Guest Reviews
- Taisia (8/5): - It was nice and clean and quiet. The only thing the bed was way to soft for us. Really liked the place.
- Steven (10/5): - Maybe add a air fryer for preparing meals
- Robert (6/5): - Yes
- Kirk (10/5): - Room was perfect
- Hunter (10/5): - Clean, Comfy, quiet room at the right price. A+
- Sabrina (8/5): - It was very convenient to both anchorage and girdwood. Staff was accommodating and quick to respond.
- Harold (10/5): - Long-standing well run family business.
- Michael (10/5): - The room was very comfortable and clean. We will definitely stay there again. The price was great!!
- Chantal (10/5): - I liked having the room with a full-size washer and dryer. The kitchen was immaculate, and so was the bathroom. The bed was very comfortable, and it felt very safe being at this property. I will definitely stay here again!
- John (10/5): - What I would like to share is that this property is available, competativly priced, and clean, clean, clean + cute. Because the corporate, hotels and motels, have decided to recoupe their losses due to the covid years, the have forgotten that it is those of us whom are local that give them revenue 12 months out of the year. Bird Creek Motel (BCM) keeps their pricing competative. My wife and I love this little place along the way to Anchorage, from our home in Kenai. A place we can see using as our go-too for years to come. Thank you BMC
- John Deborah (10/5): - Its clean and convientent, the pricing is competative We love this location.
- Hyung (10/5): - 앵커리지 공항이 멀지않고 수워드와 호머 가는 위치가 좋다
- Becky (10/5): - Very clean, quaint room, very pleased.
- William (8/5): - This is a great choice for price and location. Parking is not a problem. There is not much around but that can be a plus. There is a great convenience store next door.
- Carnel (6/5): - Water pressure good. Double beds fine for 1 person only. Google mentions that there is a restaurant attached, apparently it hasnt been there for years. Needs some sound proofing between units
- Gail (8/5): - Simple but clean comfortable room at very reasonable rate. No staff available. Only could get 1 TV channel.
- Kim (10/5): Awesome motel!! - Check in was super easy. We got in very late and no problems finding our room and a place to park in front of our door. Rooms are very comfortable and extremely quiet. We needed a place to park an extra car for a few hours after checking out and Veronica was very accommodating. We have been looking for our go to place when we need a night in Anchorage. We will be back!!
- india (10/5): - We had a great stay. Accommodations were clean and stocked.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Great place - The outside looks are deceiving. This place is a gem. It is very comfortable. It has a small fridge, microwave and coffee maker. The bed was great! My only wish was that the water was a little hotter. Great place to stay!
- Merideth (10/5): - Very quiet and cozy
- James (10/5): - Pleased with location and facility. We brought our instant cereals for cooking but there were only 2 coffee cups and 2 spoons available use. A few dishes, an ice tray and paper towels would be nice.
- Charlene (10/5): - I thought the lock on the door could have been better. It did not feel like it was not real secure. Other than that it was very nice place to stay. They did not use one time use items. I appreciate that. Great tea selection.
- weishan (6/5): - Very convenient location on our way back to Anchorage. For the price, I guess I couldn't complain much. Got what I paid for, not much more.
- Sy (10/5): - Beautiful Area, Easy to Access, Comfortable Room with Amenities.
- belinda (10/5): - Cute rooms, good location
- Joseph (10/5): - Very clean
- Lisa (10/5): - Very comfortable bed. Had full size refrigerator and a washer and dryer in the room. We liked the location not being in Anchorage but a little south. Was very close to an awesome restaurant, Turnagain Fish Co. Would stay here again.
- Mi Seon (10/5): - Very clean place with a comfortable bed. Very easy check in and out system. It’s convenient to have a decent size sink and a refrigerator.
- Robert E (10/5): - We loved the clear round corner shower! So cool! Room was quiet.
- Carole (10/5): - Nice and clean. Minimal amenities
- Christine (8/5): Nicely renovated older motel. - Nicely renovated rooms at older motel. Very quick to answer request for another set of towels. Close drive to Girdwood and short drive to Whittier.
- Anne (6/5): - It was fine for one night. Clean and had the bare necessities. It’s right on the highway, so kinda loud. Close to Girdwood for coffee in the morning.
- Bryan (10/5): Better Than Expected - Much nicer on the inside than the outside. Check in is DIY, like airBnB. Clean and updated rooms. Much cheaper than Anchorage.
