Post Cruise pit stop

A very average and ordinary hotel. Nothing fancy, but a typical hotel room at a decent price for Anchorage. Close to most things downtown including restaurants, shops, the anchorage museaum, etc. The area the hotel is located is run down and not the best part of town, but that explains the cheaper price. This hotel will suffice for a quick stay in anchorage but i would not recommend staying here if you plan on spending more then a few days in anchorage.

awful

While downtown Anchorage is not the most desirable place to be, the area in which the Days Inn is located is awful. Not only were there constantly people screaming, but every time someone would move, go up and down steps, or close a door, it could be heard. The parking lot in the middle of the hotel provides much opportunity for echoing. The staff the first day were extremely rude, and didn't offer much help. As for parking when the middle lot is full, you have to walk through back alley's which are not the friendliest places to be when alone. I thought I had booked a suite, however there was nothing special about the room. I found a pest trap directly behind the bed (disgusting!) and the room smelled like mold and perfume. Needless to say my experience was awful, and I would never recommend this hotel to anyone.

Good business stay

Good location, if it's where you need to be - just east of downtown and the theater district. Staff is cheerful and accommodating. Rooms are room-like, somewhat larger than average for a budget hotel, clean, usual amenities. The window opens! Fresh-air fans, rejoice! Non-smoking room did NOT have any smoke odors. That's a first, too. (Are my expectations too low? My expectations of smokers are even lower.) Five-star pampering, it ain't, but I do not travel for the purpose of staying in a hotel room. This one is comfortable, clean, pleasant, easy to get in and out of to do what I came to do, and a decent price. What more can one ask?
