寶石湖民宿(Jewel Lake Bed and Breakfast)

Wonderful place in a great location. Especially enjoyed the very comfortable bed, over sized towels, and the very thoughtful snacks and food that were provided. So many “Alaska touches” with the furnishings. What a treat to get up in the morning and enjoy a choice of wonderful coffees, especially on an eight below zero morning!

Communications with staff were great, the self serving breakfast options were great, instructions were simple and easy to follow, but the cleanliness overall was less than optimal (bathroom had hair all over the floors and in the shower on the floor and walls, bath towels/washcloths were dingy and I felt dirtier using them). Ended up cancelling a later planned stay here just because of the cleanliness.

Everything about this property, and our stay was amazing, with the one exception that the entrance was not plowed. Had we brought our rear wheel vehicle we would not have made it into the property to be able to stay, luckily, we had our four-wheel-drive vehicle, but even then it was a challenge. Very unsafe unplowed entrance from the street.

Just as pictured-Aurora Room. There is a step up to the toilet and tub. A slightly wider step for the stool would make it feel safer. Breakfast was more than ample, vey good. We stayed Dec 26-31 and a boot tray or mat would have been good given that we entered through the bathroom.

Don't recommend the downstairs rooms as we were woken up at 6am by someone in loud boots walking back and forth in the kitchen for two hours until it was time for us to get to the airport. It's a very decent place to stay but there's a reason only the downstairs kitchen is for guests to use. I wish there was a sign upstairs about it. Beds are a little squeaky but comfortable. I will definitely be back but wow I am frustrated we couldn't sleep due to another guest. Please make more obvious signage so people can sleep!

Got in late and was very comfortable, the bed was great. Slept well. It was a bit hot in the room and did not know where the A/C was so hit the ceiling fan. They provide food in the kitchen for breakfast which was great, self serve. The only issue was that they did not fill the shower liquids and there was nobody around so that was not great, but otherwise it was a good experience

This place is a gem! From the comfortable and clean rooms, great location and cozy lodge atmosphere, everything was amazing. I forgot to add a fabulous breakfast with kitchen amenities that can’t be beat. Look no further for a great stay in Anchorage!

This is a very cute place to stay. The room was comfortable with plenty of outlets. The closet was adequate. Even though it was located next to a street, it was very quiet inside. There was a nice living room to sit in. Breakfast was an extensive fix what you want. There were hard boiled eggs in the fridge along with yogurt, both cow and plant based milks. Real butter is a plus. :-) There were also eggs you could fry. There was oatmeal and cold cereal. Granola bars and breakfast bars were also available. There is both a Keurig and a drip coffee maker. I appreciated the sandwich condiments in the upstairs kitchen. A bonus is the downstairs kitchen one can use.It has a big refrigerator and stove. It is well stocked with all kinds of pans. A microwave is there. The only drawback I found was the hand soap in our bathroom and the downstairs kitchen. There were bubbles in the container but it felt more like water. It did make bubbles on my hands. I find Softsoap refill thick so I always dilute mine but I feel that this was diluted too much. I used the shower gel instead to wash my hands. A funny note, the bed in our room make a squeaking sound that sounded like a duck!

Loved the place over all. Near airport & very quiet. My husband & I need a king size bed & those are hard to come by in smaller inns in Alaska . We are trying to support local businesses. I booked a room with a double & twin in the basement. The mattresses were so uncomfortable. They both squeaked & the head board wasn't even attached to the twin. Made for a very long night. Good selection of " make your own breakfast."
