Wonderful view, clean and spacious apartment

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.

Afraid in Anchorage

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.

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.

Comfortable unit, more like an apartment than a hotel room. The property is located at the end of a short street- which makes it a little quiet in terms of having no through traffic, but also a little dark and deserted feeling if you arrive late at night. Hosts were great about communicating what I needed to know to access unit and be comfortable there.

I assume they will be replacing couch since it’s worn out. Bedroom & closet were fine & met our needs. It was nice to have 2 luggage racks. The staff was great. Provided excellent instructions prior to our arrival. I called once because I couldn’t get in laundry room & they answered immediately & provided tips. The area is noisy & looks unsafe.

We stayed in room 5 (I believe). It was on the top floor and was very nicely laid out and well appointed. The bathroom was nice and the bedroom was ample size. The living area felt very spacious with an abundance of windows for natural light. Even though air conditioning was not supplied, there was a ceiling fan and windows to open in the bedroom. We were in busy Anchorage, but the nighttime wasn't especially noisy. The only negative was the surrounding area was a bit shabby and there were a few homeless people that had taken up residence nearby. The police made an appearance and asked them to relocate.

The property was clean, roomy, comfortable and very nice. The beds were comfortable, only down side was the noise of the planes due to proximity to airport. And, there is a great little coffee shop within walking distance (AK Alchemist!!)

Safety Concerns: Regrettably, the property is situated in an unsafe area. As a guest, safety is paramount, and this aspect requires immediate attention. Inaccurate Information and Uncomfortable Conditions: Furthermore, the property information and photos provided on Expedia do not align with the actual conditions. The living area is notably small, the sofa bed appears old and unclean, and the beds are uncomfortable. These discrepancies impact the overall quality of the stay.

The room itself we have no major complaints with although this is not a traditional hotel in the sense that there is no one on the property (for check in, etc.), no facilities of any kind, etc.The room itself was well equipped for longer stays. Very limited dining in the immediate area.The train whistle can be heard every once in awhile but it was not too disruptive. There were screaming homeless people in the lot in front of our room one night and the area feels unsafe IMO. I would personally not walk anywhere from there. It's off the beaten path from downtown and just sketchy. There was a sign in the room stating that guests should keep doors closed and locked at all times due to recent bear sightings. My husband and I (he born and bred in AK) laughed and said, OK -more like drug addicts/homeless as opposed to bears. I guess anything is possible but I would be more concerned about the latter. Maybe someone on site might help the feeling of being isolated in a rather concerning part of town.

Fair, with problems

It was an ok stay. The hotel is in a fair location, at the rougher end of downtown. The unit was reasonably well maintained and had everything I needed for my two nights stay. Unfortunately, what let it down is the wi fi not working for the vast majority of the time I was there. As there was also no 4G, as a solo traveler, I felt quite isolated, being unable to communicate with family back home or with the owner. This made things particularly awkward the morning I was supposed to catch a train to Seward and I was unable to either call a Uber or look for directions. Fortunately, the Ramada next door saved the day. I understand that the wi fi can occasionally be down, but not for a whole 48 hours, and not when you are paying nearly $ 250 a night.

My overall rating is a 5 for Arctic Fox for several reasons. First, Jeff was very responsive which was great. The place was mostly clean, however, I noticed a couple areas were missed such as above eye level in the shower had stuff stuck so I assume only the bottom part of the wall was cleaned and also there was hair on the bathroom floor. The floor was clearly mopped but a vacuum or swifter probably needed to be used first before mopping. Also, when the fridge door was opened, there was dirt caked on the floor. it seemed like the nooks and crannies weren’t being cleaned. One thing that was great was that the living room rug was wet when we arrived so it was good knowing the carpet was cleaned between guests. The area isn’t fancy but It’s very central and we were able to walk to downtown which saved us a lot on Uber. We felt perfectly safe. Noise…. this is the one major downside. What others wrote about the noise is absolutely true. The train horns sound like it’s in the unit with you and it seems some train operators are just being jerks with how long they blow the horn. trains seem to start around 5:30 and stop around 11:30. The trains though are not the fault of the owner though so just be aware you’ll hear it. The noise from the unit above was also insane. There was sometimes noise all night between midnight and 6am and also the toilet flushing sounded like it was in my room. Jeff was very responsive though and asked them to tone it down I would stay here again.

