The Alaska house was just great. It is on a quiet block, the house was beautiful and my room was just great. The value was great. Mort was a friendly, kind and responsive host. I did not use it but the kitchen looked well appointed. The house seems to have quite a number of Air BNB rooms, each with their own lock, some with shared baths. Mine had its own bath and it seemed like only one other person was there in the house for one night during my two nights and I never saw anyone else which worked great for me. I never saw the one person I think was there. I do not know what it would have been like if all the rooms had been filled. It would probably be a fantastic house to book for a group of friends- and I am not sure if I would have liked it much had all the rooms been full with different parties. Also, I had a car and was able to park close to the house which worked well. The neighborhood is up and coming, but i am glad I did not need to walk far to park and that I could drive to shops/etc. I am not sure how comfortable I would have been walking around any distance late at night. Having said this, I would definitely return again and stay again- how could I not- I'm from Alaska :-)
