The room was great. I came with myself, my boyfriend, and two dogs and the lady that checked us in, i’m not sure her name but it was 10/28 around 11pm she put us on the first floor next to the pet relief area which was so appreciated. the hotel itself was really cool, if we had more time i would’ve loved to check everything out. they have lots to do for free which is awesome. we did check out the aurora viewing room and it was kind of hard to see out of it due to the led lights they have on but it was still a really cool room. the experience was great.

Pike, Waterfront is a great choice for a place to stay on Fairbanks. From the lobby entrance and throughout the Hillel there is great original Alaskan artwork to view. Our room was very clean and most things in the room seemed new. Breakfasts were great. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I would definitely go back on our next trip to Fairbanks!
