In the same building as the shopping center. It was just a quick walk to one of the many restaurants and shops. If you plan on cooking you will want to shop for groceries in a larger city like Fairbanks or Anchorage first because the markets are very limited with stock. The staff were friendly and attentive. The rooms have thin walls but otherwise spacious and comfortable. Great views of Denali National Park.

Absolutely exceeded expectations, more like a luxury Airbnb! We rented a suite and were blown away by how clean and spacious it was. The living room was huge, the full kitchen looked brand new, and the bedrooms had multiple queen beds, perfect for families or groups. The entire place felt more like a luxury Airbnb, surrounded by stunning mountain views. Honestly, calling it a “motel” doesn’t do it justice at all. The name is misleading and undersells the experience. Highly recommend a name change. It deserves better!

Property was clean. Room was pretty big. Fans were good. Good blackout curtains. Television channels were not as advertised. Very few channels and the connection was bad. The mattresses and pillows were very thin.

Pretty good for the price (compared to other stays in the area). Shuttle driver was great! The room was clean, but kind of quirky (towel bar was super high, nowhere to set anything in the shower). Beds were alright. Only major complaint would be that the pillows were probably the flattest I’ve ever slept on in my life. And there were only two pillows per bed, so couldn’t just double-up.

Staff were lovely. Only incident was that our cabin was left unlocked all day after housekeeping had been in…. Not ideal but I brought it to the office staff’s attention and they apologised. Easy access to the park with the shuttle across the street.

We were going to arrive after the office would close so they gave us the code to the door lock so we could get in without meeting them. It’s located close enough to the park and the area has a limited selection of shopping and dining options. They offer more value than their competition if you are there just to sleep.

As expected

It is expected and there are not many options. The room is spacious but need updates. The receptionist is extremely helpful and is willing to stay late to help us to check in. Thank you!
