Staff was excellent. Yes, it's older but in a nostalgic way. It actually takes a key to open the door and don't forget to lock when you leave. They don't automatically lock when you shut the door. Room was warm (was -15 out) and nice hot shower with great water pressure.

I had low expectations but the check in staff was friendly, the room was clean, and we would gladly stay again! Great price and good location (we were in Kenai for a swim meet...I'm not sure how expensive these rooms are in the summer, but I'm sure that they aren't cheap!)

The customer service was absolutely amazing. There was a bit of miscommunication on the app, and booking needs. The assistance that we received from the lovely lady at the front desk, went above and beyond.

They only have one room available if you book through Hotels. Terrible, uncomfortable beds. Beds were listed as full size, they are single and very short. I slept better in the chair. The hotel was empty, they could have given us a different room. This place is for sale, no wonder. I will never stay there again.
