The floor didn't feel like it was cleaned very well. The front desk agent told me that they were no longer going to be accepting reservations for individuals from Anchorage, Palmer, and Wasilla. I thought that was not great.

It is conveniently close to the airport and bus route. This is Anchorage so the possibility of encountering substances can be found everywhere. I felt safe, and my only nonissue was the heavy snoring next door. It was a non issue, as I know to bring ear protection. 😁. The Netflix option was a great addition.
