“A hotel that cares”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 November 2007
1
person found this review helpful

I stayed at the Soldotna Inn for a week while attending to some family business, and I was pleasantly surprised. Sure, the hotel is clearly not a four-star property, but it's clean, comfortable, and the ownership and staff bend over backward to accommodate their guests' needs. The complimentary breakfast goes way beyond a typical continental offering, with cereals, a huge assortment of pastries, fresh fruit, and more.

The microwave oven and small fridge in the room were gratefully appreciated and used every day. Linens were clean and of good quality, and housekeeping was attentive. WiFi was not 100 percent reliable, but good enough so that I could actually get some work done. As a bonus, Mykel's restaurant, which is part of the hotel, was outstanding.

I arrived with a bad attitude, a lot of work to do, and not wanting to be there. The Soldotna Inn made all the difference in the world, buffering a difficult week and providing a welcome refuge every evening.

“Smoky and loud”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 June 2007

I must have gotten the worst room in this place, #201. I knew I was in for a treat when I received an actual key for the room on the big plastic identification keyring. It was the last one available, located on the ground floor right next to the main office. This was the smokiest non-smoking room I haver ever stayed in. After the first night I realized cigarette smoke was coming in through the bathroom fan so I kept the bathroom door closed. Smoke also came in through the window since it was 5 feet from the communal ash try and break chair. The bell tied the door to the office could be heard every time someone went in or out of there, even with my windows closed. The walls were paper thin and I heard my neighbor wake-up very early to Headline News for an hour every moning, as well as people walking upstairs. The room was average decor for a fishing town and clean enough. The old lighting was laughable. At least there were lots of cable channels and I listened to the music channels while doing work. The free continental breakfast was nice and there is Wi-Fi in that room. The adjoining restaurant and bar, Mykels, was all smoke-free and very good. Great lunch special for salmon salad sandwich and homemade soup for $6.

  • Liked — cable music channels
  • Disliked — noise, smoke

“Old but clean”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 June 2007
1
person found this review helpful

Our room was clean, but the upholstery on the two chairs, and the sofa, were old and worn. The carpet was clean, and the bath was also nice and clean. The mattress was old also, but because of an added foam mattress on top, it wasn't too bad. The towels in the bathroom were also pretty worn - almost threadbare. The linens on the bed, however, were just fine, and the bed was made correctly. The pillows were unfluffable.
The Wifi connection was excellent, and there were LOTS of channels on the TV. The staff was very good, and the breakfast area was lovely.

  • Liked — Location for fishing and at $139/night, one of the less expensive hotels.
  • Disliked — Worn upholstery and noisy thoroughfare nearby.

“Lots of Nice Changes!”

Lots of new changes due to new management! Rooms have been updated since we stayed last time. Added new breakfast area and public computers. Lots of board games and books for kids in the lobby. Excellent staff and un-be-lievable restaurant!