This was our second stay at the Arctic Fox but our first time with the new ownership. Not the same experience. We missed the wonderful breakfast and social ambiance that we so loved. There was no contact with the new ownership other than by phone or email. The kitchen wasn't nearly appointed as other BnB's we've stayed at. We had to purchase many items that we left for the next guests. The bathroom toilet seat was broken, everything was dusty and the floors were dirty. We stayed in the bottom floor as that was the only room available. The sidewalks leading to the room are cracked and chipped, dangerous tripping hazard. The picture you see here offers a glorious look from a side view. Always try for an upper floor when you stay. The Arctic Fox could really be lovely with some maintenance and care.

This B&b doesn’t look great when driving up to it but when you open the door you find that the apartment is totally remodeled and is very clean. We decided to go with the budget option and had a tiny, but adequate room. We shared a bathroom with one other couple, which was never a problem. The door to the more deluxe room with an en-suite was open. That room was very big and beautifully decorated. We were able to walk downtown to the trolley and museum. The biggest issue was of the homeless and drug addicts on the way downtown. That issue would be the same in any of the downtown hotels.

Neighborhood was not great, pictures shown here are NOT one of the units I stayed in. Most light switches didn't turn anything on, the lamps didn't work, bathroom outlet by sink didn't work so had to get ready in the front room with a dim light. Toilet was wobbly.

The look of the place from the outside and the neighborhood(especially for a woman traveling alone) is kind of sketchy—the place, perhaps looks better when it’s sunny and not rainy. However, when you get into the building, it’s a little oasis. There wasn’t a hair dryer —but after I called, the management remedied the situation quickly. The only negative—and I’m not sure if it was coming above me at the place, or on the outside—but music was being played loudly —and I could keep my window open. Overall though, I would recommend—there is an open shared living space that’s like a living/dining room and a kitchen —w/lots of breakfast options. The rate for the place was very reasonable. You’re also not far from the Anchorage airport or the downtown area.

Comfortable, clean apt in relatively safe area

Stayed 3 nights in top floor apt, 1 bed, 1 bath. Clean, has everything you need, lots of windows, great view from this top floor, open private deck. Felt very safe at unit. Will hear train noises so if you're sensitive, use sound machine. Can walk to some local eatery places but area is kind of sketchy at night. Walk with someone should be fine. The management friendly & responded very quickly to any concerns. Check in, in/out of your apt door is with use of electronic keypad & my keypad did fail once. Management responded quickly so I was only delayed by 30min. I did see 2 other travelers in diff units having difficulty with their keypads. My only suggestions are: since daylight is longer in summer, need more black out curtains in living room area for sofa sleepers; laundry room needs longer hours (open 4pm-10pm) and if we are out most of the day sightseeing, we do laundry in the evening... difficult to get more than 1 load in, esp if all units are sharing 2 machines.

The property was very nice. The beds were comfortable, and the common area and breakfast options were very good. The shower head placement was a little low in our unit (minor dink). The location was central, but unsure about the area around the property as we got in late evening and left early the next morning.

Great locaiton. Cozy vibe

Check-in procrss was confusing; provided feedback to update the instructions. Remotely managed but quick responses via text. Accomodate keeping luggage after checkout.

A pretty decent 'condo'.

Not the best part of town but not bad. We walked from there to main part of downtown.

It was a nice commons area. Very well supplied. Room was small but adequate. Slept fine. Had flown from the east coast and we went to bed about 7:30. Got up at 6:00 ish so we slept good. The inside of the B&B was a nice surprise since the outside was well, less than desirable. Overall, it fit our need and we enjoyed our stay.

This property was the perfect stay. It was 5-10 min walks to restaurants/bars, souvenir shops and excursion pick ups. The place was clean and provided basic amenities. Other than the seagulls it was very quiet. I would definitely stay here again!

The property does not provide any transportation or connectivity to rail depot as other hotels do. With other hotels they would directly pick your luggage from rail depot. There is no front desk service and no one really picks up phone. Also there is so much noise of trains if you open window. But thanks for providing clean room. For such high price tag of equivalent to nearby hotels, I am not happy with the stay at all.

We really enjoyed our stay. Right on the outskirts of downtown within walking minutes of shopping and restaurants. We had a shared bath but it was very nice and the room itself was cozy and the bed and linens comfortable. It was serve yourself breakfast options of coffee, teas, bagels, cereal, yogurt, fruits which was convenient. The place was immaculate inside with nice common area seating both inside and out. Check in was a breeze with a coded entry door.