- Christopher (4/5): - I got to my room and the sink was clogged and full of hair. they were already in bed, they wont let you in their office. Even in the morning I could not talk to them about the broken sink, ice bucket, blood on sheet. Then i had a job interview and its so far out of Anchorage you cant get an uber. Very inconvenient. I paid 229.00 for one night it was expensive and there are no dining options or eminities
- Donna (6/5): - We needed assistance on getting the t.v. and wifi to work . There was nobody answering the office doorbell and tried to call them but couldnt as there was no cell service. The beds are soft so not good if you have back trouble . The rooms were clean and like the location.
- Lyndon (10/5): - Nice stay. Beds are a little soft but still a very nice room.
- Deb (8/5): - Good place to stay on the way to Anchorage.
- Debra (6/5): - The room was simple but very clean. It was in a remote area so wouldn’t want to stay more than one night, but it served its purpose to get us out of Anchorage on our way to Seward.
- Travis (8/5): - It's a quiet affordable place to stay that's got beautiful views of the water and mountains. Only a short drive to Anchorage when you want or need to go to town.
- Larry (6/5): - Just a stop on the way home. We were in an out in less than 12 hours.
- Kristin (10/5): - Quick , clean, spacious and comfortable . Beautiful view and easy to get to :)
- Diane (6/5): - Check in was smooth and simple. There was no AC only a loud fan to circulate air in the room. We thought it was overpriced for the location. Someone else booked it for us, but we should have looked ourselves. We would have found nicer places for less expense.
- Mark (10/5): - Seamless
- Amelia (8/5): - A fun little motel with a great view of the mountains! It was a warm night and we couldn’t figure out how to turn off the base board heating so we opened the window. Room was clean and had a retro feel to it. We also liked the big eagle statue in the middle of the property!
- Girish (10/5): - Good place
- Keith (8/5): - Convenient location to the highway but not noisy. Great view.
- Erica (10/5): - We were passing through area and this was accomodation that met our needs perfectly at a reasonable cost. Restaurant nearby lovely.
- Jane (10/5): - This reasonable priced motel is a great choice if you’re spending a few days pre-cruise. It is just down the road from Anchorage off by itself near great hiking and convenient to the glaciers. The exterior is a bit dated, but our room had been nicely updated with all the standard expectations along with some charming touches. It is a virtual check in; however, the host was very responsive to email or text which made it super easy. Would definitely stay here again.
- Karen (10/5): - Quaint little place. Clean rooms with comfortable bed and nice size towels. Beautiful scenery with great customer service. Would stay here again.
- Heather (10/5): - We arrived late and simply entered our room code. The motel was an older building, but inside had been renovated within the last few years. It was a clean and nice place to stay on the road. We literally came in, showered, slept and then we left the next morning.
- Thomas (10/5): - Enjoyed staying here. Will definitely stay here again.
- Karen (8/5): - The location is great for hiking and access to the glacier park. The room was generally clean, except that the fridge contained the leftover food from the guest before us. Overall, the stay was great and we would book here again.
- James (10/5): - Clean and easy to get too. Not far from great hiking
- Gary (10/5): Diamond in the rough - Doesn't look like much from the outside, but the rooms are nicely updated, clean and well-furnished. Comfortable beds, thick towels and a small breakfast table and chairs.
- Helen (8/5): - Basic hotel. Worked well for a one night stop over on the way through.
- Elizabeth (10/5): - It was very quiet and comfortable
- Charles (8/5): - It was an older motel but had been maintained well and was very comfortable and quiet. Could use another mirror in the room, but it was good and reasonably priced.
- wanjun (10/5): - It is a small motel near the scenic road from Anchorage to Seward. The view awesome. It takes 30- 40 minutes to get to Anchorage, 20 minutes to get to Wild life center and 40 minutes to Whittier. The price is much reasonable compared to the fancy hotels in Anchorage and Sewards. There is a gas station next to the motel. We brough our own food. We did not see many dinning options.
- Rucha (8/5): - Good for budget
- Rajesh (10/5): - I recently stayed at this motel about 30 minutes from Anchorage, and it was a good experience. The location is safe, quiet, and surrounded by beautiful scenery. I loved being able to walk right from the motel to some stunning scenic trails—perfect for a morning hike or evening stroll. Veronica updated us with all the details we needed on the day of check-in, making the process smooth and stress-free. The self check-in was convenient and easy to use.
