This little Bungalow is just adorable. It's kind of like a Hobbit House! Bungalow 8 has low ceilings. Be careful renting it if you're 6' or over. The property is nice! Now, the neighborhood, it is "up and coming" "in the middle of a revival", be that as it may, the area is safe enough to walk around, during the light hours. We'll stay there again!

Anchorage Cottage

The property was a quirky little cottage that was perfect for us. Very nice rehab of a pre 1964 earthquake building. Just as described in listing with outdoor seating, a grill and a firepit. Slumber Village was a great starting location for all of our excursions around Anchorage. Central to everything. Thanks Ross!

Awesome!

Booking a last minute trip with a cat can be stressful... But with Ross, you're in great hands! From the adorably comfortable size of the unit to the prompt & amazing responses from the host for any questions or concerns, I highly recommend booking here! It's a Hobbit Hovel with low ceilings and a cute little bathroom, which was perfect for my barely 5ft self. Sadly, whomever owned the unit before had either not installed or ruined the shower rod, leaving it sitting in the shower. And the hairdryer. BUT ROSS TO THE RESCUE! He got things sorted and had maintenance on it ASAP. So rest assured, the shower curtain/rod was fixed! Ross also looked for an extra hairdryer but no luck. No worries though! Ross was wonderful at offering solutions, and even offered different accommodations while the issues with the shower were resolved. They were little hiccups that didn't bother me, and Ross is a wonderful host! Will definitely come back here in the future.
