Although not in the best area this home was lovely with many specific touches eg. Eggs, milk, coffee machine, toiletries. Great amenities and very homely feel. Bus stop across the road. Everything you need - we really enjoyed our stay!

We loved staying with Kesh and Lydia. Their was comfortable and full of amenities! It was located in a central location in Anchorage which was perfect for exploring the city!!!

Our stay at Kesh and Lydia's was one of the best Airb&b experiences we've had. Not only were they extremely communicative, welcoming and informative about the town, but they gave us an amazingly perfect amount of Privacy as well. We felt completely at home. The yard was beautiful and the house, bed and furniture was comfortable and clean. They even left us breakfast options and coffee! We would recommend them In a heartbeat.

nice place

The place is clean, safe,and comfortable. Kesh is very informative and gave us a lot of tips for travel and food. We will definitely come back next time we are here.

Although we only stayed for one night we wished we had booked for more. All aspects of this booking were very good including communication, welcome, the property, linen, bed, bathroom etc. It is quaint and full of character. Lydia was away on the night we stayed so we had the place to ourselves. Kesh met us and we really enjoyed the two hours we spent chatting. Thanks very much for your hospitality.

Great place to stay. Had everything I needed and it was a great location. I liked the privacy of an entire house but still very cozy. I would definitely recommend to others.

This air BnB according to the taxi driver is in one of the more troubled area of anchorage however we had no problems despite initial concerns. It was very convenient to the train station and easy to get to other parts of anchorage. The building is in need of repair and the gardens unkept, however it is clear that a lot of work and care has gone in to making the interior homely and welcoming and was clean with a very comfortable bed and lovely linen. The host was good at leaving a note with needed information and left some basics in the fridge .

Jennifer's place was perfect for me and my boyfriend's need for a quick night stay upon initial arrival to Anchorage. Comfortable and affordable. Jennifer was very accommodating with check in and check out. Thanks, Jennifer!

Jennifer was very accommodating from the night we flew in through our stay. Two days after we checked out of her bed and breakfast she again checked on us to see if she could assist us in any way. The breakfast was delicious and location just a short walk to downtown. I would definitely recommend staying at Jennifer's place if you're seeking a comfortable bed and breakfast located near downtown.

Jennifer was a very helpful and accommodative host. She allowed us to park our airstream trailer on the property during our stay and helped sort out a friend to pick us up from dinner and take our dog to a pet sitter. The room we stayed in was super clean and very comfortable. The key here though is that it is just a room in a house and not the entire property. The bathroom is shared with the other guests. This was not entirely clear as the property appears when you filter for whole properties only. Also the location is a little dicey and if you want to walk downtown it means passing through a couple of rough blocks. Coming from a large city we weren't too uncomfortable with it but it's worth being aware of. Also the walk to downtown is probably around 20 minutes at a good pace. In any case still a positive experience given how helpful Jennifer was and the price was very fair.

Jennifer was great at communicating, very hospitable, and made us a delicious breakfast. Thanks again!

Jennifer is very hospitable and made us feel at home in her cozy cabin. She had activity brochures for us, made us hot breakfasts everyday, and cooked a salmon bake. Everything was very tasty. The cabin is super cozy. There's an electric heater that kept the rooms warm and toasty. Also, her little dog, JJ, is very cute and well-behaved; you wouldn't even know he was there. The cabin is an easy 20 min walk, so you can definitely save money on that rental. Overall we were very happy during our trip and would stay here again in the future.

Our stay at Jennifer's place was absolutely amazing! My husband and I had such a great time and Jennifer was so accommodating and nice. She had so much great information to share about the area and cool places to go. It was an easy walk to the main tourist-y areas of Anchorage, but nice and quiet at night. If we get a chance to go back to Alaska we will definitely be staying here again. I highly recommend staying here, this is definitely the best place to stay in the Anchorage area.

Jennifer was a great host. She did everything possible to accommodate us. She takes pride in her knowledge of the town and the history of her unique property. We already knew what we wanted to do during our stay, but if you didn't know, she would hook you up! We had a great stay and breakfast was fantastic. Book here if you're lucky! Oh yes and the bed was super comfy and there were beautiful cut flowers in the window sill. AND the house itself was such a quirky treat, it has rich history in Anchorage, as well as unique Alaska log and more modern (yet now fully retro) designs. The bathroom separates the 2 bedrooms so you get a sound buffer. And the shower has a really cool deep window where you put your stuff, but then it has a sliding glass panel so it doesn't get wet. So if you want to stay near downtown this is the place to be! Loved it!

Our visit was better then we could have imagined.

