What guests say
7.5 / 10 · Good on Booking.com, from 172 guest reviews
ShaligoHomes offers a clean, quiet, and affordable base with responsive staff and reasonable access to Anchorage, appealing primarily to budget travellers unconcerned with polish. However, the property suffers from visible neglect—unmowed grounds, dim lighting, and missing amenities—alongside inconsistent check-in procedures and poor WiFi support, limiting its appeal beyond short stays.
