More like an airbnb, used the microwave (in common space) to heat the leftovers from the dinner. A 24 hr diner is within 5 minutes walking distance. Big bathroom, a nice lighted decent sized room with blackout curtains to keep the midnight sun away. The host Danny was friendly, he even helped me with one of my suitcases up the flight of stairs (all rooms are upstairs).

A bit congested/narrow alley way outside the rooms. Not much around the area in terms of restaurants, grocery stores, shops etc. Did not affect me much as I was staying the night there just to catch a morning flight the next day.

My husband and I wanted a safe place for me to stay while I commuted for school. Great staff/manager (Ilseong (일성)?) who were friendly. Felt very safe for a solo female student. Shared kitchen, clean rooms, plug-ins for winterized vehicles, manager easily contactable, good enough internet for work/play/communication. Deluxe room is good for a couple or a small family, single room is perfect for a solo traveler or a couple. Good distance from campus and town as well. Great price for a place I think is better than Pike's or the Hamilton! You're not paying for fancy furniture, you're paying for a comfortable and clean place. I and anyone else I know will come here if someone needs to stay some time in Fairbanks. It is not a tourist attraction place, which is nice for me (Alaskan resident). Please note, pictures are of deluxe room (only one room picture, it has two).

Road noise was not a big problem, as I brought earplugs. Earplugs may be needed if you're a light sleeper, but it wasnt too bad. Once again, not a tourist trap or oriented for an alaskan theme, so if you are out of state, you may want something more "authentic".

The attention was really nice. They even shared one day their breakfast with us, and keep the area with some snacks and drinks. The place has the basic, a lot of restaurants nearby with an affordable price.

The cleaning in our bathroom could be better

The Best thing ever was that I was arriving in the Fairbanks area after my aircraft was put on the mechanical disability list and I will be arriving at the hotel 5 hours later than I thought... the hotel was a good at adjustment to accommodate the delay and the arrival was handled by the hotel and staff .

The outside noise is not working well when trying to relax.

Owner was extremely friendly and accommodating. I had a late check-in (midnight) and he stayed up to assist me with my room. Rooms were clean and as expected, and showers were hot.
