Very old motel in a very questionable part of town. Rooms showed their age, however were clean and comfortable overall. Kinda weird that the first thing you see and encounter as soon as you open the front door is the bathroom sink with very limited counterspace. The shuttle driver was friendly and accomodating. The Chinese restaurant right out front served very tasty food.

We were very happy with the courtesy, professionalism and helpful demeanor of the staff. The bed in our room was really comfortable, and the bedroom and bathroom were both a good size. The room was very clean and warm - if we had been staying more than one night, I would have checked to make sure I understood how to regulate the temperature. The breakfast really exceeded our expectations and we were grateful to have it, though the space in this area is limited and so we were lucky that another couple didn't mind sharing a table with us. I had reserved this hotel thinking it was near the main Anchorage airport and realized later that it is near the small craft one. However, the staff were able to shuttle us to the main airport on time, no problem, and we appreciated that this service is complimentary.

No restaurant. No shuttle.

Website description and staff said airport shuttle available.when I called desk I was told shuttle wouldn’t start until May! Disappointed because that’s why I chose the hotel. Also website said restaurant on site but it was closed. Property very old and needs update. Kitchenette had no pots or dishes or cutlery. No coffee or tea set up. No cup that could be used in microwave. I wouldn’t stay there again. Disappointed with the inaccuracy. Difficult to plan without honest information

The place itself was rather run down. Seemed to be in the process of being refurbished. My room was nicely done but most of the place was being used to house renters down on their luck. Not a problem but I would bet their rooms were not so nice. My room had no heat. I was eventually given a space heater but really, it is winter. Some staff were very nice and others preferred to ignor requests while rolling their eyes.
