Nice stay at the Inn
Great stay! Room was very nice with great lighting. Bed and pillows were comfortable. Our room had fridge/freezer. Our room shared a bathroom with one other room we did know that when booking as each room was we described. Breakfast was included, bagels string cheese, oatmeal, fruit, bars and several beverage choices. I would stay here again.

I would have given this property 5 stars overall if it wasn’t for those horrible electronic door locks that they use. When coming to your room after a long day of driving it shouldn’t take me 5 tries to get this thing to work. I finally got in my room, then next day after I went out and returned I couldn’t get it to work again….beyond frustrating..found out they had entered my phone number wrong and that’s why it would not let me in. Can’t we just have an old fashioned key? The room itself is modern, extremely clean and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. I would stay here again.

Our room was very small. There was no room for suitcases to be put except in front of the door. The bed was comfortable. We needed a code to get into the building and was given an old code that didn’t work. Breakfast was yogurt, bagels and oatmeal. We wouldn’t stay again.

Convenient with shuttle service to and from rail depot to the ski inn. Great selection of grab and go items for breakfast. Clean rooms, nicely appointed. Only problem was shuttle drop on side, entered from side where there is a double door with key pad. The key code we were given didn’t work because the front door was on around the building. Once we figured that out, it was all good.

The Ski Inn location in Girdwood is located to many of the food options, including one of our favorites, Chair 5 (and the Double Musky is relatively close as well). The actual premises parking lot was limited however. But the facility is nice and many amenities.

Enjoyed our stay
Ski Inn is a small inn right in the heart of Girdwood. Most rooms have a private bath. Our room shared a bath with one other room which was fine. We were provided plenty of our own towels, etc. The shared spaces were nice with sofas and chairs. We had a nice visit in that common area with others staying there. Some snacks and breakfast items were provided; however, there were no cups available for tea or coffee. I reached out to the number provided and was told housekeeping would be made aware, but because there is no in-house housekeeping, we still did not have cups the following morning. We did find a great bakery close by where we were able to purchase our coffee. We enjoyed our stay and would return again if ever in the area.

Favorite stay of our trip to AK!
We stayed at Ski Inn during a 2 week trip to Alaska where we were at a different location almost every night of our trip, and this was our favorite location. We super lucked out even getting it since we stayed during Forest Fair, which we didn't know about when we booked, and that was a lot of fun. Fair warning though, there was music from a nearby bar until well past midnight. Not a problem for us, though, and I don't think that happens all of the time. Other guests did not seem bothered either, and it was really cool to see how the whole town embraced Forest Fair and we loved visiting both the fair and the trails in the area. The hosts were amazing, very accommodating and friendly, and I wish we could've stayed a little longer we had such a good time overall. Everything was clean and comfortable. Very easy to get into the building and room with the emailed instructions. And we very much appreciated the good breakfast options (bagels & cream cheese, oranges, and Chobani were favorites, plus the cappuccino machine). There is a free shuttle (donations accepted) to get around town to trails, the lift, etc. Lots of other dining options and shops as needed. Definitely recommend! If we are ever in the area again, I would 100% stay here.

Good value
Clean room, but no tv. I guess I missed that when booking. It would be nice to have a tv in the main gathering room. Nice touch with the couches and breakfast items. It would have been nice to have some utensils and coffee cups. There was no one around to ask. Overall, it was a good value for the area and a clean, comfortable bed.

This was a nice and clean little property with a good self-serve breakfast. Our room was a bit tight for us though, we are tall but not overweight, however, the bedroom did not have enough space for us as well as our things. Housekeeping was great - we left behind our electric toothbrushes, and she set it aside for us until we returned over a week later. The restaurant around the corner, Chair 5, was one of the best places we had dinner on our 12-day trip.
