Convenient option with nice staff and helpful airport shuttle!
Pros:

The included breakfast is great, and that combined with the free airport shuttle and the proximity to the grocery store makes this place a better deal than most other Fairbanks options at this price point. If they have rooms available to give free upgrades, they do, which is really wonderful.

Cons:

The beds are a bit soft for my taste and the shower water doesn't get real hot.

Great place!
Pros:

Great place to stay, wife and I ended up staying an extra night. Older building but all of the amenities and fixtures are modern and the rooms are clean and comfortable. Never heard our neighbors and the staff were super friendly and helpful. Great little free breakfast in the lobby and close to the airport. Will be staying again!👍

Would go back again!
Pros:

Close to airport and town. Independently owned, which made it more personal. “Breakfast” was typical packaged stuff, but available til 11am. They accommodated us getting in early.

Cons:

We had 2 stays. 1st stay: First room, couldn’t lock the door so we had to move.
2nd stay, construction in adjoining room started at 8am, and then on and off until checkout.
No coffee machines, but I think they had coffee in lobby all day. No real dresser drawers. The owner and staff were attentive and good humored.
