“pay a little extra for a better hotel;”

My husband and I spent the first two nights of our 2 week Alaskan vacation at the Red Roof Inn. From the outside it looks fine, but the rooms was in need of some major renovations;carpet dirty, bedspreads and drapes were very worn;room was tiny;employees were friendly and helped with directions;I wish we had spent a few extra dollars and stayed somewhere else;at least the rest of the accomadations on our trip were great.

If you are on a budget, this is a great place to stay. The rooms are clean and way much better than other motels you can find in Anchorage.

“Incredible Value”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 June 2007
2
people found this review helpful

Considering that similar category establishments (Days Inn for example) are charging twice as much, this place is an incredible value. On the outskirts of downtown but still very walkable; smallish, clean room; basic continental breakfast - you're eating in the lobby or the room tho; limited parking if you're driving - especially a larger vehicle; free shuttle to/from airport saves $25 cab fare right off if you're not.

  • Liked — Price
  • Disliked — being a few blocks away from the center of activity

“Rough start”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 June 2007

person found this review helpful

Even after comfirming with Red Roof on their 1-800-RED-ROOF phone number several times before our trip, once arriving in Anchorage, the desk clerk totally had different reservations. We had reserved one business King room and they had on "their" reservation systems a standard room with two double beds. The clerk said that the "Red Roof" 1-800 line has a different reservations system than theirs even though I showed her the printed confirmation showing the business King as being reserved.

I was amazed and pointed out to her why should people even call and confirm on the 1-800 line when you can have a totally different reservation at the Anchorage location. After telling the clerk that I was going to call the 1-800-RED-ROOF line and vent, she managed to get me my room. So be aware when coming here with a confirmation as you might not get what you are expecting.

Other than that, the room was clean and comfortable, but nothing more than just a place to sleep at night when traveling. Their continental breakfast was ok consisting of a machine for coffee and juice, donuts and bagels.
