Pros: One stay before dropping off the rental car. Lovely modern hotel. Very friendly staff. nice to have free water,coffee and snacks in the foyer. Breakfast was quick and easy and nice to have that included. The rooms were spacious, had a nice bright bathroom and excellent wifi. Parking was easy and free and only a short drive to the airport and also there are lots of supermarkets and restaurants close by. Our kids got a free shuttle to downtown as they stayed a little longer so that was nice for the hotel to offer that as free service as well as a free shuttle to the airport. Everything was above expectation and would definitely recommend this a fantastic place to stay.

In room coffeemakers are always a bonus with me, but the Bistro to Go was excellent. The best part was the front desk employee named Kelly. We actually stayed at the hotel twice during our visit and she was there both times. She is an amazing ambassador for the hotel, extremely friendly and kind. She told me "my problems are her problems" which as someone who also works in customer service, I like to hear. Fortunately, there were no problems. This hotel is first rate and should we find ourselves in the Anchorage area again, we would definitely stay here.

Cons: At the request of the Inn I sent a Fax with my credit card info and copy of my drivers license to let them know my friend Bob Rihel would arrive apprx. eight hours before I did. This was to let Bob into the room before my late arrival. The front desk personnel could not find the Fax OR the note (they found later) to let Bob into the room. Bob had to wait more than eight hours for me to arrive before he could get into the room. I suggested they comp the room but that was not done. I came back the following weekend and they did comp dinner for Bob and myself. BUT I did not feel that was sufficient.

Pros: The waitresses at the breakfast restaurant were very friendly and accommodating, except for the male waiter we had on Sunday morning, who was not accommodating, telling us that orange juice isn't on the breakfast voucher and we'd have to pay for it. The shuttle is very accommodating and runs on the half hour. Since there is no more room about what I didn't like, I'll add it here. There is no pool and the sauna was padlocked and obviously didn't work. The carpets in our room were filthy dirty and the light in the bathroom could cause someone a seizure the way it turns on blinking like mad. The sliding door to the bathroom was also terrible and didn't close all the way, offering little privacy.

The carpets in our room were filthy dirty and the light in the bathroom could cause someone a seizure the way it turns on blinking like mad. The sliding door to the bathroom was also terrible and didn't close all the way, offering little privacy.
Cons: You do NOT get what you pay for at the Lakefront. Overrated and overpriced. I asked for a quiet room (in capital letters when I booked it), and a view. Instead, we got a room on the 2nd floor, which is just up a small flight of stairs from the main lobby, which was usually very loud and busy, especially the night there was a fashion show in the restaurant. Our view was of the back of the restaurant with 2 dumpsters and barrels of something and the slamming of the dumpster kept my son up most of the nights. The first night I spoke to the girl at the front desk who said she could move us further back so we'd have a "residential view" with a partial view of the mountains, but no lakefront view. We weren't able to move because of our schedule the following days. She also gave us 6 breakfast vouchers for 3 people for 4 mornings. When I asked for more, she said, "How many do you want?" I told her to "do the math?" and she reluctantly gave us 3 more. I set the fan in the room to "cool" and down to 67 degrees. We woke up the first night and it was 87 degrees in the room, so the wall thermostat that I set did not work. Thankfully the one in the window did. On the third day, I asked for the manager to speak to him about our experience thus far and the assistant manager gleefully said, "I'm the assistant manager, how can I help you?" I told him about the view and the quiet room and how I had requested a lakefront view. He looked up my booking as if for the first time and said, "Well, we have 241 rooms and 14 have "partial" lakefront views. I asked what his point was. He had no answer and instead said, "We'll take your concerns very seriously." Nothing was done then or at checkout. They seem to book everyone on the 2nd floor as that is the loudest and busiest.

Cons: The hallways were kept too warm. The walls could be thin: we could hear the man in the next room coughing.

