Great little getaway place

This place was great overall. Just a heads up for people staying here; there is no elevator. If you have issues with stairs, request Room #1 or #2. Room #3 (where we stayed) is down 4 stairs, but it's not too bad. Room was clean and the bed was extremely comfortable. There are several eateries within waking distance.

Ski Inn Girdwood

Loved the placed, its several rooms in an older home but very nicely decorated and quality decor, sheets, towels. The only downfall was no room for suitcases or to hang some clothes. Also there was no breakfast but their was a frig full of fruit, juice,yogurt,bread, bagels,cheese, sparkling waters. I would rent again if I'm back in Alaska.

Was nice having an en suite. The doors of the room next to mine were very creaky and made lots of noise every time they were opened or closed, but the room was comfortable and the shower was hot. I appreciated the food choices and made use of them.

Luxurious linens and towels compared to all our previous stays in the last 5 weeks. High end snack and breakfast items all included for you to choose from. Sooo quiet from all previous stays in Alaska. We felt like queens. Beautiful artwork. Can't say enough nice things.

Wonderful stay!

Cute place! Loved the character outside and in. The common room was nice and stocked with bagels, yogart, cheese, juice, coffee, tea and other breakfast stuff. We stayed in the Ski View room which was small but had everything we needed! (Tip: don't bring a lot of baggage inside!)

The room was small but adequate. I should have booked a room with a private bathroom. We avoided using the shared bathroom as the couple of times we had to use it, one of the other guests had left pee on the floor. This was not at the fault of the owner of the property, just something for me to remember when booking in the future.

Kathleen

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
If you wanted a room where anyone in the multi unit house - or neighborhood - could sneak up the back outside stairs and easily enter by hopping through the window at waist level into your bedroom on the second floor, this is the place for you. I called the manager who was aware of the issue. Nothing could be done about it. It was sold out tonight and no one ever complained before. Maybe because Alaska is usually cold???  This is a rare warm spell. Lucky me.  Women traveling solo have safety concerns. This is a solo room. I am a travel agent and was a commercial hospitality liability underwriter in another life. This should have been disclosed. I again viewed the photo of the room - there is nothing to indicate that there is a walkway and stairway outside the window. I can send pictures of the bedroom from the outside looking in from the stairway.  It should not be offered as a bedroom. Make it into anything other than a sleeping unit if the safety element cannot be fixed.  This is a huge fail This is NOT acceptable.
