Custom furnishings in walnut and maple are located throughout the hotel, while a courtyard garden with wooly mammoth sculptures has a barbecue grill and a fish and game freezer for guest use. Complimentary amenities include extended Continental breakfast, use of an adjacent fitness facility, and shuttle service around the Anchorage area. Wireless Internet access is available throughout the property, but guests must provide their own network cards.

| I have stayed in almost every hotel in Achorage and found this one to be the best. The bed is very comfortable, the whole room is very welcoming and tastefully decorated. This will be the only place I stay in Anchorage from now on.

| While not in the downtown area, this is the best hotel in the Anchorage Bowl for a very good stay and at reasonalbe prices. I have stayed there a couple times and look forward to my next visit. The room was marvelous and meticulously clean. Thanks for the nice visit.

| Couldn't get into a hotel with a name I recognized so I had to settle for one I never heard of. The reviews looked good and the price was right. The hotel was tricky to find but once there, it was real nice, seemed new, very clean and nicely decorated. There was nice little lounge in the lobby, it was near a ton of restaurants and stores and right off the main highway in and out of Anchorage. It would be my first choice if I go back.

| After staying a few nights at another Alaskan hotel, this place was a God Send. Great rooms, friendly front desk, and very clean. The only thing that doesn't make this a super number 1. No on site restuarant, no in room pay per view movies. Additionally, we had several tour bus loads of Asian tourists, who over ran the small breakfast area in the mornings, and it was nearly impossible to get breakfast. A larger area would have really helped out the rest of us!

| The hotel is located waay outside Anchorage, close to a shopping mall. The view to the outside is one of a huge parking lot. Not nice. The hotel interior is very nice, and the rooms very upscale, but: * We found food from the previous guest in the mini-fridge * There was no soap/shampoo/etc in the room. * Pillows were quite big and they didn't have some lower ones to offer. * Hotel is far from everyting. Spend a little more and stay in a nice hotel in downtown Anchorage.
