The facility sits on a gorgeous piece of property with a river running behind it, a walking path, and an education center that can be used by young and old to study the surrounding area. Our room was old, blinds were tattered, it was however clean.

Mediocre Stay
It’s an old place, heating wasn’t working, and the fan in the bathroom was obnoxious. Some of the power outlets didn’t work, and when we told them about the issues, they asked us to wait a couple of hours.

Loved being on the river! Front desk said we were on 1st floor but our room was actually on 2nd floor. We didn’t have any hot water at 8:30 in the morning to shower. Nice lobby area but restaurant/bar was only open till 9:00. We ended up having to go elsewhere to eat a late dinner. Overall it was a good place and would stay there again

Good location, lacking in character
Decent lodge with all the facilities required but was a little dark and also a lot of road noise from a nearby bridge as well as noise from the railway. The restaurant was decent food but because of the large groups and open plan style did not feel particularly cosy / intimate as a restaurant.

Terrible TV /Wifi service. Food is way overpriced, but not terrible. Breakfast is lackluster at best. No fridge or microwave in rooms. Denali was closed due to fires. Onsite hotel staff offered no other trail options. We searched for a few hours to find something. Hotel needs a good concierge.

The reservation was to pay at the property but the payment was charged at the time of reservation and they charged addition amounts which had to be disputed to get that back. Overall the room promised was facing river but was not and room had misty odor.

Could not adjust room temperature (no thermometer). Was too hot and the only way to cool off was to open a window.

Poor quality both facility and service
The lobby of the main building and their ads were good looking to impress you to book. But the actual room was significantly inferior. Also there was no refrigerator in the room. The service was poor. Our main reason for travel was to view northern light. We put our name on calling list if there was northern light during middle of night. There was only one day and they didn't call us. Our trip was wasted. We have to go again spending thousands of dollar. They said we have to put our name every night bit the receptionist didn't tell us that. If we were told, we would have done this. Don't recommend this hotel to anyone.

Disappointing stay
Very disappointing stay. When checking in for 3 nights clerk asked if we wanted to be notified about Northern Lights, of course we said yes. On a tour we were told by several they saw lights night before, we inquired at desk and they said you have to sign up daily but wasn’t told that. Our room had been updated a bit. New carpet, fairly new walk in shower but extremely loud. People above sounded like a heard of elephants every day and could even hear them talking. Doors slamming, floors squeaking, people walking in the building in general. We had to run the fan to drown out noise. Also, they provide an iron/board (??why) but no fridge. Very few outlets, had to put the tiny coffee maker and my phone charger on the floor. Would not stay again
