O K But not worth the money

We were there when our plans changed and the other hotel (Clarion Inn)this Native American Group owns in Anchorage couldn't get us inearly. The noise in the park noted in another review was a 24 hour walk for Cancer research, and the hotel tried to quiet the college & younger age crowd. The rooms are small and cramped compared to similar hotels in the lower 48, A tour bus (one of many) blocked all the handicap spots andrefused to move when we arrived. Ms Crow the Front Office Manager did get him to move, but there is the last I saw of management. There is no accessible two bed unit, so the wheelchair made the small rooms feel more cramped. The A/C unit is in the bedroom, so the bathroom area and sitting room get little cool air, making it hard to sleep. The spa was closed much of our visit, and the pool overrun by loud unaccompanied kids two of three days we were in town. Breakfast had a fair selection of fruit, breads, and cereal. But other than waffles you made, the hot food was often luke warm when eaten. We were fortunate to befriend the blond Jessica (there were 2), a Front Desk agent who went out of her way to assists us when she could. The business center internet had Tour Host on it many times I tried to use it. Their maintainance man is very nice too. The ocean, shopping, and many food options are within walking distance. We'd stay there again, but it would not be our first choice.

Not a bad hotel building wise. Service leaves a lot to be desired. Rude, Rude, Rude
Rooms are overpriced for what you get. Breakfast is cold.
Across the street froma park that had noise all night long, could not sleep.
Stay somewhere else.

Give this hotel a miss. Location is not bad. Hotel looks good, that is where it ends.
Service was terrible. Maids make noise at 7AM until late.
Food at breakfast left a lot to be desired.
Management opps forgot they don't have any.
Stay somewhere else

This hotel is very overrated and overpriced. The rooms are Ok and the service just barely OK but it is way too much for what you get. It is located within a 1/2 mile of downtown and thetre is a nice restaurant next door. I would not stay there again for the same money I can be right downtown and not have to walk in the rain. The front desk was also very rude whae you ask them the simplest questionthey act if they are doing you a service by tell you something.
Unhappy!

We were part of a group of 16 seniors. The hotel Tour Director had to ask our coordinator how many rooms we had reserved. I think he should have known this when we checked in. Remote control for TV in setting room did not work and refrigerator gave off a high-pitched noise when it "kicked in." Maintenance man said original remote control had been stolen, replacement was the wrong kind. No action on refrigerator problem--finally unplugged it so we could sleep.
