About Nina Howard

My life is ruled by my 4 1/2 pound dog, a Chinese Imperial named Ling-Ling. When I am not playing with her, I play at my other jobs; co-owner and founder of Bellanina Day Spa (409N 4th Ave - Ann Arbor www.bellanina.com) and teaching spa services trainings around the country for Bellanina Institute, managing these properties and painting modern art in my art studio down in the Smokies of North Carolina. I love my life!

Nina Howard purchased this apartment in 2010
Why Nina Howard chose Ann Arbor

When I sold my house in 2010, I needed a temporary space to 'park it' until I moved into my existing house. I rented this apartment and absolutely loved it. When I moved out, the landlord graciously allowed me to keep it intact as another Bellanina Vacation Rental.

What makes this apartment unique

1 to 2 miles from everything you need. On a bus line, ample parking, green grass, cappucino maker, laundry room, modern furniture and art, easy to walk your dog, spacious, clean, great kitchen to cook in, patio with barbeque grill, feels like home.

Met our needs perfectly

5 of 5
Submitted: November 29, 2012 Stayed: November 2012
Very clean, well equipped and comfortably furnished. The adjacent park is a great feature. Everything was as promised, and the owner was extremely responsive to our questions.

This is an area of Ann Arbor we weren't familiar with, and we were pleasantly surprised at the combination of a tranquil neighborhood with very quick access to downtown and the Umich central campus.

Highly recommended.
Owner's Response: I am so glad you enjoyed your stay and hope you come back to visit! Thank you for taking the time to comment.
