First impressions of the outside of building were very worrying as it was run down and dirty looking. The manager was very friendly and helpful. He’s doing a good job looking after tourist . He booked us a taxi for check out day as our phone wasn’t working after we had brought credit. He made suggestions of places to visit and to eat. We went downtown for tea and taxi driver on return to hotel gave really bad review of hotel, so much were we a little scared. He told us to get out as hard to get taxis to this hotel as area was not desirable. We stayed in our room once we got home and didn’t leave. The cleaning was not thorough as old soap left In shower. My White Sox’s black after walking on floors inside.. it looks good online Fresh paint no air conditioning, had fan, fridge and microwave I would not stay here again. Is very budget hotel if money issue then stay here otherwise look elsewhere.

Disgusting!!!

If I could give this hotel a rating of "minus 10", I would. It was the dirtiest/smelliest place I have ever stayed. The bed was made with 1 fitted sheet and 1 top sheet only. There were only 2 towels in the bathroom....no bathmat and no hand towels or face towels. If we could have left, we would have but there was nowhere else to go. Listing says that there is a city view but what you are looking out to is a body shop for cars. Also the cost of this hotel is way over priced. We stayed at a different hotel, which was a lot nicer, better area of town and the room was great. Lots of towels, bed was made properly and there was even a breakfast included...and all at a cheaper price. Do yourself a favour and don't stay here.

Picked it from an Orbitz list. Flew up from SF. Used twice in a week to stay between Alaska Railroad trips from Anchorage to Fairbanks & back. Austeer but clean. I was on the second floor both stays. Bring your own Walgreens hangers. Water took 2-3 minutes to get from the boiler to my room, but I always had hot water to shower in. Desk sold cokes, etc. The Korean manager went out of his way to call me cabs (my cell phone did not work). He responded to all of the property's age-related deficiencies promptly. Inexpensive restaurants are nearby. Downtown museums, etc. are within walking distance. No real fear of homeless hassles or room or car break-ins. Decent place for short term stay. Parking on site. Room had basic television. Lots of FM stations. I was there in August.

I stayed at the Travel Inn while attending a conference in Alaska. It was one of the only options available at an affordable price (lodging in Anchorage is super expensive). The stay was not great, but it had about the minimum you would expect for the cheapest option around. I had read a lot of comments online from a while ago mentioning bed bugs and such and was therefore a little stressed and very cautious, but those issues seem to have been fixed: I didn’t see any bugs in the room and checked the mattress under the sheets, which had a thick sealed plastic mattress protector around it and no trace of bugs. I will say, the bed was big and I found it surprisingly very comfortable. The area seemed a little sketchy but nothing too crazy. My main issue with the room was the cleanliness level: it had been cleaned, but very superficially (mystery stains in the bathroom, unknown scraps of food in the fridge, sticky remote control, very dusty corners, etc.) so I had to clean a few things myself. The front desk person was super nice, welcoming and helpful. He really tried his best and I truly appreciated that. It seems the hotel is understaffed and might have difficult clients. I think these are most likely the main issues. If you’re on a budget in Anchorage and stay at the Travel Inn, you won’t have the best experience in the world but you’ll be fine.

This did not feel like a safe building or area. Room was bare bones but not particularly clean, and the deadbolt had been removed from the interior of the door. Would not have felt safe without my husband also there, and even so we almost changed hotels last second.

This place was terrible. Dirty we had two towels no washcloths no hand towels. And not a lot of anything else. We had a TV through the cracks your cable that went to nowhere so we got about four channels. Luckily I plugged my computer in with an HDMI cable and was able to watch some good shows off my computer. I would highly recommend you not stay here.
