NO POOL = FRAUD
Cons:

Your listing says pool. I promised this to a 6 yr old, 4 yr old & 2 yr old. When asked about the location at check-in, they said they have asked you to remove pool from the listing, but "you create too much revenue to remove it." That is fraud!

OK, not worth the price
Pros:

Large room, with a separate lounge area and kettle, fridge, etc. Short walk into downtown.

Cons:

The room felt tired and rundown, and was not to the standard of cleanliness I would expect. It was not worth the price we paid (over £1k for several nights). We have also tried to contact the hotel since to get documentation for a claim we need to make and they have not been forthcoming with the documentation we have requested.

3 star - paper plates and plastic cutlery
Pros:

The location was good and the bed was comfortable

Cons:

There was no kettle in the room to make a cup of tea. There was a coffee machine, but the cups were paper. We had complimentary breakfast, served on paper plates and plastic cutlery! And paper cups. Shocking.

Very mediocre
Pros:

Pizza delivery

Cons:

The sofa bed was unusable (poor mattress,poking springs,weak legs and no bedding) so I paid for a double room but ended up with only one usable bed.

Excellent property with excellent service.
Pros:

Excellent property. By far the best hotel during our entire 18 day Alaska trip. Room was excellent & so was the breakfast. Conveniently located in down town so everything was pretty walkable. We even watched the 4th of July parade from our hotel room. Would highly recommend this hotel. 5 Stars ....

Cons:

Nothing that i can think of.
