The property was close to restaurants and stuff which was great and the parking was great. The only thing that I saw was, it’s a little outdated, but it’s where is clean and most of the time the maids were there promptly to give you anything that you needed.

Great location. Great staff. Great value.

This was our first time staying here. Everything was outstanding. Allie at the front desk was very helpful. Everything in the room was perfect. There is an excellent restaurant in the building. We will definitely stay here again.

This is an older hotel but appears to be in good shape. Personally, I liked the older feel this place had. It was very clean. The staff was great. The shower in my room wasn’t working great, so they moved me to another without hesitation. There is a restaurant and bar attached. The prices are a little high, but the portions were good, and I would expect high prices in a tourist town, especially one in Alaska.
