After a day of travelling, we arrived a bit early to check in. When we arrived, a room was almost ready. It's a short walk to shopping in the area. Cute room and the bed was comfortable. Will stay here again.

This is a great hotel to stay at arriving into or leaving out of Anchorage. Close to Ted Stevens Airport. Helpful staff and nice room. Good if you are traveling alone too. Good breakfast spot (Bema Cafe) right across the street to grab before leaving, with a patio outside hotel to relax at. Only issue can be a little noise coming from people entering/exiting if staying on second floor. Would recommend this place for a nice place to stay night before starting/ending trip.

My teenage son and I stayed at this property twice on our recent trip to Alaska. I had some travel issues that had nothing to do with the Inn and the owner was so kind and patient. The rooms are unique and very clean. The room with a double bed and a twin bed is perfect for 2-3 people. We loved this place and would stay there again.

Great place. to stay if you're used to occasionally having community bathroom. Some of the units have individual bathrooms, but you have to make sure you book it that way. Great place to stay in Anchorage, Alaska, Especially since you're only really there to sleep because of all the activities. Centrally located easy access to everything in town. Friendly staff self-use community kitchen.

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Pros: The room seemed to be really clean, and the bed and pillows were comfortable and smelled fresh Working fridge. Less than 10 minutes to the airport. Con’s: Sketchy neighborhood, especially late at night. Older, run down, not well maintained. Some road noise if you’re in a downstairs room facing outside. **In case you don’t realize it when booking, if you choose a room with one bed, it’s upstairs (no elevator) and hostel-style (tiny room, shared bathroom and shower down the hallway). If you choose two beds it will be down on the main level, with your own bathroom, and an outside-facing door.**

Very helpful and kind staff and super unique place. The room was toasty warm as well. Unfortunately our room was at the front of the building and there was no noise dampening at all. The road noise and kids partying in the parking lot across the street made it very difficult to sleep. The blackout curtains in the room leaked light from all around them, too.

I love the area this hotel is in and it's surprisingly nice compared to what I was expecting with the low nightly rate. The shower has great water pressure and gets good and hot; I love that in a hotel. Parking is great and you can walk to multiple shopping and dining establishments.
