"One of the few hotels in Fairbanks that has the bathroom sink and mirror INSIDE the bathroom, rather than out in the bedroom area. Felt very homey and comfortable with card tables in the lobby and ice cream scoop for $1.50 every night. Books, games available for guests. Shuttle was convenient, drivers were friendly. Gym was definitely a plus. The breakfast was just OK, not exceptional, but overall we would stay there again."
