Overall, its a nice hotel, but not family friendly. The breakfast closes at 9am ! I think its ok for business customers, but not for family. While we were there, I saw so many families coming at 9/9:30 and to their surprise, no breakfast ! And the kitchen was closed ! Luckily I asked the time when we checked in... More

This was our third time staying here. I loved this place the first two times we stayed here. This time we arrived 7 hours late due to a delayed plane. IT was late and they put us in room 201. There is not a bathtub in this room :O( but it was late, we were tired, so we just unpacked... More

I had never stayed at a SpringHill Suites Hotel. I loved the modern yet welcoming feel of the lobby. My room was very well designed and had a beautiful view of the lake. The staff could not have been friendlier, front desk, housekeeping, and shuttle bus drivers. A daily run around the lake was invigorating. I came away more rested... More

I've been here three times now and have yet to get a good nights sleep because of all the kids staying here for sports events. A lot of running up and down the halls, slamming doors and yelling as well as hanging out in the lobby. The midnight birthday celebration outsite under my window this last trip made me say... More

I stayed here for 1 week in March 2012. I was very impressed with the quality of the property and of the staff. The location is also superb as it sits on a lake with a walking trail. I stayed here with two kids and we took full advantage of the pool. A small complaint might be that a couple... More

I stayed here for 8 days on a business trip. The room is very modern, think Ikea. The separate "rooms" for the toilet and shower were weird, but served their purpose well enough. As someone else noted, no matter what you do, the water in the shower will leak out onto the floor. They do have a really good free... More

The room has a modern touch feel and spacious. Being equipped with microwave and small fridge, it really helpful for us since we are travelling with small children.Being part of Marriot , this hotel met my expectation. Eventhough it was full booked, they kept our room. By the time we got there at almost 12 midnight, there were someone helping... More

We stayed here for 3 nights to visit family in the hospital. The entire hotel is very nice, clean with modern decor. The breakfast was very good.. much better than some "free" breakfasts offered at other hotels. I wish they had better quality coffee though. But, overall the place was great and so was the staff!

We stayed at this property due to my husband's conference at the nearby University of Alaska. Also, I read the positive reviews prior to coming and was not disappointed. There were some ups and downs however. We followed the hotel's directions and called for the shuttle bus from the airport when we got our bags. It had been snowing, so... More
