I'm sure there are more upscale options available, but when your selections are limited, this property worked out just fine. Great central location in town and easy to explore from here. Staff, especially Nate, was wonderful! Would definitely stay here again. Price was definitely reasonable considering the going rate for most places in Alaska. Would stay again!
Staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast cook was excellent.

Good stay abd great food!
This was the second time we have stayed here. While nothing fancy, it sure served the purpose for a great fishing trip. The guy who cooks breakfast to order (choice of eggs, omelet, biscuits and gravy ,waffles, and sausage) does a great job and a nice guy. In addition he sings along to his country playlist playing in the kitchen. Breakfast and a show! He is probably the main reason we'll keep going back!
The bathroom was dirty, but the water was hot. The floor was also dirty but the beds were clean. The rooms were quiet. The breakfast was made to order and was delicious. The rooms weren’t cleaned every day but they did refresh the towels. They do not have a restaurant as advertised.

We’ve stayed at this hotel multiple times, and the only thing that has changed (other than the price) seems to be attention to detail when cleaning. Our room wasn’t dirty, but it wasn’t the cleanliness that I’ve experienced in the past.