Pros: Shuttle service, restaurant availability, location, and parking were more than expected. Most of the staff seemed good and happy to be there.
Cons: Upon check in, one staff member was upset we used a “broker” to book our rooms and let us know if we would have booked directly with him, we would’ve had better service. He later berated my husband in front of everyone checking in, calling him a “hot head” because my husband was questioning why that staff member told us our booking had mistakes that we were liable for. We later confirmed with booking.com (who confirmed with the hotel) that there were no mistakes. The hotel manager called later and said we were not liable for anything. Strange that it was okay for the staff member to talk to a confused/trying-to-understand-the-problem customer like he did. So defensive and blamed us for not going directly through him. Also, pictures of the rooms on the website aren’t even close to matching what the rooms we stayed in looked like. Mildew stains and scratches all over the old white tile. Carpet stains. Old features.

5.0 Okay
Pros: The beds were comfortable and didnt include any bugs. The hotel was quiet forbeing right by a main road.
Cons: The cleaning could've been way better. Found several items under the beds, food was left in the fridge, hair still in the bathroom. Not enough towels in the room. We needed the pull out bed and it wasnt made for us, once we looked at the mattress we decides against using it. It was stained ALL OVER with what looked like old blood. Walls hadn't been cleaned in a long time.
4.2 Okay
Pros:
Cons: Not enough lights in the parking lot and we were not in the building attached to the lobby. We had to pull our luggage down Spenard Ave at 1:30AM past a couple seedy characters. Turned out we were not staying in the main hotel with the lobby attached. Walked over to the front door of what I believe they call the Annex building about half block over with an apartment building in between. Carried our luggage up three flights of steps. No security chains inside room. It turned out okay for one night once we got into the room. The room was pretty clean and bed was decent. Way, way, over priced for $170.00 a night though. Some guys were partying on the back side of it in a pickup truck so we didn't want to park back there and use their rear entrance late at night. Very dark back there too. We used the sidewalk on Spenard Ave. and passed a couple drunks on the sidewalk walking to the front door of the Annex building in the dark at 2AM just off plane. Street is not very well lit either in between their buildings. I have stayed in $60 cheap hotels that were just as good or better and probably safer. Staying in the part with the lobby attached may have been better, but more money too. Definitely the worst stay of our two week trip to Alaska for the money. Anchorage hotels in general seemed to be over priced it appears. Thought this place would be better for the price tag.
5.0 Okay
Pros: Breakfast was fine, location is close to airport.
Cons: We rented a moderate priced room. it is outside of the main building, it is old and in disrepair, the carpets were filthy with large spots by the door and cigarette burns by the vanity. May have been pet stains as it is advertised as pet friendly. Took about 45 min to check in as front desk staff was new and untrained and the supervisor was "in a meeting with the owner". My advice is to avoid the economy rooms and the moderate rooms, you will not be satisfied.

Cons: We did not stay at the puffin the room was not clean not to our standards and I would like to know about a refund. Thank you we might cross the street to the Holiday Express

Pros: The bed was comfortable and the shower good.
Cons: The ice machine nearby and outside in the corridor is very noisy. Couldn’t find a way to turn the heating down which made the room very stuffy. The toilet leaked so that the floor was very wet.

Pros: The hotel provides a free shuttle from the airport, which arrived in less than 10 minutes from calling. The staff is polite, attentive, professional and friendly. They went well beyond my expectations to make my stay pleasant. The hotel has an excellent Asian/American restaurant with good prices and delicious food. The hotel itself is quiet and peaceful. The rooms are spacious, clean, comfortable with excellent beds and additional conviences like clothing irons and hair dryers. An excellent value and experience overall.

Pros: It's been two years since I've stayed here, and the hotel has aged 10 years in that time. Very outdated, hair balls in the beds, dirt in all the corners. Very dim lighting in the room, zero decor. When we went to the dining room for continental breakfast, all they had was bread! Don't go, there are much better options at the same price point.

