Hotel was quiet and comfortable, with a nice breakfast assortment included. In room coffee maker was not clean. It was very frustrating to get through to call for the free shuttle service. They don't answer the phone. They need more help.

The stay was ok. Shower had very low pressure but was warm. Beds need to be replaced. They are sloping on both sides, had to sleep at an angle. Electrical outlets were all not working. Room keys kept losing it's ability to open doors. Breakfast was decent. Worker was slow to replenish items that were out. Coffee was good. I also liked that breakfast started at 5 am for early flights. Not sure if I would stay again as my room for 3 was over $300. A room for 2 was about $170.

The lady at check in was very pleasant but there was a shortage of staff to run the entire operation. The hotel in near the airport which makes it convenient but the noise from the planes can be an issue.

It was near airport and cheaper than other hotels. Our room was very dated with bathroom with no hooks or shelves to place personal items. Shower floor , as well as curtain was mildewed. The breakfast was rather basic with few choices

Long wait for a comfortable room
Our stay was a comfortable start to our Alaska Adventure. We waited an hour for our airport shuttle. Staff acted as though the wait was our fault. I don't know how they could truthfully say that as they didn't show up at the designated spot they told us.

From the start the staff was busy talking to one another when i was the only customer waiting. Before we got to the room we were warned its unsafe lock the deadbolt people have keys to the rooms that dont work here. The room was pore dirty outdated over priced. We decided to sleep ontop the bedding and skip a shower.

Late night checkin, 2 people working the front desk and it still took nearly 30 mins to check in. Hotel is old, not updated and not worth $300/night. Shuttle driver was fantastic!

Called hotel three times prior to arrival, specifically about shuttle service, as we were arriving around midnight. Told each call shuttle would be there. Called for pickup and was told the driver didn't show for work. Got a taxi, arrived at hotel to see a typed notice that shuttle not available day we arrived, and other dates in future. Clerk said notice was posted about a week prior. No "sorry we didn't call you" or offer to reimburse for taxi cost. Totally unprofessional and unacceptable. Carpet was old and dirty.

Property was very convenient to strolls around Lake Hood and to the airport. Breakfast had adequate offerings. Our floor hadn't been vacuumed, bathtub was rusted and caulk was cracked and moldy, sheets were very thin, mattresses uncomfortable.
