I love the staff! Very accommodating, friendly and helful. I stay inside the main building, the rooms are spacious, and clean. This is the only hotel I stay at, when I'm paying (not business), because the price is very reasonably.

They need complimentary coffee in the lobby for early risers. There is no coffee in the lobby. The restaurant had a cold breakfast buffett. No cook the entire time; the buffet was the only option. Had to drive to downtown Anchorage for breakfast.
