Service was really slow and we were woken up everday bt housekeeping when asked not to, called the front desk multiple times for neighbors to be quiet and for housekeeping not to be so loud when i paid for 4 nights of a hotel to be bothered everyday
5.0 / 10.0
I really liked the hotel. Proximity to the airport and mid town Anchorage, authentic Alaska feel, friendly staff and nice restaurant.
I’d stay here again.
3.0 / 10.0
Room was spacious but they charge a $20 resort fee. I was only there for a brief overnight and it isn’t a resort.
4.0 / 10.0
Check in was fast and easy. Beds and bedding was clean and fresh. The hotel as a whole could use a deep clean (vents, walls, floorboards) and updating.
5.0 / 10.0
Clean property with a nice layout. The food and drink was very good. All the Staff were excellent. Not to far from good eats and Breweries. Service to and from the airport was prompt and convenient (we left at 4am).

The location is great—easy to get around Anchorage and nearby sites. From the listing, I thought it was a bit more upscale than it is. But it was comfortable, quiet and a good place. The staff were friendly and professional.

Beware that all doors except lobby are locked at night. No in or out. Made me uncomfortable thinking what if there’s a fire?

Nice hotel and restaurant staff.
3.0 / 10.0
The bar and breakfast staff were excellent and the convenience of the shuttle is what made me book this property. However, the floors were so filthy I had to lay towels down to walk. The hallways could use a shampoo and the smell in the building was reminiscent of mold.
3.0 / 10.0
No wifi in my room. 1029. Could not connect
Front desk attendant tried multiple times but nothing.
In today's world you have to have wifi.
It's necessary and expected
Please check your server or provider

The front desk agent was very friendly and listened to the area of the hotel we wanted to be in.
2.0 / 10.0
When you pay $642 a night that is incredibly expensive to stay at a hotel which is no means luxurious in any way.

This is a nice property 5 mins from ANC airport. Rooms are spacious with dining on premise. Staff is very friendly and helpful.

Close to airport with complimentary shuttle 24/7.
On float plane lake so nice entertainment. Walking path near hotel. Staff is friendly and room was comfortable. It was really good for the price too. Anchorage is expensive in the summer-this was a nice find! I’d definitely stay again.

Staff less than friendly, and our check in experience was horrible.

Excellent hotel
8.0 / 10.0
The hotel sits in front of a lake so there is a nice view but only from the dining room. The rooms do not have any good view. The room was spacious and had everything we needed.
6.0 / 10.0
Needs a refresh-
Carpets are old and dirty looking in halls - wall have lots of cardboard patches.
Lobby is nice
WiFi good
Breakfast was good but a little pricey.
Rooms are somewhat dated but were clean
No views of lake from most rooms.
Good parking and shuttle to and from airport.
Good sports bar area and outside dining.

We got to our hotel at 11:30PM (yes at night!) and the front desk told me my room wasn’t ready yet; we’d have to wait 30 min for a room to be cleaned. Totally unacceptable. Check in starts at 3pm! I went back up to the desk and asked if I can have a reduced rate due to this inconvenience. Then a different front desk person, Maria, got me a different room right away. Why wouldn’t that have been done from the start, if my specific room wasn’t ready? It was late at night. We just wanted to get to bed ASAP after a long day of travel!

3.0 / 10.0
Wasn’t anything like the pictures sadly. I got stuck in a room with an inside view and it was dirty and run down to look out the window.
Room was very clean so housekeeping do an excellent job but very tired and needs modernising overhaul, it is like staying in a 70s hotel but to be fair some people like that feel so it just wasn’t to my taste
Bedding cheap and poor quality so not a good nights sleep
Staff very pleasant
Great shuttle service with very friendly and helpful staff! That’s a really great feature and one that’s appreciated
Wouldn’t stay there again

Very friendly and helpful staff. Enjoyed watching the planes. Food was good at both restaurants
2.0 / 10.0
Rundown outside, dirty stained carpet throughout. Ac in rooms are window shakers and very noisy. Not in the best neighborhood. Paid avg 400.00 night because they made advertising on a lake and no rooms have lake view!. I would warn anyone to avoid staying here.
4.0 / 10.0
Understaffed, from the front desk to the restaurant.
10.0 / 10.0
Amazing view of lake and getting to watch the planes take off and land. Great sitting areas in lobby and great food in restaurant
5.0 / 10.0
Close to the airport, with shuttle pick up, beautiful location on lake hood. Enjoyed watching the float planes land and take off..Restaurant was okay, not as good as I hoped…
4.0 / 10.0
The hotel is incredibly convenient for the airport and I like the fact that you can watch floatplanes take off and land from the dining areas. I found the maintenance condition of the hotel to be generally poor in many areas though.
2.0 / 10.0
My room was dirty. It was years of grime build up. I opened the door to my room and there were liquid drips on the wall like coffee or other things around the light switch so walls and things aren’t getting wiped down at all. I had to switch rooms. The carpets were really dirty in the halls. The cleaning lady said they only have so much time per room but I’ve stayed in much less expensive hotels that were way cleaner. The only really clean place is the lobby. Very worn down rooms. Looked like someone took birdshot to the blackout curtains they were so old. Had trouble checking in and checking out. The computers kept “glitching “ and it took her 15 minutes and a computer switch to print a receipt. I would never stay here again.
