Don't even think about staying here. Sympathetic desk clerk, however. This is a dirty, squalid long-term residency hotel and should not be advertising as a tourist hotel. And to add insult to injury, it's not even that cheap at $89 a night. I've been traveling in Canada and Alaska for the past several weeks and have stayed at many lovely... More

This was, by far, the worst excuse for a hotel/motel I have EVER experienced! The rooms were shabby and dirty....it was terrible!!! I don't know how they are licensed. This was the first place we booked on our dream vacation in Alaska. And, needless to say, our perception of Alaska couldn't have started out on a worse note. Do not... More

We arrive to be told by the manager that "this is a safe place", which sent the alarm bells off....This place is full of..urm how to put this, "not nice people"...I really would not stay there, in fact we walked away. The room was horrible and I would not let my dog sleep here.

This place is a (--)!!! Dirty, smelly, absolutely disgusting, it looks like it has NEVER been cleaned. Don't be swayed by the photos, they are a lie. Our experience was just awful. They boast a "kitchenette," but there isn't a plate, a cup or glass, utensil or even a towel in that kitchenette; there is no hair dryer; there isn't... More

We arrived to find that this hotel is really a resident hotel for locals. It was very shabby and not clean. Beds booked were queens but when we arrived they did not have any available. Offered to give us a suite but when we went to the room it had not been cleaned. We ended up with a full bed... More

We live in Palmer. Lived in Bethel for 25+ years and often stayed in the Big City. Today, we will occasionally spend the night in Anchorage. Years ago, we often stayed at the Royal Suite because we knew the owners. After several years, we decided to try it again, and is now a dump. It is a poor reflection on... More

This is the worst place I've ever been in my life. If I only read Tripadvisor before... Anyway, please do not be tempted by its website: the place is so dirty, it smells so bad, it's so shabby ... and it is not even cheap. We spent our first night here and it was such a bad start of our... More

Don't be misled by the name, many of the units are rented out on a month-to-month basis to people who curse at each other, fight, party, and bang around until 3:00 or 4:00 in the morning. If the pervasive filth and grime doesn't keep you from sleeping, the stench of smoke, the loud neighbors, and the worn out, painful, stained,... More
