That no one had any info about their shuttle service. N body seemed to know. I’d of muddled my flight out. Tours rule. I’m an Alaskan resident and any hotel has made my life much harder due to pure greed . I am 78 I was told Princess Riverview HAD a shuttle to airport. Then the day I drove up to Fbks to store my car. No way to even get TO you and once there. Nope no shuttle. Then got redirected to yes there is. But the desk and lobby had no idea. Got a few hrs sleep. Ate. But had I not kept walking outside and inside I never would have seen this huge empty bus and a 20 yr old who had no idea what to do just in this empty bus. Nice kid took me to airport. Shuttle to 2 am flight is the ONLY reason I need a room at all.

Replacing simple coin-op machines like laundry and soda is an insufferable practice. I don't need an outside company collecting my purchasing history of a freaking soda so they can tailor their approval amounts. The laundry was another story-- 7 or 8 bucks for one load, but you have to download an app to use it. Which you can't do in a concrete basement. And the machine didn't work anyway. The ext to call to report it doesn't get answered. An hour an a half later, I finished one load of laundry. There's no microwave in the room. There's on in the community room, about a 10-mile walk back to the other end of the hotel. This is a place to corral cruise-line passengers into banquet rooms. They do not treat regular travelers well in any respect.

Avoid Princess if your are traveling independently
We were independent travelers amidst an entire hotel of cruise ship guests. I would not recommend for someone who is not with the cruise. I purposely picked the hotel because it was the only option I found with 2 double beds. Unfortunately, they gave us a room with one king. I am traveling with my adult age son and do not want to share a bed with him so I complained. After a bit of push back, they offered to send up a rollaway. The level of comfort on a rollaway is not the same. My son asked me to not be upset any longer, so instead I went to shower. The water pressure was almost nonexistent. So, overall, the two things that mattered most — bed and shower — were unsatisfactory. Not to mention at 4am or so, all the cruise ship people start rolling their bags to the halls and the place gets loud.
