"Very low cost performance! Service rigid, shuttle chicken ribs, late deposit after check-out!
Convenient location but too large:
The hotel is located in the center of the town and is very large. There are many formal restaurants in the hotel area and there are some simple small restaurants in the town.
The shuttle time is extremely tasteless for outdoor free travel tourists:
If you are a free traveler without self-driving, don't choose here. Denali in early July is in extreme daytime (the sun sets at 23:30 in the evening, sunrise at 2:30 in the morning), and the park's official shuttle is running from 4:30 to 22:30. However, the hotel's shuttle bus is first at 6:00 and last only until 19:30. This limited schedule makes it impossible for tourists to watch wildlife or hike in the best time of the morning or late night.
There is no room for service:
The hotel mainly receives tour groups of princess cruises (Prince Cruise). The front desk attitude is very rigid, even if I want to check in 1-2 hours in advance, I will not be accommodating at all.
The operation of holding deposits is extremely bad:
A deposit of $50 was charged at check-in. It has been more than 10 days since I checked out, and I urged many times during this period, but they still did not take the initiative to refund. Considering the large number of guests the hotel receives every day, this malicious delay and failure to take the initiative to return the deposit, people have to wonder if it is an unjust wealth obtained by gray means.
Summary: This hotel is very low cost performance, it is strongly not recommended to stay!"
