Rooms were nice and clean with no problems. The two women working front desk were extremely rude. We basically got lectured for 5 minutes straight about the laundry door code. We only had one towel in our room and they were extremely rude when we asked where the extra ones were. We asked what shelf they were on and she said “I’ll just come to your room to show” with a huge sigh. Not friendly staff what so ever!

Terrible stay ever , extra amount charge deducted from my card after a week of stay . No where it’s mentioned on their site that rooms are on second floor and they have no elevators and only stairs . Only after booking I was told that the room is on second floor . When I requested them to change within minutes they said 30% of the room charge would be charged for changing the room to first floor . I booked 2 queen beds suite with kitchen , highest amount of room charge possible in their hotel which sleeps 4 . We were 2 adults and 1 kid . And after a week of stay without my authorization or letting me know they deducted amount charge from my card for the child . Worst stay even with all the absurd policies , every hotel allows for a change within 24 hours they couldn’t even change in minutes and booking a suite with 2 queen beds they charged for the child even when we were only 3 for a room which sleeps 4 . Think twice while booking , cannot even take luggage to the rooms with very inconvenient high step old creepy stairs and no elevator . Very overpriced . 350$+ for a night . A big no , beware - person checking me in was the worst ever I have to deal with , very unpleasant -to talk - could be with name Sarena.

This is a combination property of a small motel and RV park. The rooms are large and clean with coffee makers in each room. The location of the motel is perfect behind a boardwalk mall that has many restaurants and shops far less expensive than in the Denali princess and Holland America resort. However, it is perfectly located directly across the street so you can pick up Tours and use the restaurants and services at the lodge, but without paying the higher lodge prices. The rooms are basic and motel is definitely older, but kept very clean. The staff is friendly and went out of their way to help us in every way. They offer free shuttle service from the rail stationand the driver was so accommodating.

Site is in an amazing location. Walkable to all shops and restaurants in the area. It had all the amenities needed like dump station, water, electric, trash, shower, etc. It wasn't glamorous by any means, kind of looked more like a parking lot that had random camper hookups but it was a great location and fit our needs.

The rooms were dated and could use a good dusting and updating. Office staff was not accommodating and gave conflicting information. Our driver Jace was great and tried to accommodate us it would have been nice if management did the same. Towels and bedding were worn. Best part was the convenient location to Denali and size of the room for 4 adults was good. Laundry was more expensive than surrounding hotels