My mom and I had an amazing time staying in Nellie! We were initially worried about being cold, because we visited in early November, but the bus was warm and cozy when we used the wood-burning stove. There were also plenty of blankets to use at night! Theresa was thoughtful and attentive--checking in to make sure we had enough wood and water, and even bringing over baked goods from Carlyle's bakery! She was also extremely helpful in terms of advice for things to do in and around Anchorage. Staying in the bus, and meeting Theresa and her daughter was definitely the highlight of our trip! Thank you!

We couldn't pass up the opportunity to stay on a renovated bus and we are so glad we decided to stay there. Nellie is nestled on our host's driveway and is a perfect combination of cute and utility. We enjoyed staying in this cozy abode while exploring Anchorage. Theresa was very helpful with day trip and restaurant suggestions. We were concerned with sleeping with so much light out and she provided sleeping masks and light-blocking curtains. And they left us some delicious and much appreciated bakery treats! It was a great stay, thank you!

I had an amazing experience in Nellie, she was clean, comfortable and decorated beautifully. Theresa & Carlyle were wonderful hosts - making sure I had everything I needed, provided a few extra goodies (delicious baked goods from Carlyle's work, delicious!) and came through with some excellent suggestions for day hikes in the local area. I would recommend Nellie to anyone visiting Anchorage that wants a unique experience - it wont be regretted.

Staying aboard Nellie was one of the most fun and memorable adventures I've had and here's why: 1) The bus: Nellie is an old tour bus refurbished as a tiny home. Except for running water it has everything to call the place home. Theresa and Carlyle have really taken care in making Nellie a cozy and unbelievably cute place to stay. There is a full size bed in the back of the bus, with a TV, DVD player and selection of good movies. As stated on the posting, the toilet is a compost bucket, which at first made me a little nervous but it really is not much different than a regular toilet, you do your business and throw some sawdust on it, and when the bucket/bag is full you throw it out, super easy. Everything about the bus makes you feel like you're in another time and place, it really transports you to an easier time, time slows down and you with it, it is the absolute perfect place to get away from your busy life and just take it all in. I had a really good time there and it was the perfect place for two people, but I will say this, it is a tiny home, and it can feel a little claustrophobic, if you have a problem with this or if you're with a 3+ group, this is not the place for you. Also, you have to climb/jump to get into bed and into the shower, the hosts have provided a step stool to make it easier, but if you have limited mobility, this might be a little inconvenient for you. And now 2) the hosts: This was a last minute trip after I had to cancel another trip and not wanting to miss out on vacation days this year, I booked a stay in Anchorage with very little knowledge of the place. Theresa was super nice and patient with me even before my trip, giving me suggestions about places to eat and things to do in Anchorage. Communication was super easy and she was amazing since before I met her. When I actually got to Anchorage, she was flexible with my check-in time, and I had the pleasure of meeting them both when I checked-in. They are an adorable couple and took the time to welcome us, and show us around the bus, and tell us about Anchorage. This trip was to celebrate my recent birthday, and they welcomed me with a delicious cake and a mini bottle of champagne, also cookies and delicious apples. It was all delicious and incredible thoughtful. T & C were amazing hosts, this was my first experience with airbnb and it did not disappoint. In the next couple of days we saw more of Theresa and she is an unbelievably nice, warm and interesting person, I really enjoyed meeting her and she and her husband made the stay in Anchorage even more incredible. Great experience, lovely people!

What a awesome unique experience! We loved Nellie and Theresa and Carlyle were awesome in making us feel right at home! We recommend and would definitely come back when in the Anchorage area!

My daughter and I chose the Nellie bus because we wanted a place to relax after long hours of shopping for tools, hardware and material for our housebuilding project. It was exactly what we wanted, and more. So relaxing. So welcoming. So warm. Theresa and Carlyle do a wonderful job.

Larry was great- greeted us and gave us recommendations for the area. Breakfast was amazing, as well.

Place was great and Larry was very nice! Great location.

They were very nice and accommodating. Place was nice and was very clean. He even jogged in front if the car from one property to the next.

Larry was an incredible host to my friends and I during our stay in Anchorage. He greeted us upon our arrival (at 1:30AM!) and provided us with a little tour around the condo. He was even kind enough to give us a brief on the city and review a map with us to point out all the "must see" places. The condo is cute, private and is even better than it looks online! Comfortably suited 3 people and even has the cutest outdoor backyard where we enjoyed our coffee every morning to plan our day. The property is gorgeous and a super short walk and you're in the heart of downtown Anchorage- we walked everywhere, no problem! Larry offers a light housekeeping after a couple days which was extremely convenient to come home to fresh towels after a long afternoon of hiking. I can't express how thoroughly pleased I was with the condo, our host, and my stay as a whole- completely surpassed expectations. Larry is a generous and accommodating host. I would stay here again in a heartbeat- and hope that I do!

Larry kept in touch with us prior to our arrival and the apt was clean and ready for us to check in. The location was great and we could walk to downtown.

