The room was not ready for us. There was no toilet paper, toiletries, no bedding for the pull-out couch, and the pull-out couch was dirty. The bedding on the bed was old and torn and there was a used tooth brush still in the bathroom. It was very hard to get ahold of anyone to address these issues. No one ever answered the phone even after multiple attempts. Just an overall disappointing stay.

My family and I were looking for extended-stay lodging from Feb 1st - April 1st 2021. We were moving to Alaska from the lower 48, and needed a place to live while in the process of purchasing a house. I had contacted Karen Harris, the owner of Alaska Garden Gate BnB, in December 2020 and secured our reservation for an extended stay.
Karen informed me in late January 2021 that it was possible the property would sell during our reservation dates, but that she was doing everything she could to ensure current guests could stay as long as possible, and that future reservations were honored. We checked into the Cottonwood Cottage on Feb. 1st. 2021 with no problems.
During our stay, we were given notice that both property appraisals and inspections were taking place and were asked for our patience and understanding. I had email Karen multiple times to clarify our reservation and status of the property's ownership. Karen again responded that the contract and sale had not been finalized and she would let me know.
On the morning of February 10th, Karen called to informed me that we needed to vacate the property within 24 hrs due to the sale of the property. Karen stated that the new owners were not going to continue with a BnB business, and that they required all long-term tenants and short terms guests to leave immediately.
We complied with the abrupt request and thankfully found alternative lodging the same day. However, we were subsequently charged extra nights through Feb 13th.
While a refund was provided for those extra nights; based on Alaska Garden Gate BnB's February 19th Facebook post, they are actively taking reservations through March 16th.
While Alaska Garden Gate BnB will no longer be an active business come March 16th, I would not recommend any individual to do current or future business with an owner and company who treats their guests with such blatant disrespect and deceit.

Very nice. Rooms were nice and comfortable. Furniture decent. Heating a little uneven as vent was directly below. This caused the bedrooms be be a little chilly. We would stay there again. Best place I've stayed at in Wasilla .
