Great hotel, but skip the breakfast.
Pros:

Beautifully restored, comfortable bed, nice rooms.
Staff at check in and out were excellent.

Cons:

The breakfast was dismal, paper bowls and cups, very limited choices. The breakfast staff member clearly didn’t want to be there.
The hotel would get a higher rating if they chose not to do breakfast at all. This brought our rating down.

Sadly not what I was expecting from a boutique hotel.
Pros:

Unfortunately we had a train at 5:45am and could not partake in breakfast. It would have been nice if the hotel would have offered grab and go bags, but they did not.

Cons:

Even for Alaska, Air Conditioning would have been appreciated. A fan is not sufficient.

Look elsewhere for breakfast.

Whatever you do, don’t stay here
Pros:

Room was filthy. There was dust on everything like the hotel room had been vacant for months, but it was supposedly fully booked. The bed had clean sheets. The TV had no signal. Breakfast was comparable to a cheap motel. Avoid this place like the plague.

Not very impressive
Pros:

For Alaska's expensive pricing, this was not much of a deal. Tiny bathroom. Very noisy street outside. Lumpy bed. Breakfast was ok for cereal, but not much else. On the other hand, the lighting was very good; we had 2 luggage racks without having to ask; and desk clerk was very helpful.

Needs a Major refurbishing
Pros:

Definitely not what you would expect for $450 per night. In need of refurbishing. Noisy. Very hot with no AC. Staff was not welcoming. Plenty of better options. For $450 we got a solid view of a cinder block wall. Unbelievable.

Sehr schlechtes Frühstück
Pros:

Gute Lage Downtown Anchorage, großes Zimmer, bequeme Betten.

Cons:

Das Zimmer war insgesamt recht staubig, insbesondere die Möbel. Das Zimmer /die Betten wurden erst nach Aufforderung gemacht. Sehr dürftiges "Frühstück" auf Papptellern bzw. aus Pappbechern. Das ist bei einem Preis von 400 Euro pro Nacht überhaupt nicht akzeptabel!

Wouldn't stay again!
Pros:

The only positives at this hotel were the reception staff, who are amazing and the very comfortable bed & bathroom. Unfortunately both the rooms we stayed in were extremely stuffy with no air, the hotel has a very musty smell & the breakfast was awful, tasteless & rubbery. We had to disconnect the fridge in our room due to the amount of heat it was generating, definitely a fire risk!
