NO AC

Beware of Nooo AC and room 809 is haunted!!!! We kept on hearing either little feet running back and forth or bigger steps at 1am and then again at 5am. Check in was horrible with Maribeth. She gave us a queen bed even though there were Kings available. Our friends, 2 couples, checked in after us and she accused them of using Expedia even though they had Hotels.com printout with King bed on it. Other than Maribeth’s attitude, all other staff was lovely. Beware

We stayed here 2 times on our last vacation, when flying into and out of Anchorage during our weeklong Alaska visit. The location and staff were great. Breakfast was also good, although the pancake machine was down during our second stay. The hotel is very old, historic, has a slight “old odor” on the higher levels. The rooms are a bit small for 2 double bed rooms by modern standards, although that is what the hotel is known for. The staff was friendly to loan us bear spray for our visit, free of charge! Parking costs $20 per night extra

Quaint historic stay with an actual key for our room. Ok breakfast, but enough to start our day. The waffle maker was out of order. The shower curtain was musty and some wall stains. Pricey for just a place to sleep, but this area is high everywhere. I like the history.

Conveniently located in downtown, very close to train station and lots of restaurants and touristy places. Hotel is well decorated but old - no AC/heating (temperature control) in room (had a standing fan). One woman in front desk was friendly and helpful while the other woman was snappy and rude.

No air conditioning, alley smelled like a dumpster which in turn made our room smell like a dumpster. Curtains did not darken the room. When we checked in we were told parking was 3 or 4 blocks away and it would cost $20! This is not a safe part of town and not a terrible solution.

Cannot recommend this hotel. Parking is an issue - after paying high prices for an average at best room, parking is not provided, and good luck finding a parking site on the street. Rooms are noisy - creaky floors above our room and could hear music and people talking. The staff are not the friendly Alaskans we encountered elsewhere.
