We stayed at the Golden North Inn 2 different nights before and after a remote fly-in camping trip. The rooms were recently updated and the hotel offers an assortment of free breakfast options (good quality yogurt, instant oatmeal, bagels or sweet rolls, good coffee). The staff is responsive and helpful. The mattress is a bit softer than I prefer, the only negative. The duvet covers are clean and white. This is a basic hotel with clean and modern decor for a decent price in Fairbanks in the summer. The grocery is a block away. They have lovely hanging flower baskets along the front of the hotel.

A few issues despite good staff and a straightforward process: the a/c in the room is cresting a wet/mold issue that was noticeable. My bedsheets had two significant coffee ( I hope) stains. Accommodations are basic but otherwise was decent. 2.5/5.

The comfort queen rooms are tiny rooms so be aware. Literally a queen bed against the wall so one side is tough to get in/out of. If you are just looking for a crash pad, this room is fine. Otherwise you will want bigger than 200sf.

The staff is very courteous and helpful and the rooms are dated but clean.
The towels are changed daily but beds are not made unless you ask for it.
Hair dryers are not provided but you can ask for them at the office.
Again, if you want an inexpensive small room, this place is fine.

Overall the property is old and outdated. Room had a mildew odor that never went away. Bathroom was newly remodeled but the whole unit had drop down ceiling panels and I guarantee the ceiling above the shower isn’t going to last. Work desk was too high for the regular kitchen table type chair that they had. Had a portable air conditioner with no control so could not adjust the settings. Only two pluses was they had healthy breakfast options. I will say the young woman at the front desk was friendly and very helpful with any questions I had and also offered a late check out.

This was a clean and basic place to stay at reasonable price for Fairbanks.

Airport shuttle available even after 9pm. Staff were courteous and helpful. Hotel was a short distance from airport. Clean bathroom with plenty fluffy towels and hot water. Fred Meyers store was a short walk which had most everything that you would need. It is a short ride to Pioneer Park and the Salmon Bake. A complimentary continental breakfast was available (coffee, water, tea, hot chocolate, boiled eggs, cheese sticks, oatmeal, yogurt, fruit, and a variety of breakfast bars). Since I arrived at night, I just needed a clean, safe place to stay to recover from traveling all day. And this place met my needs.

The shuttle from the airport was easy to find and it was a quick drive. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Renovations were happening in the room next to me - hammering and drilling for most of the afternoon didn’t help my jet lag. The motel seemed pretty quiet - not sure why I would be given a room right next to the noise. Breakfast was good and well-stocked. My only real complaint was while I was unrolling the tub mat, a giant clump of black hair fell loose. Pretty disgusting. Overall, it was a good value for the price.

The room was clean. The staff were very, very kind. The breakfast, though limited than some, has what you need to get the day going. The shuttle was very convenient. However, for the showers, the water gets nice and hot, but it makes a really loud whistle sound. With how the neighbors can hear one another, it may get annoying for them fast. That was for my room only as far as I know, but it occurred in room 130.

Basic breakfast which was more than adequate and coffee tea in reception area.
The staff were very friendly and a free shuttle to/ from train and airport was provided on a personal basis.
Even though the property was 4 km from downtown there was a huge shopping complex 5mins walk away and also a good bus service during the week, doesn’t run on weekends which was a little annoying. The bus is free if over 60 😊

I had a solo travel in the 3rd week of March. It is a budget friendly motel, so don’t expect a lot. I was firstly greeted by the staffs in the lobby, checking in was smooth and they were very friendly. One of them even helped me bring my luggage upstairs as there was just 2 floors so no elevator. Breakfast area was small and with foods like bagel, fruits, energy snacks, different spreads, yogurt, egg, cheese and free water and coffee with several creamers. I liked their bagels and fresh coffee. The room was not that spacious, max capacity was 2 but 1 medium luggage will only fit with no space to move around. There was a fridge, microwave and TV. Door was jammed and was not closing properly. At some point facility came to check. I did not complain about it when I first noticed so not sure if staff were informed before my arrival or probably escalated by the housekeeping. I did not bother cause I already organized my stuff. The bathroom was okay, not super clean drawers but not a big deal as I did not need to use it. They cleaned the rooms everyday and provided new towels. At first, the room was cold and it took some time to make the room warm, I needed to put the heater to the highest temperature. There was no blower. And weird event that a staff needed to come in to check the fuse in the room as somebody complained that other rooms’ heater was not working. My first time to encounter that a fuse that control other motel rooms’ electric supply is not in the lobby. Nice bed thou
