Many appreciate the friendly and helpful shuttle drivers who go above and beyond. Guests also mention the spacious and attractive rooms. However, the hotel has some drawbacks. Some find the rooms small, and the lack of on-site dining options is a recurring issue.

Late arrival at the airport was no problem for the free shuttle pick up. 2:30 am check in was no problem either. Breakfast was expensive but most everything is in Alaska.

We were not part of a tour group, so it seemed pretty quiet. We were told by a front desk clerk most of the occupants were from tour groups, explaining an empty parking lot. It was also mentioned that if you were not part of a tour group the rates are much higher. This was disappointing to hear.

The person that picked us up from the airport at midnight was happy informative and went way beyond taking care of us. The room was large and pretty , best we've had so far. My only complaint would be no food, but actually that has been an ongoing problem. I love this place, I'd stay again.

This was one of the smallest rooms I have ever stayed in. I travel with a lot of stuff and this small room really cramped my style.