Nice little place, comfortable bed, has everything you need and Larry is extremely hospitable.

Highly recommend! Better than the photo's, perfect location right near a grocery store, a few blocks from town and a few blocks from the coastal trail, hosts were amazing with lots of local info and the 1 free breakfast was sensational! Couldn't more highly reccomend! The internet was fast and the free laundry a bonus!! Thanks so much for hosting guys!

Everything was perfect. Thanks

We absolutely loved our stay here! It was our first time in Alaska and we could not have been made to feel more welcome by Sue and Mike! The minute we pulled into the driveway, we saw a young moose walking around in the bushes next to it. The cottage was perfect and had everything we needed, and then some. Mike did an amazing job of explaining the ins and outs of our stay, suggesting some great things to do in the area, and the process for visiting the gym down the road for showering. It is a very short drive to the gym and the staff there was friendly when we arrived for our showers as well. Thank you so much for everything! We were left with nothing but positive memories of this place and would definitely stay again!

Lovely cabin, thoughtful and attentive hosts

Sue and Mike were wonderful! As a solo female traveler safety was of the utmost importance. They were not only accommodating and hospitable, but they were very reassuring in making sure I felt safe. They even offered someone to help with a guided hike so that I wasn't completely alone and even cane down and brought me bear mace. The place itself is cute and cozy and clean. There is a portable potty but it is literally right outside the door, absolutely no walking to it involved and it is very clean. The bed and blankets were also clean and comfy and I even split my sleeping between the downstairs bed and upstairs bed (because of my irrational fear of bears.) You drive to the gym to shower and work out if you choose to and it's only 3 miles down the road. Sooooo happy I stayed here. Would have spent way more on a hotel I couldn't afford that probably wouldn't have even been as nice. Very happy with my stay.

Awesome cabin and even better hosts!

Sue and Mike were the most gracious hosts I've met in my travels. They were always available and helpful whenever I needed anything. The cabin is thoroughly cozy and stocked with everything you could ever need. I really appreciated the quiet, out-of-the-city setting, no car noise or city lights and plenty of privacy. I will definitely be back for another stay!

Sue and Mike were genuinely kind, open, selfless hosts; their picturesque cottage was just what we were looking for to kick off our trip! Initially, my wife and I had not a clue how to spend our 10 days in Alaska...we had considered making a home base of Anchorage. Through my interactions with Sue, she helped shape our time in Alaska into one of the most memorable trips I've experienced...even when it meant steering us to stay outside of Anchorage for part of our trip (read: not only at this listing). This is the kind of care and selflessness that sets hosts apart! When we arrived, Sue and Mike gave us a great little history of and orientation to Alaska and its culture. Truly gracious and kind hosts. And as for the space, it was so comfy and well maintained...definitely the coziest "roughing it" I've ever done :) The bed was comfy, and the view was beautiful. For us, the location was perfect, too --it's an easy trip to anywhere in Anchorage. Would highly recommend this place if you plan to stay a couple nights or a whole week! Great people; great place to stay.

The cottage was clean and incredibly comfortable. I loved that it was outside of downtown Anchorage in a quiet neighborhood. Sue and Mike were very kind and accommodating. Have recommended their place to many of my friends already!

Really nice and clean cottage. Sue and Mike was really nice and welcoming. The communication was great and I really enjoyed the place.

The place was really clean and very easy to find!

Host was awesome. Keyless entry. Cookies were provided. Everything was clean. My stay was awesome. Proximity to the university and hospitals makes life easy if you are in Anchorage on business and need to visit those places.

Erlin was very accommodating with our somewhat chaotic schedule. The place was great! Absolutely gorgeous kitchen! Place is about 15 minutes from 4th / 5th ave and about 20 from the airport. Very quaint establishment.

The apartment was very clean, spacious, and equipped with everything we needed (shampoo, coffee, etc.). It was easy to find and the arrival instructions were very simple! We had a great stay here. The location is okay for exploring Anchorage, but only as long as you have a car.

The interior is amazing. Everything was so clean! It's also in town within walking distance of two coffee shops and a sushi restaurant which is very convenient. All in all I recommend it and would come again.

Awesome stay for our one night in town. Apartment was clean and exactly as described. Thank you!

This was our first trip on AirBnb and we were so glad that we chose Erin's place to stay. It was so nice and small and just perfect for us. It was reasonably close to downtown and close to lots of good restaurants as well. We had a blast and if we come to Anchorage again we would definitely stay here.

Everything happened for the best. Michelle was very attentive and did everything that we feel comfortable. The house is perfect with access to the kitchen, the living room, the garden, it feels like home. We stayed there for 2 weeks and I highly recommend to anyone who wants to stay in Anchorage to choose housing provided by Michelle. It's hard to find better value with a host as accommodating and caring.

