Rustic historic vibe of Fairbanks #2 conveniently located around attractions.
This is the second floor of a duplex with a large, fenced yard located in an older, quiet neighborhood in the center of town. Itâs near shopping centers, restaurants, local attractions and grocery stores. Biking and hiking paths are nearby.
Very basic. The owner was responsive and prompt to fix our concerns (dirty bedding). It worked for a quick night of rest but didn't offer more than that.
Property was clean and comfortable, convenient to downtown/airport. Could use some board games/books to provide something to do when hanging out. Host was quick to respond to any issues. Definitely would recommend this place.
The listing said it had a rustic, historic vibe. I wouldnât describe it as âhistoricâ in any way. Everything we needed was there except a clean fresh feeling.
Comfortable, good place to base from. We were able to view northern lights from porch. The neighborhood was quiet, right in old Fairbanks and walkable for groceries and restaurants. Jeff was very responsive to any inquiry.
Great communication with host, and Jeff was also accommodating enough to let us extend our time by a couple hours.
I did face issues with the WiFi, however - I'd planned on working from there but the wifi was pretty poor. Bit of a pain point, but everything else was absolutely lovely.
Apartment was very clean and easy to locate. Check in and check out were great. Kitchen could use a few more utensils to cook with and a few more pots and pans.
Not a complaint, just an FYI for the owner, one of the backs on the bar stools is beginning to break.
It was a good vrbo, the price was great, and it was pretty clean and we slept comfortably. the couch was super comfy and it was close to walmart which was nice. The kitchen couldâve been better stocked but oh well
getting into my unit was eventful. i reviewed check-in instructions (see pic). no lock at the front door so we went around the back where i found a lock box to the left of the door, as advertised. the code didnât work for me so i asked my son to give it a shot and it still didnât work. shortly afterwards a man looked down from the deck above and noticed we were having trouble so he gave us a different code to access the unit. i assumed this was either the property owner or manager. once we were in i submitted a comment to through the app stating that the combo didnât work but the guy above us gave us the ânewâ code. after a period of time i got a call stating there was a mixup and i was supposed to be in the upstairs unit, which was clearly occupied. i told him we were good since its just for one night. later he called me back and said the upstairs folks were in the wrong unit and that a cleaning person let them in, and he said the folks upstairs agreed to swap units with us so it would âsave me money on cleaning since iâll only need to clean one unit not twoâ i thought to myself, are you kidding me? they have clearly been in their unit longer than we have so iâm sure theyâve already made themselves comfortable, used the toilet and probably the bed for at least a nap. This is clearly his problem not mine. ALSO, as you can see from the check-in instructions and pics; nothing indicating a 2nd floor unit, instructions should mention this. he passed the blame to an app update
Very convenient location. We had a great trip. There was no phone number provided so there was no direct way to communicate with the owner/manager except through the app/email.
