We liked this place so much that we stayed here again on our return to Anchorage (from Fairbanks). The rooms were comfortable and well lit. They provide a basic breakfast that is left in the frig for you (can contain yogurt, fruit, granola bar, eggs, etc.). They also provide free coffee, tea and oatmeal around the clock. If you stay in a suite, then you also get place settings and silverware. I believe all rooms have a microwave and frig. Parking is plentiful and free.

A great location, close to Denali Park but far enough from the crowds. The daily breakfast was a great help and the facilities and staff were excellent. This one is a no brainer if staying near Denali. Dining at the golf course, Rosie's cafe and the 49th state Brewery were also fantastic and very convenient.
