Fairbanks Princess Riverside Lodge

8/10 Good

"Really convenient from the airport. Room was a little weird having a suite like entrance with separate travelers. Hot breakfast was ok, but the view was excellent."

7 Gables Inn & Suites

2/10 Terrible

"Good morning . I will be checking out early . My husband will be bringing the key . I was extremely uncomfortable at the property due to the lack of privacy, and the hard furniture. I woke up in pain, I didn’t feel safe, and the shower didn’t work. Message I left for the staff. I checked out early and forfeited the funds spent for the days that I booked . The pictures are 12 years old. The property owners unfortunately aren’t able to keep up the property. They’re on the elderly side, and nothing has been maintained . There’s an odd smell throughout the property, the breakfast wasn’t as to be expected, and the property is very cluttery in the common areas."

Pike's Waterfront Lodge

6/10 Okay

"I can’t say anything bad about the property but can’t really say anything great about it either It’s a glorified motel 6 but is in a pretty spot on the river. It also seemed very expensive for the caliber of the property. That said, not much in Fairbanks AK so maybe I’m being unfair? They do have a pretty good bar next door, their staff were friendly and courteous. Their breakfast buffet is the same each day, nothing particularly special but filling. Overall I’d give it a 5 of 10"
