small apartment buildings like ours), a 7-Eleven for basic needs, the Bus, and the Stadium, and it's only a 15-minute walk to Ross. Parking is included but we pay for other utilities (typically around $30/month for water, $60/month for gas & electric, and $40/month for internet). The management and maintenance teams are very quick and responsive, which is one my favorite parts (I know if something goes wrong, and it does occasionally because it's an old building, it will be handled quickly and easily).

I really liked the studio apartment at Nob Hill. Tiny, but all I needed as a single person who spent most time at school. However, the landlords were unhelpful, unfriendly, uncommunicative, and obfuscated a lot. There were many repair issues they didn't notify me of, prices changed, the charge for laundry in the building went up, lots of nickle-and-dime-ing that felt very manipulative. I'm much happier at my new apartment in Ann Arbor. With how much Nob Hill rent went up, I'd recommend looking elsewhere, although for a studio in a non-smoking community, this may still be one of the least expensive.

Apartments are older, but well maintained
Safe and quiet
Close enough (less than 20 minute walk) to downtown and to Ross
Very spacious for one person
No washer/dryer in unit or dishwasher (coin operated w/d in basement)
Wonderful management and maintenance team -- very friendly and responsive

Very Quiet
. Parking is essentially never an issue
. Safe
. Little far from Ross (15-20 mins walking)
. Good size for the price. Includes storage unit in basement
. Outstanding and reasonable property management
. Sometimes can hear upstairs neighbors if they stomp around.

My apartment is pretty nice. Pretty big, full size kitchen, storage in the basement, and parking is included. It's a little bit further away, about a 15-20 min walk depending on weather. However, it's quiet as the area is either grad students or young professionals. Ann Arbor is pretty walkable, but sometimes it's a chore to walk to the bars and restaurants. It's not terrible, but there are definitely apartments closer to things.

Cons: no dishwasher, older apartment without a lot of charm

Pros: Quiet, nice to get away from the crowd and have a quiet place to retreat to, small but plenty of space for what I needed, VERY responsive management company

15 minutes to Ross, near the Big House and Crisler Center. Walking distance to downtown. Chose to live here all 3 years and it's worked out really well. Would definitely live here again. I hear the 1 bedrooms are tiny so I'm glad we got a 2 bedroom. Plenty of classmates pay 50%+ more than I do for nicer amenities so I just go hang out with them when I feel like it! :)

Nob Hill apartments are somewhat small, don't have a lot of storage space, ours doesn't have a dishwasher, and there is coin operated laundry in the building. There aren't a lot of frills but the price is great for a small 2BR and we love being located within walking distance of UM and downtown. Grocery stores are within a very short drive and we have never had issues with safety. Parking is free and being near the stadium is great on game days. Management responds to maintenance requests quickly and easy to get in contact with. If you're on a budget and willing to skip on some of the finer amenities, this is an excellent place to live.
