Shacked up here for a night after arriving on a post-midnight flight from Portland. The only nice part of the hotel was the lobby, which you had to buzz the concierge just to get in the hotel after hours. The "non-smoking" room was anything but. There were easy-to-trip-over power cords on the floor, and some even *painted over* on the walls. The air conditioner didn't work.

All in all, not a pleasant experience. The room might be cheap, but you definitely get what you pay for.

My family and I stayed here prior to going on a cruise. This hotel is very outdated. The room was just big enough to hold the two very worn double beds. Although a "non-smoking" room, people can smoke just outside your door. The lobby is supposed to be smoke free too, but they regularly came into to light their cigarettes. There is no food service as well, only coffee. There is a Country Kitchen accross the street, but it is nothing special. Avoid this hotel at all cost. I normally stay at hotels in the class of a Hampton Inn or Fairfield Inn. This hotel make them seem like the Ritz. By far the worst hotel I've ever had the misfortune of using.

Also hesitant with the negative reviews posted here. Arrived in the afternoon, easy check in. Room was clean though there were some signs of wear (carpet a bit worn). I was in the part of the hotel with outdoor corridors though it was fine. Some rooms have indoor corridors.

Self-serve laundry on-site with reasonable price. Free high-speed wireless internet as well as a computer terminal in lobby.

Free parking on-site. Good Mexican restaurant behind the hotel, you can get 10% off Country Kitchen across the street with coupon given out by the hotel's front desk.

Overall, I would stay there again if the price was comparable.

I'd read some not-so-good reviews so I was relieved to find this hotel perfectly OK. The room was comfortable, clean and well-furnished - above expectations. Reception was efficient and there was a shuttle to the train station. I did not have the feeling of being at a budget hotel so was pleased I'd ended up deciding to stay there. Only thing not ideal was a longish walk to a convenience store, not the hotel's fault - Anchorage is a very sprawling, inconvenient sort of town.
