Larry and Alan are great hosts with a great sense of humor and are very helpful in pointing out both tourist places but also local restaurants and other places locals like to go. They turned us on to a couple good restaurants and more. There's also a grocery store across the street if you want snacks or other goodies. I'd recommend this 100% - priced fairly, clean, comfortable beds, TVs, WiFi and more.

My "room" was really a small apartment of 3 rooms: bedroom, living room, and small bathroom. All had nice furnishings that fit the time period of the house. Breakfast consisted of hard-boiled eggs, a variety of meats and cheeses, yogurt, and granola. It was filling and a good healthy start to a day of walking. There is a grocery store on the next block, and a bakery two blocks away. The B&B is on I & 13th, which is walkable to just about anything downtown. And you pass by Star the Reindeer on the way!

Breakfast time is a great time to talk with other guests and with Rita about our experiences and recommendations. Bears and moose frequent the yard. Rita shared with us pictures of a bear that came on her deck just a few days before we arrived. Very close to Flat Top Mountain, which, if you are able, is a fantastic hike. I thought it was better than the hikes at Denali.

The host is friendly, extremely accommodating and just genuinely a great person. The location is beautiful...it's tucked away on a quiet street near a state park with breathtaking views of the mountains yet conveniently close enough to the city. It's clean and very comfortable. If you can, stay in their master suite. It far exceeds even five star hotels with its fireplace, jacuzzi tub, personal sauna, balcony overlooking the living room and double headed shower.

The only thing to note is that you can hear foot traffic from the common room in the lower floor rooms (Illiamna and St. Elias), which was only an issue in the morning around breakfast time. The common deck was a perfect place to start or end the day with views of the water. Breakfast was equally delicious with a spread of pastries, fruit, sausage, hash browns, etc. It's about a 10-15min walk to downtown Anchorage as well as the coastal trail. Steve and Monica are fantastic hosts! Would definitely stay here again when in town.

House of Jade works with NOLS with transport and providing the best accomadations to get your ready for your expedition. There are rooms set for NOLS students and rooms set for couples. The house remains quiet through out the day and night. Even when people are walking around, I could not hear them from my room. In the morning fresh coffee is brewed and tingles your senses. Great way to get you moving! Breakfast is always something speciel. Homemade granola with yogurt. Fresh fruit. Juice. Teas. The cooked prepared breakfast was so yummy! The last morning I stayed they had reindeer sausage and flap jacks. I could not put my fork and knife down, it was so good! Even during the day they have cookies out for the guests. On the side of the house outside there's a little fireplace. The back deck is nice to sit in the morning with your first cup of coffee. The folks are just as friendly!!

During our stay the innkeepers were Greg and Linda, they are a super friendly couple and the breakfasts they cooked were absolutely delicious!! The morning starts off with yogurt, fresh fruit and homemade granola. Then next comes something hot and delicious from the kitchen. We got extremely spoiled and the rest of our vacation was spent comparing our meals to the ones at House of Jade. (Nothing came close by the way.) Greg and Linda made us feel so welcome and comfortable. Also ,one of the nights Zach( the owner) was there and he heated up our leftover pizza in the oven, and while we waited he gave us some great tips for our next stop in Fairbanks.

We walked those routes many times during our stay. It was also very conveniently located within walking distance of the Alaska Rail station. It is not located near any grocery stores, however, so we did a big Costco shop shortly after our arrival in Anchorage. Our room was on the top floor and we had a great view through the living room window. The bedroom has plenty of closet space as well as a comfortable queen sized bed and ceiling fan. The bathroom is small with no bathtub, but has an awesome rain shower. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Because we stayed as long as we did, we did not receive the bagged breakfast offered to other guests. We were asked what we would like and were given fruit, bread, eggs, yogurt, butter, bacon, bananas, apples, oranges and granola. Basically, everything we asked for, we received. It was great being able to make our own breakfasts! Compared to the price of hotels, many of which are located only a block or two away from the Arctic Fox, this place is a good deal. As well, as the privacy of your room, you have access to a large outdoor deck with tables and chairs as well as a grassy area with a table and chairs and there is a common room and a laundry room. A cab to/from the airport cost us just $25. Now, as for the negatives. Anchorage has a homeless problem. Many homeless are attracted to a soup kitchen located within a block of the Arctic Fox. They did not harass us or approach us at any time, but they are there in numbers and it wasn't all that pleasant having to walk by them as often as we did. Most nights we didn't hear them either, but there were a couple of nights where they kept us awake with their shouting. This b&b is also located near the train tracks and during the day, especially if you have your windows open, the trains can be noisy. We were not bothered at night, however, because the bedroom is on the side opposite to where the tracks are located.

We didn't mind walking around but if you want to be close to restaurants/shops this may not be the place for you. It doesn't look like much on the outside but once you're inside, it's pretty. There are no elevators so if you have bags they will help you carry them up. The common area is on the 2nd floor and so was our room. Some rooms share bathrooms. We didn't want to share so we requested a room with your own bathroom. When we checked in, Carol took good care of us, she was our host during our stay. She was a sweetheart, every morning she made breakfast and it was good. Yes, your stay comes with free breakfast. If you can't stay for breakfast just let your host know the day before and they will prepare you a bag and have it ready for you in the morning. House keeping was great! Our room was spotless! The whole place was spotless! The only complaint I have is that the walls are thin. It's an old house, I understand. We are from the east coast so we were in bed by 8pm. When other people came back from dinner we could hear them loud and clear, the walking and closing doors, etc. This was our first time at a Bed & Breakfast so we didn't know what to expect. While we enjoyed our stay we have discovered that we actually preferred hotels over B&B's. If you like B&B's and don't mind walking to the center of town or driving, then I would say give this place a try.
