Room was modernized/refreshed, clean and comfortable. Restaurant provided great food options. Location was great for downtown activities. Rooms provided full blackout curtains for summer nights with long daylight hours.

Please be aware, the hallways are hilariously long, never seen such a long hotel before! Also, the hotel is close to the railroad station, so you will hear train horns over night, and during the day will hear small prop planes passing by

The hotel relies heavily on exchange students for staff which is common in Alaska, but the staff need to be adequately trained to deal with customers.

Management is either absent or indifferent when receiving constructive feedback which is a shame.

General standard of hotels in Anchorage is far better than this one.

The hotel is transitioning from the old location that was here to the brand new Hyatt JDV hotel. Still some improvements happening but the room was complete, new and comfortable to sleep in. The trains through downtown make it a little noisy but not terrible and don’t run all night long, and the hotel does provide earplugs as well in case you need them. The hotel is conveniently located in the downtown area with access to the Railroad behind it along with Ship Creek and some amazing restaurants. The hotel is on a street that is like a hill, so the 2nd floor is where the main lobby is but there are other access doors and conveniently placed staircases as well to get to your room anywhere in the hotel. Would definitely stay here again!

Lost my reservation, took an hour to resolve. Since they lost my reservation I got what was left of rooms which was as far from the lobby as possible. Unpacked and found that part of the room was soaking wet from a water leak. Had to repack and move one room farther from the lobby. Room was very small for the price. Asked where a nearby cafe was. The staff gave directions but it was closed. Went back to the hotel and asked about a different cafe and guess what, it was closed also. I think that I should receive compensation, otherwise I will put this out to the public.

Room was fine. We had room service and it was cold. When my wife told the evening supervisor about it he said it’s because they let the meat rest.

We loved this hotel, new in an older building completely renovated. Cute room, comfortable bed, nice shower, wonderful breakfast (not a buffet). Only cons--(1) sofa pillows kept sliding and back cushions would easily fall. Sofas need some engineering to prevent this. (2) Some street noise. Hotel leaves ear plugs by the bed, but we didn’t really need them.

nice renovated hotel. The bar, coffee/giftshop, fitness center, and hotel rooms give an updated retro feel.
All hotel staff seem warm and most will greet you when you pass by. The hotel coffee/giftshop will be your earliest access to coffee in the area should you not want to use the hotel room machine. The area around the hotel is quaint for access to gift shops, fun/cheap bars, some restaraunts, the train depot, bike rentals, and city history. There is a weekend market nearby I didn't go to. Construction, homeless, and many tourists are in this area also if those annoys you. You'll have to hear the train horns going off if your room is facing W 3rd Ave.

Cute hotel, staff are so nice and the property clean. Good location. Restaurant and bar good food, kitchen very slow to get food out. We were given a handicap accessible room (we didn’t need!) just be aware there is no room for your toiletries/makeup as it is just a sink in the bathroom. And the room temp never got below 72 even though it was set lower. I will say maintenance tried to help with this, but to no avail. Hotel has train on one side and busier street on the other, so rooms are noisy.

The room was minimalist but beautiful. The main drawback was the layout: our room was several hundred yards from the front desk, so any request required deciding whether it was worth the long walk. The refrigerator did not work; maintenance acknowledged the issue and said it would be replaced but never did. Front desk staff were polite but not particularly helpful, while the corridor staff were exceptional. The canteen/gift shop was overpriced and had a limited selection. We dined at the restaurant, which was excellent—I highly recommend it. The location is also very central. Overall, despite a few inconveniences, I would return to this hotel.

The hotel was wonderful, as was the staff. It was much larger inside than I was anticipating. I did get confused and turned around when parking. I parked in the lot that I guess is the back side, not main entrance? I followed my GPS. But I ended up on the bottom floor and it took a little while to realize I had to go upstairs to the main desk. Everything was brand new. I loved the vibe of the room. The only thing I couldn't stand, that I can't stand in any hotel are stupid sliding barn doors to the bathrooms! Sharing a hotel room without being able to fully shut a door for privacy drives me insane. This one was particularly annoying as it wasn't hung right so it wouldn't stay shut. Restaurant was delicious. Beds were comfortable. I would stay again if alone or the bathroom door situation was fixed :)

This is such a nice hotel the moment you enter it it just feels so comfortable. The rooms are spacious and quiet. Never heard anybody next-door to me. The coffee shop is divine the cutest way to start your morning when you’re not really craving a big breakfast from the restaurant inside the hotel crimson, which is immaculate, the reindeer hash to die for! Staff is very kind and accommodating, super helpful. You are in the heart of downtown Anchorage so you are able to walk around a lot of restaurants near you and the fifth Avenue mall is literally a street over so you can have some shopping time and burn the calories at the same time! I highly recommend staying here to anyone who is traveling to Anchorage you won’t regret making this your place of lodging during your travels.
