The Walkabout Town B & B is in a great location close to downtown & next to a green belt bicycle path that stretches throughout the city & for miles along the coast. Our accommodations were bright, clean, quiet, affordable & the breakfasts were excellent. The owners were quite knowledgeable & very helpful. And to top it off, they supplied... More

Like so many American B&Bs that reflect the eccentricities of the lady owner. Shoes and alcohol banned indoors. Coped without a beer for one night but trying to load up the car in the dark having to put on lace up shoes before crossing the threshold each time with heavy cases particularly annoying. Tiny, cramped room, with walk through the... More

if we ever need to overnight in Anchorage again. The B & B is located not too far from town on a very quiet street near a park. The Piano Room, where we stayed was very large and quite comfortable. That we had to walk through the "common room" to get to the WC and shower posed no problem at... More

We stayed at the Anchorage Walkabout B&B for three nights at the end of May/beginning of June. It is a large, private house converted to B&B use, located in a residential neighborhood. Some guests stay in an adjoining house. A cab from the airport cost about $12 for two. Guests enter by climbing a flight of stairs on the right... More

This B&B is 1 mile from the downtown area of Anchorage. It is VERY affordable for Anchorage and has GREAT breakfast and comfortable enough rooms. They also have bikes that they rent out for free to their guests!The housing is not glamorous at all, but VERY clean. Bottom line, if you are looking for comfortable and affordable place to stay,...

So kind of you to write such a positive review... I do want to make one correction...we are 10 blocks from downtown which is a 15 minute walk, for most folks. We have two buses that pass by our home every half hour to and from downtown. More

Bathroom set up a little odd, the bedroom has it's lockable door then you go out of the room to the bathroom which ic next... More

Big thanks to Terry, Sandy, and Linda for helping me feel at home so easily! I really felt like I was staying at a friends house. I loved being able to walk, bike (they provide bikes and helmets) or bus to the downtown area and the greenbelt just a block away. I even saw a moose right by the road... More

Our family of four (Dad, Mom and two teenage sons) stayed at the Anchorage Walkabout Town in July 2010. We, and another family of two, traveled to Anchorage for a 4 day, 3 night Boy Scout canoeing/fishing trip. We selected this B&B since they were able to accomodate both families and all of our gear. While everyone in our group... More

Last summer, on June, we spent 3 warm nights at your beautiful place. Two nights before our kayaking trip, and one after it. I loved your place, your breakfast, your hospitality, the warm family. I felt at home and sure will come back to stay with you in our next trip. Avigail Dror Israel More

My wife and I really enjoyed our time at the Walkabout Town B&B and our time in Anchorage. The accommodations were everything we needed and the morning breakfasts we awesome. We also got the chance to roll around Anchorage on the great mountain bikes they provide. Best of all, Terry was very kind enough to drive us to the train... More
