Aspen Suites Anchorage Downtown

Floor was dirty, the thermostat didn’t work. The room continuously stayed at 75 degrees regardless of how the thermostat was set. Also, the sheets had stains on them. They were washed and clean, but not good enough.

The property was walking distance from restaurants downtown, however lots of homeless people in the area, some even sleeping by the hotel parking lot. “Breakfast” is just an assortment of breakfast bars. Toilet barely flushes, a/c unit is useless/ does not work in tandem with the thermostat.

You get what you pay for. I would stay here again or recommend for cheap lodging in the area. Hotel was clean and easily accessible, staff was friendly and helpful, we experienced no issues whatsoever. People complined about the breakfast which was coffee, granola bars and muffins, but it states on the website it is a " grab and go" breakfast. Not a hot continental breakfast, so we were aware of that. Showers were hot and the cabinets didn't have cookware or dishes in them but if you needed anything just ask the desk and they'll give you whatever you need for your kitchenette. There are 2 small parking lots and if you're not in for the day by 8-9:00 pm you'll have to park on the street in front ,which is metered parking, but as long as you've moved by 9am you won't get charged anything. I've seen some very negative reviews, but as I said you get what you pay for and can't expect 5 star accommodations for a 2 star price. They keep the front door locked and you need to use your keycard to get in which I liked as a safety precaution. I never felt "unsafe" here and would stay again if im back in tbe area.

I just liked the staff and the room was really nice I would stay there again.

Location good… carpet is old and frayed… rooms not sound proof… we were on main floor and can hear walking on second floor. Have to pay for bottled water.

The pool was closed. We had to wait 2 days for a coffee pot. I think they bought us a brand new coffee pot. No cooking utensils. No dish rack. No sponge for dishes. The staff was nice though.

For the cost, the place was dirty and had a horrible odor. The staff was rude.

Shower head was leaking badly. No conditioner. No dryer. No cups for drinking or coffee maker. Refrigerator was noisy (loud).

Swimming pool was closed!

Filthy, Room was absent of all essential items
