Westmark Anchorage Hotel

Shower water would be scalding hot at intervals

They will charge you for parking!

Being downtown was convenient. I regret getting an upgrade from the 3rd floor to the 12th because I ended up with an uncomfortable bed that sagged so much it felt indented.

Having to pay for parking sucked. And my bed was so indented that I could not get comfortable. The pillows are too thick too.

Location is great for shopping and downtown restaurants.

Bath was in need of updating. Very limited parking lot. First floor check-in area was cramped, cluttered and needed updating.

Not bad, but not as good as expected

The king bed was comfy, and the balcony was neat (though I'd get more use from it in the summer months...thought for next time).

I found the amenities more lacking than I'd expected. I was pretty sure I saw cable TV listed, but the remote control's guide feature didn't work, and there weren't many channels. There was no mini-fridge; I thought those were pretty much standard in any hotel above "motor lodge" class. The toiletries (shampoo, body wash, etc) came out of dispensers). There were only a few cheap plastic cups in the room...so cheap that two of them were cracked and unusable before I even got them out of the plastic wrapper. I also expected parking to be included; instead, it was an extra 12 bucks. That's not awful, but for $100 a night you should be able to toss in parking.

Location

Staff was rude and unprofessional, not to us but witnessed towards another guest. Hotel is old, outdated and needs a major remodel.