Michelle was an awesome host! I stayed here for a week and a half, and my stay could not have gone more smoothly. The room exceeded my expectations from the description online. The room is very spacious, clean and tidy, and the house is really cool ("artsy" is definitely the word)! The location is a little off the beaten path, but at least two routes of the People Mover (that's what Anchorage's city bus is called) are accessible within a couple blocks; downtown Anchorage is about a forty-minute bus ride away. Michelle went above and beyond in too many ways for me to describe exhaustively. This was my first time ever using AirBnB, and I could not have asked for a better host. Seriously, people: if you're coming to Anchorage, stay here. (...except when I'm in town. *GRIN*)

Would stay there again. Very quiet spot

Michelle welcomed us last minute, and was super professional. I'd say you get what you pay for here...the area is near the university, seems to house a lot of students. Definitely great for a quick stop when you don't want to shell out $ for a view or hotel downtown.

Everything was perfect. Very clean. Nice bed. Nice living room and kitchen. She would help me out with any question I had

Michelle was an excellent host.

Michelle was an incredible host. She's very friendly, helpful and reliable. Due to some unforseen circumstances, I needed a place to stay as soon as I landed in Anchorage. Michelle took me in with no questions ask. Her room was very comfy and felt very homie. The next time I'm staying in Anchorage, Michelle is the first person I will check to see if her place is available. Thank you again so much Michelle!

Michelle was very warm and welcoming and eager to ensure we were comfortable. Her listing describes it quite well. The two bedrooms we stayed in were both clean and comfortable, though we preferred the larger bedroom with the private bathroom. She supplied a fan when I requested one and plenty of pretty towels. The smaller bedroom had lots of closet space and the larger bedroom had a chest of drawers so storage was not a problem. The shared bathroom was smaller and less comfortable to use. The kitchen was spacious with equipment we could use, which we appreciated. There was also some refrigerator space. It is well-used and maybe needed a little attention regarding cleaning but a nice amenity. We also had access to the washer and dryer and proved with soap which was generous. The stairway and entry to the utility area is a little awkward and requires mindful attention on the stairs. I would recommend this to adaptable people who don't need fancy but enjoy connecting with other people. The price and location are both very good and, again, Michelle is warm and gracious.

Beverly was the sweetest host. She thoughtfully provided snacks and healthy refreshments based on our interests, and was so flexible with our late check-in and early check-out. She's very responsive to messages via airbnb, provides so much information on things to do and how to get around, and readily answers all questions! The kitchen is also well stocked, which was the greatest surprise. My friend and I stayed for two nights and had long day trips, so the studio was a perfect, peaceful home base. It's only a shame we couldn't stay longer and chat with Bev and Fred!

We had a great stay at this nice studio. Had lots of space and a kitchen with everything you could need. We loved the little side porch, a nice little outdoor sitting area to relax. The space was very clean. And if you are unsure of what to do for the day, they have lots of books to help you find something.

This place is located in a nice quiet residential area. The set up is nice and it's very homey. We love the split level and it seems big! In the morning we saw a moose in the Nieghbors yard, so cool!!!

Very cozy and homey! We are sound sleepers, so the proximity to the airport did not bother us at all. This is also very close to Earthquake Park, which was informative about the 1964 earthquake. Host and hostess were very welcoming and shared some stories with us. We also appreciated the artwork in the the apartment. Just delightful altogether! Highly recommended.

I loved my trip to Alaska, and it was because of this wonderful experience. The home is located near earthquake park and running trails. The host are wonderful, friendly, and communicate clearly. I would recommend this spot to anyone! -Christopher Cooke Salt Lake City, Utah.

This is the second time my family and I stayed at Beverly's to catch a early flight out of Anchorage. It's a very nice studio apartment with lots of restaurants, stores and shops near by. It is only a ten minute drive from the airport. We were able to relax and get a goodnight of sleep before heading back to Texas. Thank you Beverly and Fred!

Great private apartment located in the upstairs of the house. Very comfortable. Perfect for both a short stay or longer if spending time in the Anchorage area. Very close to downtown, airport, and anything needed is a close drive or short walk. Neighborhood is very nice and located very close to the walking/bike path for a pleasant evening stroll. Would have liked to stay longer :)

Great location and a beautiful space! Beverly was so helpful getting us settled. We would definitely stay again!

Mark couldn't have been more welcoming, friendly and helpful. It was a very pleasant stay, a great value in a quiet neighborhood only 3-4 miles from the ANC airport. He went over the top by providing car service when I picked up and dropped off my rental car.

Mark has a wonderful 1 person environment. The single bed was comfortable and the open space easy to move around. The lake view is worth seeing! He was helpful in direction for place to eat. This is one of the best airbnb that I had stay in!
