A new airport shuttle service begins this week. Please go to the website http://www.myairride.com for all information regarding single and round trip costs, drop off locations, etc. We are extremely fortunate that this new shuttle service will work extremely well for our customers and we recommend the shuttle for those that wish to avail themselves of the public transit option. Please note that since the main bus route in Ann Arbor (#4) goes directly past the Lamp Post Inn you will find that you can easily move around Ann Arbor from our ideal location. Route #4 will link at two separate locations to the new airport shuttle service.
There will be twelve shuttles per day between Ann Arbor and the airport. All twelve of these will go directly to the Blake Transportation Center but four will also stop at the University of Michigan Central Transportation Center.
Anyone wishing to use the shuttle should go directly to the website http://www.myairride.com to make reservations and to verify schedules.
People using the shuttle to get to the Lamp Post Inn should take the shuttle from the airport to:
The same information applies to people leaving for the airport (just reverse the process).
Please note that the Ann Arbor Public Transportation website theride.org has a planning tool on their website. Unfortunately, when typing in our address of 2424 E. Stadium you will need to use the zip code 48108 (instead of 48103 or our actual zip 48104). There seems to be some confusion on the zip code map and we would prefer that you arrive at our hotel instead of the party store on the other side of town.
My family and I are proud to be the Innkeepers for the Lamp Post Inn, a small family owned hotel in Ann Arbor, Michigan. The Lamp Post Inn is located very near the University of Michigan campus and is in an ideal location for those visiting the University or hospitals. We are also less than two miles rom the University of Michigan athletic fields, The Ark, Hill Auditorium, the Michigan Theater and downtown Ann Arbor.
Our dream when we purchased the hotel was not to have the most exquisite hotel in town, but rather to own a hotel that was affordable but met the basics needs of visitors to Ann Arbor. We wanted to provide a convenient, friendly, clean accommodation at a fair price. We realized an older hotel could not hope to compete against the four star amenities of our pricey, and corporate franchised competition but we also believed that most people did not need the glitz, as long as they received value for their dollar.
When you visit Ann Arbor we invite you to stay with us and enjoy our hotel. We are proud to be a part of Ann Arbor, a world leader in academics, athletics and cultural events.
