Inside is not what you would expect when walking up…more of an ol’ fashion ambiance inside. Rooms were clean, afternoon/evening staff were helpful & polite. Great lounge and great restaurant onsite.

6/10 Good

My experience may be isolated, but perhaps worthy of sharing. We arrived around 2am, exhausted from traveling, and had a 5:30am commitment. When we arrived we merely pushed on the room door and it opened. The door latch was broken, not fully engaging into the door jamb. So we tried the dead bolt and it did not work at all. The night staff had no solution so we slept with a chair securing the door shut. Just a little uncomfortable for us, but it turned out alright. The dead bolt was fixed the next day. After a cold, rainy day fishing excursion the next day, we returned to the hotel room anticipating a nice hot shower. We were disappointed to learn the water was luke warm-to cool, at best. But what I think relevant is that we were told the room temperature was dictated by how much hot water was used by the hotel restaurant. Of the four days we stayed, we had only one hot shower. Not the end of the world, but a little disappointing. Outside of this, the environment was safe and quiet, and the town was pleasant. The beds were comfortable, too.

Uptown Mid
Motel has a nice Alaskan lodge feel to it. Old styled decor and apparently an attached restaurant that is popular among locals. Friendly front desk clerks. We had booked a room with 2 beds but none were available so they gave us two rooms with single bed. That was a nice gesture . They didn’t make two grown men sleep in one bed. Amenities of fridge and microwave. Only thing wrong was that the shower didn’t work . The diverter lever from bath to shower was broken. Quiet environment

Good value. Very comfortable.
The rooms are small, but adequate. The front desk staff was great. We stay there every year for one night prior to a fishing trip on the Kenai River.

Stay here! Clean and comfortable!
*If Hotels.com says they are full, call to confirm. The Uptown was not our first pick hotel, just based on the outside appearance, but no other hotels within our price range were accepting reservations at 1 AM (we had been dipnetting until after midnight) so we decided to give it a try. We were so glad we did! Ignore negative reviews. Our room was immaculate, comfortably set up, and had adequate supplies for our needs. Front desk staff were friendly and helpful, and the older style of the interior decor was solid and classy. We especially loved the real wood trim, interior doors, etc, and the old style brass key for our room, instead of a key card. We stayed two nights in two different rooms: first a basic double queen, second a king suite with a jacuzzi. Both were excellent! (Pictures are of the king suite.) We had breakfast at the restaurant downstairs the next morning and it was every bit as good as the room. We LOVED the decor and the service and food were excellent. (Be warned, however, if you hate hunting and can't stand to see animal mounts, you probably won't like this restaurant!) We enjoyed our stay so much that when we finished fishing the next day, there was no question in our minds where we would stay the night. *When we tried to book our second night's stay through hotels.com, we received an error saying that they were full or only accepted reservations for more than one night's stay. This was not true. If you receive a similar notice, call the motel!
