The room is smaller in size and very basic, but generally clean, although there was some mold surrounding the top of the bathtub. The shower itself was nice. Pretty good water pressure. I don't generally like two in one shampoo and conditioner, but this one was not bad (meaning it was fairly easy to brush my hair afterwards). It along with the lotion had a nice scent (I think cucumber melon). I have not gone to the breakfast yet, so can't comment on that. The staff was nice. Our TV was not working and someone came up immediately and helped us. I believe the hotel is being remodeled, just not sure they have completely updated ours yet. The bed is really soft, which isn't my favorite, but may be for someone else. We chose this place because it is close to the airport.

Airport shuttle was easy and efficient. Public transportation in Anchorage was also efficient and bus stops are right in front of the motel.
