Everything was as advertised. We enjoyed this quiet centrally located property. The property owner communicated with us and checked back to make sure everything was good for us. I highly recommend this property.

This home is comfortable and affordable. The owner responded very quickly to a couple of questions/concerns.
It was a great location for us visiting with family and doing a little sight-seeing. The whole place was clean overall, but the main bathroom could use a full deep cleaning.

We greatly enjoyed our stay at this comfortable condo. Great location for shopping and getting to our appointments.
The kitchen was wonderful for cooking family meals (lots of kitchen utensils, appliances, etc) and the furniture and beds were comfortable. It was an easy place to relax and we would definitely stay here again.
Also, very easy communication with owner when we unexpectedly needed to extend our stay. Thank you for your hospitality!

My only problem with this place was that I am older and have back problems and the beds were not supportive, so I had trouble sleeping here but otherwise place was well equipped for travelers and was peaceful

This unit is nice. They have everything. The location was a bit tough to find, but we made our way. The parking is close to the front door, but not designated. We didn't have any problems with parking. Easy check in and out.

Cozy apartment perfect for 2 couples. Bathrooms updated, newer kitchen appliances and kitchen well stocked including condiments and comfy furniture. Washer/ dryer with detergent were a welcome addition for our post cruise stay! We'd recommend for an affordable comfy stay while in Anchorage.
Finding the unit was tricky 1st time and the scent of cleaning product over strong upon arrival but we were able to air it out. Overall a pleasant stay.

This was a great choice for our busy weekend. Nice hub for our chosen activities. Owner gave great directions and instructions. Great amenities. Quiet and cosy. Easy distance from anything you want do in the area.
The only problem we had was that the Smart TV in the downstairs needs some kind of update. Gives a constant interupting message that it is short of storage and that some apps should be deleted.

The place was dated but very clean. The beds and furniture was comfortable. There was no desk for working and the lighting above the kitchen table was poor. I should have inquired about this. My main complaint is the access to the door. We had to drive through a giant puddle to a very narrow alley. It was weird to say the least.
