Downtown Anchorage
9.8 out of 10, Exceptional, (76 reviews)
"We enjoyed our stay and loved the convenience to restaurants and downtown area. The beds are very comfortable and the fireplace was nice on cold days. The kitchen was nicely stocked. The garage was very convenient given the March snowstorm. We had over 8" of snow during our stay and luckily are comfortable shoveling because there wasn't a plow that came by to do the driveway or nearby street. Overall would stay again!"
