My husband and I enjoyed the nearby shopping and restaurants. We did feel like "outsiders" from the cruise crowd. We didn't care for the parking which required a cart to transport our luggage to the room. Check in was confusing.

The hotel was amazing! Beautiful lobby/fireplace area. Everything is spread out and easy to find. Loved our room, rustic, but modern. Restaurant and bar great. Wished we could have stayed longer.

Alaska is a beautiful place!

Was good overall. Breakfast on site was mediocre at best and over priced (king Salmon restaurant). Hair in shower, trash, debris etc on bathroom floor, toilet dirty. At least convenient to park and that was a terrific visit! Nice location, friendly staff, stores on site, and most importantly was a safe place to stay.

Nothing was notes at time of reservation that this hotel is multiple buildings that are not handicap accessible. When questioned at check in they did help us get to room. When I called to get the help at check out the girl was rude and refused. Only after calling back to talk to manager were we helped.

This is not location for car users, mainly focus on cruise trip member. Doorman is a most important person in check in !!! You can not stay in the front of hotel entrance for a couple second to take out your staff from a car or make a check in !!! Everything is not for private tourist - if you do have another choice do not book this hotel!!!

Overall property was nice with many dining & shopping options. Room was clean but cramped with only one chair & tiny bathroom. All 6 of our rooms were not ready at 3:00 pm checkin. Also there was confusion about transferring our bags to train depot and front counter staff were not very pleasant or helpful in clarifying the confusion.

Great property, easy to get to on the road from Fairbanks. The restaurants have good and varied choices, the shops are creative. Our stay was good enough to extend a day. That being said, the rooms(building K) are not sound proofed and you do hear you neighbor and everyone walking by).

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
The property was very busy. They have limited parking for guests and we had to park on the street. Our guest room had black mold and mildew in the bathroom which produced a strong smell and affected our allergies. I would have tried to change rooms but we were staying near our family. I did alert management to this problem. Hopefully they take care of it for the future. Breakfast options were limited/or very expensive.
