The neighborhood is about two blocks away from a sketchy main road. Lots of homeless people meandering about. The house felt safe enough despite the location. All appliances worked well, good water pressure, good water temperature. Rooms were fine. Art in the house is very classy.

Stay in Anchorage

The property felt fairly clean but as previous reviews have stated had an odor which I guess is understandable in an older house in a rainy climate. The kitchen was nice but had odd items in the refrigerator and cabinet. Much of which was expired food. It felt like you were spending some time in a friend's place, not a property that is meant for renters only. The description isn't clear that you have to walk up a full flight of stairs to get into the property. Luckily we had strong, young family members with us to help us get the heavy luggage up the stairs. The description states there are three parking spaces, but we had one as a truck was parked in the driveway. Not a big deal since there is street access to parking.

Super clean. Great central location. Would have been nice to have another bed in the 3rd room instead of a single bed, because the sofa bed was a little uncomfortable (there was 7 of us). Otherwise it was an enjoyable stay!

We stayed at the property for 2 weeks and had a nice stay! Pros:-cost-location in relation to the highway and Anchorage-well stocked with toilet paper, basic toiletries, kitchen items and basic spices-comfortable master bed-big supply of extra sheets and towels-cleaning supplies like broom and vacuum weren’t locked up, like some vacation rentals do. It was nice to be able to tidy up throughout our stay. -laundry room with laundry detergent available-updated bathrooms-Host was pleasant and easy to contact-very clean in all the places that mattered- kitchen/beds/bathroomsCons:-Lingering odor of pets/smoking?, probably from previous tenants. It did dissipate throughout our stay as we opened windows. -not the best neighborhood-no blackout curtains in the bedrooms. Coming from the east coast, this was rough. It would be 3am “our” time and it would still look like daylight in the bedrooms.If you’re like us and want an affordable place to lay your head at night, close to amenities while you get out and explore, it’s perfect. We would stay here again. The key is to know your own personality- this rental isn’t for people who want a luxury apartment to hang out in, but perfect to get out and experience AK or spend time with a loved one stationed at JBER.

I received no information regarding check so had to contact the host. The accommodation was in need of many repairs and upgrades. The bath sink drain, the torn leather couch, etc. some of the pans in the cabinets were dirty, greasy with food on them. It was a roof over our head with adequate amenities.

Easier on the wallet

Our stay at this residence was comfortable. The house had most needed items one tends to forget while traveling. The location was centered for our daily excursions. Uber and Uber eats had no problem finding the address. The daily rate was lower than most but the accommodations were nice, not subpar. Communication with the owner was quick and complete.

Cozy Anchorage Home

The rental had everything we needed for us and our 2 adult sons for our trip. They even provided a few necessities in case we forgot some things. The house is a bit older but the bathrooms have been updated and it was plenty warm for those of us from the lower 48! It was close to the base we were visiting and other great activities. We would definitely stay again!

One Start is Too Much

This place was dirty. The kitchen cupboards have old grease on them. The cooking pans were covered in old grease. The BBQ looked like it had never been cleaned. They're wasn't a comfortable place to sit in the whole house. One couch was split at the seams and you can feel the springs starting to poke through the fabric. The rails on the kitchen slider were filthy. This place was disgusting.

About the host

Hosted by Larry Carmichael

Host profile image
I have been a life long Alaskan, I have been blessed to travel extensively in Alaska and can share ideas for visitors to experience the most, Be it small to tall adventures, just ask.

Why they chose this property

The Neighborhood has changed a lot in 50 years.. With Glenn Highway a block away and downtown only 7 minutes away you can satisfy the most discriminating taste. Go North to the Army base/ Wasilla or Denali, this home is a great location to access whatever the desire.

What makes this property unique

My home is a senior lady with unique charm. She is not the Capt. Cook, Marriott or the Ritz. She is comfortable and affordable for the visitors wanting to experience easy access Alaska's great outdoors.