- Kathleen (8/5): - Hi, nice & close to Airport
- William (10/5): My favorite place - Excellent overall experience with great amenities and location.
- Bailey (10/5): - Lovely place to stay
- Becky (10/5): - Exceptioally clean, very nice
- Paul (10/5): - Quiet, clean motel located not too far from Anchorage. Just what we were looking for. I would definitely stay here again.
- Djurdjica (10/5): - Clean comfortable room
- Quan (10/5): - It is next to the highway so very convenient to drive to view points on the way to Seward. I stay for one night after long drive. I found it is actually a great stop to continue the next day trip to either Whittier or Seward. This part of Hwy is very scenic.
- Kenneth (10/5): - Great place to stay just outside of Anchorage. We stayed here in order to catch a flight the next day. Would stay here again.
- Adam (10/5): - Checkin was easy, even though we were very late. Rooms were clean and comfortable.
- Seth (10/5): - Location, cost, comfort, couldn’t be beat.
- Thomas (8/5): - The property was ok, kitchen and laundry facilities in the apartment. Its more of an Airbnb than a motel room. There was no front desk or checkin.
- Holly (8/5): - The Bird Creek Motel was a perfect location for our exploration of the Girdwood area. The rooms were clean, beds were comfortable, the location was great. It was very quiet. Check in was easy with a code to our room texted to us. Easy, convenient. Recommend
- PETER (10/5): - Loved the bathtub! A real one from back in the day before shrinkflation took over and started shrinking everything. Best price on the peninsula in the tourist season. Being a local forced to go to Anchorage for whatever reason, it was nice to be just outside the overpriced zone. Thank you, Veronica!
- Jacquelyn (10/5): - We were pleasantly surprised, from the outside it doesn’t look like much but we had plenty of room inside. I booked a room with two large beds for four people and we ended up with a mini apartment. We had two bedrooms a. Nice size bathroom and small kitchen with a full size fridge. Also a mini living room area with a futon couch if we would’ve needed more sleeping space. The owner also let us do a couple loads of laundry for free. I thought that was super nice. This has been one of our nicer stays while on this Alaskan adventure. It was also nice and quiet, very peaceful. I would definitely stay here again!
- Giovanni (10/5): - It was a great convenient place to stay. Affordable and staff was great.
- Phillip (8/5): - Rooms were clean and comfortable.
- Stacy (10/5): - This motel is more than we expected. We were just looking for a convenient place to stay outside of Anchorage. I would choose this motel again anytime. We were able to park outside room and conveniently organize the stuff. They have automatic keypad doors which made check in very safe and easy. The room was well appointed with extras like soaps and coffee. The beds were comfortable and clean. I will make this one a must stay if you are looking for something right outside of Anchorage.
- Raymond (10/5): - Easy check in and very clean
- Roger (8/5): - It is not the Hilton, but the room was clean and everything was easy to get to and the price of the room was in our budget and certainly satisfied our needs. Would stay there again if I am in the area and needed a room for overnight.
- Craig (10/5): - Clean quiet property with very comfortable beds and beautiful views
- Howard (8/5): - In the middle of nowhere!
- nee (8/5): - overall I find the room clean, amenities all work and it is good value for the money. Front office was closed at time of my arrival so I had to call from a phone right outside the lobby office. The phone was answered promptly and I was given a code to end my room. That was neat.
- Diane (8/5): - Very clean. Nice linens!!
- Siddharth (10/5): - Absolutely loved this property, great location, what a view! The room was decently sized with neat and clean bathroom and a separate shower section.
- MIN (10/5): - nice and quiet
- james (8/5): - Convenient for me.
- Robyn (10/5): - The motel doesn't look like much on the outside, although they have done a good job of upgrading it. but I found it surprisingly Clean and organized with new bedding, and decor. They have done an excellent job of renovating this older motel up to modern standards and I would recommend this place to anyone that needs a place to stay along the Seward Hwy of Alaska. I would stay again
- Clarence (4/5): - Staff first night refused to give door code after giving wrong door code . Bedding smelled like mildew and mouse urine. Parking lot was muddy and full of pot holes. Gave us correct door code next day. Room could have been clean. We didnt stay the second night. Just poor customer service. Plumbing ba ged and rattled every time you used itholesmuddy and 100 pot holes
- John (10/5): - All good
