Hotel was clean, check in was easy. Room was spacious and quiet. Location was great. Overall, it was a good visit and would stay again. Just a few tidbits below. There is a $25 fee per day for "ammenities", none of which we used. Since I received VIP status with Expedia, I received free wifi...in which I'm already having to pay for in the daily fee. It was a process to get enough linens for our room on a daily basis, sometimes never receiving when requested. They have alcoholic drinks sitting out in the room for you to buy. I have never encountered that before.

Great location- but didn’t sleep well

Wonderful location! Nice and modern room and beautiful decor. Our room was right across from the elevator and, although I love the non-carpeted floors for cleanliness, there was no noise-proofing. It was pretty loud. I could hear music next door and everyone who came off the elevator. Also the room was warm. Even when I turned the thermostat to 65 I was hot under the sheets which were soft but they were not breathable cotton. The shower was really nice with great pressure and hot water.

One night stay

Easy to find, pleasant check-in process, well laid out room for the space with everything you could need. Bed and pillows were ok. Shower was excellent! Easy check out. The ALK hotel restaurant was out of a lot of food and some drinks at 4pm on a Saturday. Pleasant service though. Nice vibe.

This was an awesome property with the absolute best staff! From the restaurant to the front desk, they were helpful and eager to please! My only two downsides to this entire stay was the view from my room was directly into another building. And there is no muffling of the noise. You can hear everything from the halls to the other rooms. Overall, this was an excellent stay!
