Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    This is a fascinating building with a rich history. When there was an issue with the bathroom in our first room we were quickly offered an alternative. Staff were helpful. Great location.

    This was a bucket list trip for me to Anchorage. And I was on a tight budget. I liked having a kitchen. I could walk to the Visitor's Center to join tours. Staff were friendly, sincere, and helpful.

    About 4 blocks from edge of downtown shopping. Wide open so felt safe walking in light. Popcorn in lobby. Nice bed and shower. Looks older, nervous when walked up to it but turned out ok. No bad smell at all, like some old places. Newer fixtures in room but could use paint. If you are “particular” will findproblems, but for me good cheaper 1 night stay.

    Cheap, clean, self-checkin/checkout (simple!). It's not really hostel, more like B&B.. but I appreciate clean linen, towel, and well-maintained bath/restroom.
