About this property

Your Home Away From Home

Cozy private bedroom with bath in the lower level of our home’s daylight basement. Access is through a side gate, down a short set of steps, and along a pathway to your private entrance. Please note—the walkway has a slight slope and may not be easily accessible for guests with limited mobility.

The bedroom features a queen-size with a memory foam mattress and adjustable base, plus a full-size sofa bed for up to 2 additional guests, allowing a maximum of 4 guests total. *A $25 /night booking fee will be added to your cost for each additional guest over 2 people.

A small kitchenette is provided for your convenience, equipped with a mini refrigerator, microwave, dishes, utensils, and complimentary coffee and tea. Please note there are no other cooking surfaces available.

Enjoy a Smart TV with internet access in the bedroom, free guest WiFi, and a private sauna to unwind at the end of the day. Guests also have use of a game room and lounge area, as well as direct access to the private backyard.

Our home is located in a peaceful residential cul-de-sac, close to the U-Med district, shopping, movie theaters, bike trails, parks, and Cheney Lake Park.

We share our home with one dog and one cat, but they do not have access to guest areas. The staircase to the upstairs is separated by curtains at both ends and a locked security gate behind the upstairs curtain for everyone’s peace of mind. The bedroom is located below our kitchen, so you may hear occasional kitchen activity, though we do our best to keep noise to a minimum.

We look forward to welcoming you and making your stay as comfortable, relaxing, and memorable as possible.

Clean, exactly what is posted!

Very clean, kind people. The only thing I wished was different was a little less priority on the games and pool table and more of a living room/ couch where you can watch the TV in the living room.

Alaska return

I was stationed in Anchorage from 1989-1993 and fell in love with the place. It was amazing to return over 30 years later. I'm still in love and will be back!The AB&B was exactly as advertised and we were invited to a Memorial day cook out by the hosts. They are great too.

Great stay

The check in and check out process was seamless. The location were great and the place was exceptionally clean. Kiddos really enjoyed the old school arcade games and we enjoyed a few games of pool. Close to restaurants and served as a good base for day trips from Anchorage. Would definitely stay again!

A cozy stay

A great stay that is super close to a main road meaning we could get to most places we wanted to go within 30mins or less. The inclusion of bathroom items that may have been forgotten was a wonderful touch. It was a wonderful place and I'm glad we stayed here.

Lovely place to stay!!

Beautiful place in a wonderful, safe, neighborhood. Looks even better than the pictures. Huge space, yet still nice and cozy. Humongous bathroom with extra-large shower. Delightful hosts who were very responsive while still giving us all the privacy we wanted. Definitely would love to stay here again!!

About the host

Hosted by Yvette Belisle

Host profile image
We are life long Alaskans who enjoy our wonderful state. We like to keep active in the summer time with camping, fishing and outdoor events. We are down to earth, family oriented people. We enjoy spending time with our adult children and grandchild any chance we get.

Why they chose this property

We choose to purchase our home because it was unique to our families needs. We have 5 grown children and 4 grandchildren. Once we became empty nesters we didn't want to downsize because we cater to visiting family and friends. We enjoy the neighborhood and love the cul-da-sac that our home is in due to the low traffic and quiet area.

What makes this property unique

Our downstairs daylight basement was recently updated and allows for fresh accommodations. The spacious room and bathroom allow for our guest to stretch out and relax. Our guests enjoy an occasional game of pool and lounging and the sauna for extra relaxation.
