Wonderful

This unit is very convenient but UP hill from the train station. We decided to Uber up the hill due to having baggage. This unit is part of a multi-unit building that is in close proximity to a shelter, but we had ZERO problems and the eclectic neighborhood was walkable to many restaurants! Cute patio and great grassy area for pets! Would reccommend if you are not bougey! :-)
It was great for the price and for a place to sleep. It was a little hard to find and there were some homeless people around. but all in all, a good place to stay. I would for sure return.
It was an exceptionally clean and well maintained apartment in downtown Anchorage. The owner/ manager Jeff is really nice and cooperative. I am a solo female traveler and felt quite safe. A full kitchen and separate bedroom for the price of a hotel room was a really good deal. I was in apt 5 and the view was fantastic. Rooms are secured by a code and they have paid laundry too. They also have other apartments with more bedrooms, so it’s good for families.
The only few considerations are: 1. Lots of stairs to reach the apartment. 2. Homeless people on the street as soon you get out - they didn’t cause me any problems, but I was a little unnerved. 3. All major stores like Walmart, Walgreens, Carrs, etc are in mid-town, so you need to spend on Uber.
Both 2 & 3 are not an issue if you have a car, I didn’t.
The apartment was located in a dicey area of Anchorage downtown. The security measures were fantastic, but when you open your door with a homeless person camped 50 feet from the door, it is uncomfortable to say the least. Very clean but older apartment. Manager was very kind allowing us early check-in. However, I would not have stayed without my husband to help me feel safe. No view from this room. The view was the backside of a building with garbage dumpsters. I wish this was communicated in the description. Felt much safer in the woods than in this area of Anchorage.
There is a charity facility close by that is frequented by homeless individuals. Some ask for money, others sit around close. One was in the car park of the Arctic Fox. No harm but quite unnerving.
The apartment was spacious, modern, and very clean. There is a full kitchen which is supplied with all that is needed for light cooking, and a lovely bathroom. However, be aware of three things: 1. STAIRS. The middle and upper floor apartments are reached by lengthy outdoor stairs. 2. TRAINS: Alaska Railroad excursions cross a street approximately 0.1 mile away and train whistles sound day and night. Very loud! 3. PLANES: the apartment is 1.5 miles from Merrill Airfield and apparently directly in the path of takeoffs of light planes.
A nice 2 bedroom apartment, just 10 minutes from the centre of town.
Good facilities, full kitchen and access to laundry facilities.
Our apartment was very comfortable and well appointed.
Happy to recommend.
Our nice, simple studio apartment was a great option for our stay in Anchorage. Easy walk to downtown and waterfront. Our host, Jeff, was very responsive and helpful.

The property is a 10 minute walk away from restaurants and railway. However, there are a lot of homeless people in the vicinity and it seemed a little unsafe at times, as it’s in a remote area.