So happy with our stay here. It was warm and inviting inside and our room had a very comfy bed. They were really generous in allowing us a super early check in since our flight got into Anchorage so early and very helpful in accommodating our schedule. I really appreciated the friendliness from both Jeff and Sawyer.

Excellent services from staff. I was in unit 3. I called from airport and was granted an early checkin which was about 2 hours. That was appreciated. I was able to check in, leave my luggage and go explore while i had energy. The unit is beautiful and comfortable. Unit 3 has a dining table with 3 chairs, sofa and comfortable bed. Storage space, extra pillows, new towels, full kitchen and spacious bathroom. Some tips. Be prepared to leave shoes at the door. Very nice thick rug in the room as well. If you wear makeup please bring remover wipes so the face towels are not stained. The unit is quiet and heated up very well. I was able to walk to nearby restaurants and shops. If you're comfortable driving, rent a car from the airport and take your own tours. Stop off at a grocery store for drinks and snacks and enjoy the area. I forgot about the deck sitting area. It looked nice. I was just too tired.

I truly enjoyed my stay. The building and room were comfortable and like home. The area was quiet. I truly enjoyed the Inn way more than going to a hotel. Thank you, Jeff, for the communication and hospitality. You were a great host and I had a good time conversing with you and your daughter. Until next time, Cheers!

First the people were fantastic. Some of the friendliest I’ve met. However there is so much more to a property than the staff. First the overall property is in pretty rough shape and the staff were working hard to get it up to speed however much of the property was under repair. The room we had was on the third floor and had a nice view from the living room however the stairs are narrow and if you have luggage you will have to carry one at a time. The bedrooms really could benefit from new beds - they were uncomfortable and incredibly springy. The window treatments did not block out the street lights - highly recommend investing in proper drapes. The ceiling fans were nice especially when trying to cool off. The shower was okay - the water pressure was a little low. Cleanliness wise there are some areas that can be addressed such as windowsills, corners of rooms. Oh and please invest in pillows. Simple touches like drapes, pillows and tidying up the second floor deck will step this properly up. For people who complain about noise - it’s a city - I hear the same noises at my home. The only drawback is I can close my windows. The windows here need to be open to get a breeze as there is no AC. But the noise wasn’t that bad. I really do believe that with some investment this place could be a great alternative with a great price vs the hotel chains.

Unfortunately this place is not in a very good area of Anchorage. Also we found the rooms on the main floor so noisy. There is no insulation in the walls And the rooms upstairs you can hear everything. It also was advertised as a B & B but we were disappointed to find it was only a bag of cold food left in the fridge overnight. The bathroom had been recently redone and was nice. Just would not recommend this place to anyone due to the area and noise.

New bed will make it (almost) perfect

Beautiful interior, spacious room, lovely and CLEAN. We don’t love a shared bathroom (and if you book direct, you can probably get a private bath for the price we paid here :(, but it was fine for one night. Two drawbacks - cold breakfast in a bag (and half was prepackaged junk) and a very worn out bed. Not having good sleep made the breakfast worse, I’m sure! The bed has a big middle dip and we both kept sliding into it. So…not really a bed and breakfast (where I stay to get a good and special meal, not a cold egg and plain bagel) but a clean respite for a night.

I called three days before checkin to update the number of guests. The man I talked to said that because there were enough beds for the extra guests, there would not be an additional charge. But when we arrived, they charged us an additional $120.00. We could have cancelled three days before but not after we arrived.

Beautiful, clean B&B with great staff

Loved this B&B! I knew that we had a shared bathroom, and it was SO clean and only shared between 2 rooms. The kitchen, dining area, and living room are beautifully decorated and cozy, and the staff (we met at least 4 people) were friendly and accommodating. I would absolutely stay here again.

I thought the location was OK but would opt for another hotel closer to downtown next time. First time staying at a B&B and the noise level was way higher than expected. Literally conversations going on to my right, left and below me while trying to sleep. I thought I would be able to walk downtown but the homeless population near the hotel made it very uncomfortable. Approached twice by homeless men while walking to and from the property. Outside of brewing hot tea or coffee from tap water, no drink options provided. I ended up going to Walmart to buy a case of bottled water. I would recommend a courtesy bottle of water in the room. While sitting out on the deck, a man in a high rise across the street kept yelling 'hey lady'. Not the most peaceful experience. The best of the stay was meeting some great people over breakfast, all of which were very satisfied with the room (and had rental cars).
