Overall it was a pretty nice place to stay at. I would suggest avoiding room number 5 or room number 7 because these two rooms do share a bathroom. The staff was friendly and accommodating. They did have nice snacks and drinks.

Very nice inn. Very small room (not enough space to lay a suitcase open on the floor). But still a nice stay with good views. They also have some snacks at the lobby, which is very helpful!

It's a house converted into a hotel in a quite neighborhood in Girdwood. You have to be quite as walls are thin. There's a grocery store close to it if you need anything.

I like everything about this place. It has a homey feel to it. There’s a restaurant and pub at walking distance. Karen I hope I got her name right is very friendly, helpful and accommodating. The bed was super comfy. The snacks provided is very much appreciated. Will definitely come back to this place.

Our particular room was clean but small. No room for luggage , no drawers and no closets. We managed to. Bathroom/shower was really good with good water pressure. Very clean and bed was nice and firm. We had an excellent view of the mountains facing the street. Breakfast and lounge area was always open and stocked with drinks and fruit. Coffee always available. Great location to town park and a couple good restaurants. Would recommend. Beware some rooms share bathrooms. Be careful when you book.

Great location, cozy/welcoming common sofa area for sitting, and an ample breakfast spread to power our ski day! The Ski View Room (#3) was a little tight for 2 adults and all our gear, but conveniently located near the entrance on the ground floor. If I visit again, I might consider a slightly larger room like the Park View.
