Top University Area Hotel Reviews

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Anchorage Airport

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean, the bed was very comfortable, and the walls were actually sound proof so I was able to get a decent nights sleep."

Creekwood Inn

2/10 Terrible

"We regret booking this hotel. The property is poorly maintained and appears neglected by management. The stairs leading to our room were dirty, and the room itself was in unacceptable condition: stained walls, stained shower head and tub, stained flooring, dirty windows, and a TV that barely worked. Despite being a non-smoking room, it smelled strongly of cigarette smoke. When we requested a different room, the hotel refused to accommodate us. Spend a few extra dollars and stay somewhere else. We learned our lesson."

Wingate by Wyndham Anchorage Downtown/Ship Creek

8/10 Good

"This hotel worked out well for us as a location to spend a few post-cruise days in Anchorage. We enjoyed watching people fishing for salmon in the creek behind the hotel. It was across the street from the train station, which was convenient for transportation (though loud at time), and the shuttle took us to a day trip meeting point."

The Lakefront Anchorage

2/10 Terrible

"I requested that the toilet in my room be fixed as it would not flush since the day I arrived. Sent leashes, called front desk staff 3 times and the toilet was still not fixed I had to leave the property each time I needed to us the restroom. Cooridors and stariwells are dated and unsanitary. I will never return to this hotel and I do not recommend someone stay here."

Wyndham Garden Anchorage Airport

2/10 Terrible

"We booked for 2 queen bed, but front desk executive said all rooms are full and gave a king bed room which was really tight to fit in 3 adults. Toilet was not clean and the worst part was flush was not working. No alternate room was provided and no maintenance guy came in the night. My wife has a medical condition and she had to suffer a lot in this whole transaction during midnight hours. Refund was also not provided."
