These two hotels are next to each other and are on The Ride's bus line #30, stop number 3. The #30 runs to and from the Blake Transit Center 2 times per hour. The Blake Transit Center is located directly across 5th Ave. from the library and shows as stop number 1 on the schedule. The distance between these hotels and the library is 2.5 miles.
Detroit Metro Airport (DTW) is 25 miles from downtown Ann Arbor. The Graduate does not offer shuttle service from or to DTW.
Ann Arbor Airport Shuttle is a private shuttle service.
The Airride is Ann Arbor's public transit airport shuttle that offers service to and from the downtown Blake Transit Center and DTW. The Blake Transit Center is located directly across the street from the library, and 5 blocks from The Graduate Hotel (you might consider catching the Airride to the Blake Transit Center and then taking an Uber or taxi to the Graduate from there).
If on Thursday, you will be going directly to the airport from the library, this is an excellent option! Just bring your luggage with you when you come to the library that morning.
Uber and private taxi services are also available at rates ranging from $40-$60 each way. Enter the search “DTW to Ann Arbor transportation” for more options.
