Bare Bones
This place is bare bones. We enjoyed the walkability to town but that’s it. The bed is extremely soft, temperature is hard to control in the unit. No hairdryer, or ironing board. Missing a lot of things (including dinner plates) that would make for a better stay/kitchen. Pretty neighborhood, nice 15min (1mile) walk to town which we enjoyed.

Lovely and convenient stay in Juneau
The house was exactly as described and very comfortable. The owner was very quick to respond to my questions and we had no problems. The location is lovely and just a short walk into historic Juneau. I highly recommend this house!

Functional with some oddities
This is a property management company using VRBO to list their rental, so expect paperwork after you book and lots of automated emails. They have a local contact but it's not like anyone is really personally invested in the property on site. The bed was comfy and the space was functionally clean. There's some really easily fixable stuff that's not quite right. Most.importanly, both of the smoke detectors were out of their ceiling mounts when we arrived. One was sitting by the bed and the other by the tv. We tried to use the oven but when we turned it to 425 it started smoking from residue on the inside and we had to open all the windows. We messaged the management, who replied quickly, but they told us to reach out to the local contact. That local contact replied that they'd stop by, but when we got back to the apartment that night, the oven was still dirty and the smoke detectors still down. So that's a red flag to us. There was also stuff strewn about in the bedroom closet - notably some Christmas wrapping paper (in July). And there's a bottle of body wash in the shower that has written on it in sharpie "Beware. It's broken." How hard is it to replace a broken bottle? The toilet paper holder is coming out of the wall. Add to this that the welcome and check out emails are full of rules written in all caps and ask you to take out trash and wash and put away all dishes before you go, and you get the sense that you're less welcome and more a source of capital.

Good location
You get what you pay for at this condo in Juneau! This is a very no frills spot, close to the hiking trails and the downtown scene. There was no toilet paper when we arrived, also no wash cloths. It is a lot cheaper than the local hotels though, so you should take those savings and go buy toilet paper at Fred Meyer before checking in.
