Cheap room, but decent. End room with twin beds had all we needed. But, I think it was so cheap because the outside stairs are SO LOUD with people going up and down banging noise in our room each time. Get a room away from/other side from the lounge/bar. Very noisy for awhile.

What a cute motel; very friendly. We’ve stayed at hotels all around Alaska over the past few weeks; this place is affordable and super cute! Room was cozy, very clean and had all the amenities we needed, staff was very friendly. There is a restaurant, we opted to eat at the bar next door, they share a kitchen.

The property was close to restaurants and stuff which was great and the parking was great. The only thing that I saw was, it’s a little outdated, but it’s where is clean and most of the time the maids were there promptly to give you anything that you needed.

Staff was great. But the hotel wasn't completely pet friendly. The jet bath suite which is what we booked does not allow pets. So we chose not to stay. The front desk staff was great and we were not charged.

Nice and knowledgable staff people were helpful and courteous. But the lack of the ADVERTISED shuttle in the listing was a very big BUMMER for me.
