Categories

Cleanliness
5
Multiple reports of unserviced/dirty rooms, bad odors, hair in the bathroom and guests needing to buy or request sheets; cleanliness is the most common negative in the reviews.
Service
9
Daytime/front-desk staff described as very nice, helpful (held luggage, recommended restaurants, good check-in/out), though there was at least one serious late-night staffing/taxi responsiveness issue that lowered but did not negate generally strong service.
Location
9
Multiple positives: dog-friendly, convenient distance to train and civic center for some guests and close to the hospital in an emergency; one guest noted it felt far from city center/airport, but overall location is a strength.
Room Quality
7
Mixed: rooms can be spacious and presentable (good towels, toiletries), but issues reported with smells, dated appearance, TV/remote quirks, awkward refrigerator placement and at least one unmade/uncleaned room experience.
Amenities
9
Good amenity set for the property: laundry facilities, hairdryer, iron/ironing board, quality towels, coffee in-room and downstairs, and toiletries; some apartment/kitchen units lacked cookware or utensil information which is a drawback.
Value for Money
6
Several guests felt fees (notably a $50/night pet fee) and the price did not match the experience when cleaning or condition issues occurred; perceived value is below average.
Food and Beverage
9
Limited but positive: in-room coffee/tea pads and coffee provided downstairs plus well-presented shower soaps; no broader F&B offerings discussed but the available items were appreciated.
Overall Experience
10
Mixed overall: many operational positives (helpful daytime staff, useful amenities, convenient location) offset by serious cleanliness and value issues for some guests. Averaging guest sentiments leads to a strong overall rating driven by consistent service and amenities despite cleanliness complaints.

Pros:

Location- dog friendly

Cons:

$50 per night is excessive for a pet free when you stay multiple nights. The room is not cleaned daily so the “daily “ pet fee is unfair.

It could have been better but it was clean.
Pros:

The room was clean in appearance and smell. There was a hairdryer, iron and ironing board. They did have excellent presentation of their bathroom shower soaps. The bathroom towels were of good quality. They also had a small old timey coffee pot with coffee and tea pads. They do provide coffee downstairs close to the front desk. I was able to easily take my small dog out for a walk in the morning and evening.

Cons:

There was no formal notice/paper in the kitchen area that utensils were available at the front desk.
The bathroom doesn’t have a vent fan. TP was like what we have at airports - one ply.
The TV remote sensors are odd.
The refrigerator was poorly placed. One side was against the wall and the door opened away from the wall toward your body. The table was right in front of the refrigerator and had to be moved away from the fridge in order to use it due to the way the fridge door opened.

Filthy, unserviced room with zero customer support or accountability.
Pros:

Nothing.

Cons:

We arrived at the hotel at 11:30pm. The room was completely unserviced, featuring a dirty bathroom and an unmade bed. The front desk was closed, so security gave us loose sheets that didn't even fit the bed. Management and customer support refused to issue a proper refund for an entirely unacceptable stay.

NEVER AGAIN
Pros:

We felt for the amount we were paying the room would be more pleasant. The staff was very nice, but we did have to wait for someone to come to front desk. The room looked clean, but smelled nasty. Maybe dated hotel....We had little choice...very last minute...Emergency situation --needed it close to hospital. We would never stay here again.

Cons:

Room smelled and I had to go out and buy sheets to cover bed and pillows...I was not about to sleep in that bed.
Very disappointed with hotel.

Pros:

Lo staff molto gentile

Cons:

Scelto perché all’inizio i piani erano altri , avremmo dovuto avere la macchina , per cui l’hotel è molto lontano dal centro o dall’aeroporto o da qualsiasi utilità.
Camera molto molto grande , ma zero comfort
C’è la cucina ma non ci sono pentole , io avevo preso un appartamento con cucina per poter cucinare una pasta a mia figlia di 1 anno , quindi la cucina si rivela inutile così
Non molto pulito , capelli ovunque e un po’ di cattivo odore nel bagno

Cons:

I had to check out at 3:30 a.m. because I needed to catch an early morning flight, and I asked the hotel staff to call a taxi for me.
However, because it was so early in the morning, the taxi took quite a while to arrive. I asked the hotel staff several times to contact the taxi company and urge them to come, but they were slow to respond and did not seem to take the situation seriously. In the end, I had to wait for more than an hour before the taxi finally arrived.
I was honestly very disappointed with the way this staff member handled the situation.
This was especially disappointing because the front desk staff during the daytime had been very friendly, professional, and helpful. Unfortunately, this poor experience left a very bad impression on me on my last day in Anchorage.
I also asked the same staff member to send me a receipt, but I still haven't received it. I would appreciate it if you could send it to me as soon as possible.

I don't think I will be staying at this hotel again.

Good hotel for short stays
Pros:

The room was a good size and nice and clean.

Cons:

Relatively good value in a city where rooms are a ridiculous price per night.
