A convenient and reasonably comfortable, budget friendly stay with a pleasant staff.
Pros:

The convenient location close to the airport was the primary draw, as we were coming back to Anchorage at the end of our vacation and had a very early flight out the next morning. The staff were pleasant and housekeeping quickly attended to a concern we had. Place was generally quiet, beds were comfortable enough for a night's sleep. There was fresh water available in the lobby to refill our bottles. We could not stay for breakfast but the dining room looked nice enough if nothing fancy. Parking free and sufficient, with luggage carts available in the lobby, so checkout and loading out was a breeze.

Cons:

I had booked the room not having read too many reviews. but don't expect luxury or even the general spotlessness of a typical chain place. The neighborhood, close to the airport as noted, looks a bit rough with a fair number or characters hanging out on the streets, which might put some people off. There were a few such characters hanging around the parking lot and lobby, and we read that the establishment doubles as a long term hotel for some folks. There was little noise and no one bothered us other than one chatty older gentleman.
The interior lobby and corridors seemed neglected and a bit dirty, and the room showed its age. There was a pervasive smell of overpowering cleaning products, and the bathroom floor was covered in some kind of sticky film. I mentioned this to the front desk staff immediately, and as mentioned above housecleaning arrived fairly promptly to re-mop that floor. The room was also uncomfortably warm when we arrived, but there is an air conditioner by the window to cool things down. The television doesn't seem to receive HD channels, that wasn't an issue for us.

Pros:

Appeared clean and the location was close to the airport. The registration staff were very helpful.

Cons:

Outdated furniture. Curtain linings were full of cracks that let in daylight. The art in the room was dark, faded.
The cleaning staff were friendly but it was clear they were anxiously waiting for guests to check out even though it was not yet near check out time.

Pros:

Room was fantastic, didnt hear anybody else and even was able to see the vehicle from the room clearly. Bad part is... it is on spenard... not the greatest of neighborhoods, but nobody messed with us or our stuff.

Cons:

Just the neighborhood. Not one to walk around after dark.

Grungy property in a sketchy area. Stay away.
Pros:

It’s close to the airport with included airport transportation.

Cons:

This is a grungy property in a sketchy area. The A/C was broken in our room. We had to insist they move us after 5 hours where it was consistently 84°. They wanted to attempt fixing it, but gave it little effort, commenting about the room “When it’s cold it’s cold. When it’s hot it’s hot. Shrug.”
5 minutes after the included breakfast opened, there was virtually nothing there. 1 juice. 3 biscuits, about a half cup of gravy. We left and ate elsewhere.
The property appears to have been built in, and not updated since the 1970s. Large bleach spills on hallway carpets, curtains look like rags.
As we were checking in, a housekeeper loudly announced to the front desk person “There’s poop
stains everywhere!”
The area is quite sketchy. Homeless abound. We were happy it was light outside, and we walked fast.
I didn’t take photos because EW.
Honestly, the thing I liked most was leaving.
