We artived and were given a room that we found was already filled with luggage, so they gave us another room, next to a noisy elevator and facing an alley, rather than the beutiful mountains or river, seems we were downgraded, rather than upgraded after the inconvienience

The location couldn't be better. It is only a 6-7 minute drive from Denali National Park Visitor Center. The hotel layout and amenities are good (several restaurants and shops are available, though the restaurants are expensive). However, the guest room interiors need a serious interior remodel--they seem to be from the 1980s at best. We had two rooms, and in one of the bathrooms, the toilet and hair dryer did not work; the carpet was all faded, the ceiling had rust stains; the mattresses were somewhat lopsided, and there was no thermostat to keep a uniform temperature... One of the rooms was in a motel-type block, meaning we could not open the curtains to look at the landscape because people walked by all the time. In short, I was really disappointed. I expected much better for what we paid. Also, we made reservations for two rooms, and they were located on opposite sides of the property, which was very inconvenient. Be aware that there is no way to unload your luggage close to your room. There was a very rude employee who told us to leave the drop-off because the buses bringing the Princess Cruises guests were coming. You may have to haul your luggage across from the parking lot all the way to your room, which can be very far; and you may have to do it under the rain (that happened to us). In addition, if you reserve through Expedia you may not get what you requested. We requested one of the rooms to have a king bed and they gave us two fulls instead...

This property is not set up for the independent traveler. We came in by auto, not a part of Princess tours. They did not have our correct reservation and tried to put us in a lesser room than we paid for. There is extremely limited parking and nowhere near the guest rooms. We were able to get a bell man to deliver our bags on arrival but was told we were leaving before bell men were available on departure. Resulting in hauling our bags ourselves on a ten minute trek. Also no luggage carts. Absolutely little or no service for a room that cost over $400.00

Staff at main desk seemed put upon if you ask for something. Coffee shop around n main building understaffed. Coffee shop between A-B closes too early. The dude who was supposed to announce our tour over the speaker did not and we were the last on the bus (after previously talking g to him and getting his assurance he’d announce the bus when it got there