Love a super hot shower after a long day at work. The bed was really comfy I slept great when I was able to.
Cons: There seemed to be a lot of fighting among the staff. Everyone seemed unhappy and unfriendly. Also a lot of staff members hung around after they were no longer on shift so that was a bit confusing. I saw a baby behind the desk on multiple occasions. I don't dislike babies just found it to be very unprofessional. I smelled pot multiple times walking down the hallways. My room claimed to be non smoking but shelled a lot like stale cigarette smoke especially when the ac was on. They have a very late check in time in which my room still was not ready. After spending 20+ hours traveling I just wanted to sleep but had to wait 4 hours for a room.

Pros: I enjoyed the happy helpful staff. Everyone we spoke to or asked for assistance was excellent
Cons: The place is in need of furniture that you can use. My computer monitor is larger than the one we were suppose to watch 18+ ft away from the pillow. It felt like a truck stop motel instead of a place where my wife and friends were comfortable with their surroundings.
7.5 Good
Pros: Reasonable price deal for peak season. Fast food location next to hotel. Gas station on the corner before returning car rental at airport. Staff suggestion a few restaurants and they were amazing
Cons: bath tub fell like I was going to fall through to the first floor. I’m not a heavy guy either. Parking is not well received. You must go over a curb
3.4 Mediocre
Pros: Location of the hotel was the only positive.
Cons: Staff courtesy could have been better. The receptionist at the hotel were out of sync with each other. When I asked about the airport shuttle, the receptionist in the evening told me to call them 10 minutes prior for the shuttle but in the morning when I called them 10 min before we had to move on, the other receptionist in the morning told us very bluntly that the shuttle is at fixed time and there is no point calling them 10 min before.
Also there were no blankets in the room and it became really cold in the morning.
7.5 Good
Pros: This represents quite good value and the transfer to the airport worked well. The room was tidy and well-equipped although the room smelt a bit and the décor is a bit tired.
Cons: The hotel charges a $150 security deposit on top of the cost of the room which still shows on my credit card as a pending payment even 5 days after leaving the place. I doubt the hotel will activate this charge although it has caused me a lot of anxiety. The breakfast isn't available if you leave before about 6 am.

Pros: It was convenient to airport and the bed was good. Breakfast was good, they had a waffle maker and a variety of things to eat. We couldn't get our car until the next morning, so this was okay for one night.
Cons: The plumbing kept us awake. Anytime anyone flushed it literally rattled the walls. The walls are paper thin and so any noise from neighbor guest could be heard. The shuttle took awhile to come and the driver was not responsive or welcoming. Anchorage was suffering was forest fire smoke, so its hard to tell what the smell of the place would have been without that. If it hadn't had a shuttle from airport, it was very overpriced.

Pros: The staff was nice. They got us some wool blankets since the heat was turned off. The bathroom looked clean.
Cons: The room stunk. It was musty, the tv didn't work, there was no heat in the room, the carpeting was dirty looking, there was a lot of traffic noise. The planes sounded like they were flying right overhead and there was a train that went by every hour or so. I don't think there was a phone in the room either. You asked and I am letting you know.
5.4 Okay
Pros: The staff was really kind and available to offer us support as much as they could
Cons: It’s a 1*hotel, and nobody should pretend more than this.. but a restoration should help to improve their image because the building was very old, sanitary and basins not so clean... A better cleaning and a gradual restoration would be needed.

2.5 Mediocre
Pros: Close to airport with shuttle.
Cons: This place was pretty disgusting. The toilet overflowed and soaked the hallway carpet. The shared shower and bathroom facilities in general were filthy. Far more pubic hair than I cared to encounter. We found a half eaten box of Chips Ahoy and pop bottles under the bed. Pretty sure our neighbors were either buying or selling drugs. And the owner threatened a guest with physical violence when we were checking in. If I payed $30 to stay here I'd been ok with this, not $88.
