    Is there such a thing as the quintessential "Dive Bar?" If so, Koots fits the bill. A dark maze…read moreof fun-filled rooms, a sassy bartendress and a brooding crowd. (Chef's kiss )

    This place was very interesting. I spent 4 years of my life in Anchorage before visiting koots. I…read morefeel like Koots is somewhat of an institution to the town so I was definitely curious about the bar. I'm glad I went to check it out, but outside of going there for a show I don't see myself going back. Seriously gave me college bar/frat house basement party vibes. Considering I went to a Big 10 school in the middle of Illinois I'm very well versed in that type of establishment/vibe. It's not exactly the kind of place I want to go to as a 30 something year old. I went there for a burlesque show. Shout out to Pulse Dance Company! The show was amazing and tons of fun. The bar itself I don't think has had any updates since like maybe 1995, and that estimate is probably generous. This bar was probably the place to be when it first opened, but now it's kind of just tired and sad. It could probably be better if they took the time & money to renovate it, but they don't really have an incentive since people go there regardless. Koot's kind of just exists, but considering Anchorage is the biggest metropolitan area Alaska has it's a confusing type of establishment to find here. If you're looking to party though it seems to be the spot!

    Update - 2nd visit was fun, and the majority of the facility was clean, but there was a roach in…read morethe pool. Gross. I was hesitant due to past reviews saying this place was super dirty, with cockroaches etc, but someone told me they closed down for awhile to address those issues so we decided to give it a try. We went for Toddler Time and were pleasantly surprised by the facility. It's not the most updated place you've ever seen but I definitely wouldn't call it dirty. Some of the flooring in the changing rooms etc is a bit worn but everything is pretty clean in general. It's an indoor water park so you have to expect a little humidity, iron buildup, and worn flooring in the areas that constantly get wet. The water was super clean and clear, and our kids had a blast. My only minor complaints would be that the only showers are community type showers so don't expect to go in and get a full shower unless you're cool with everyone seeing you, and there aren't really floaty toys readilylike are advertised on the website (but the nice lady at the front desk let us borrow some). Also the lifeguard on duty was meandering around staring at his phone most of the time, and that could be better. All in all 7/10 would go again.

    I don't understand how people keep coming back to this place. It's the most disgusting place on…read moreearth. I understand it's the only fun water park place. If you are a good parent, you won't take your child to this environment which is very unsanitary and full of cockroaches. Imagine just eating food here; it's more dangerous than eating food around here, especially how they prepare it. I'm just surprised that food inspectors or pest control hasn't closed this place down yet. It should have been closed a long time ago. If people have complained about it already, they should take this action more seriously for children and families.

    Shockwave Trampoline Park - Crashing other kids dinner and birthday parties

    Let's face it, Alaska is very limited when it comes to kid-friendly fun places. Shockwave…read moreTrampoline Park is 1 out of the handful. Shockwave is located on the Eastside of town. It sits at the end of a mostly abandoned strip mall. It is noticeably more spacious than its competitors. Like all places that require a waiver, try to get that taken care of online, before you're there physically. It's not uncommon to experience an incompetent employee working the pay desk, and holding everyone up. Give yourself plenty of time and exercise patience...it's for the kids. There are lots of tables available for you to sit and spread out. I appreciate the long tabletop with stools, that sits directly in front of the trampoline area, so you can further helicopter parent. There are rock walls, arcade games, and other random items for the children to enjoy, in addition to, the trampolines. They sell dip-n-dots ice cream as well as pizza and other snacks. Naturally, Shockwave is starting to show its age in some areas. What's important to me, is that everything was safe and looked clean, including the bathrooms. My kids always have a blast and tire themselves out here. Till' next time Shockwave Trampoline Park!
