Parking was a little challenging, but this place met our needs. Nothing fancy. Just a clean place to get a good night’s sleep before hitting the road again.
A great stay: clean, comfortable, and walking distance to food, shops, and attractions. The owners are responsive and allowed us to leave our rental car in lot while we were on a jeep tour. Loved the view of the mountains outside our window!
Of course, lodging so close to the park is expensive, and this basic, but comfortable, property is no exception. The location is great. The staff was friendly and helpful.
One of the beds had such a deep divot that it was uncomfortable to sleep in.
The property was a little rustic, but quite satisfactory and clean. The best part of this stay was the staff. Jace was a fountain of useful information, giving us the lay of the land, from what there is to do, timing and the best way to get there. He picked us up at the train station when we arrived and delivered us back there at the end of our stay.
Jace was very helpful and outstanding. He met us at train depot and helped with logistics for our short visit. Convenient access and availability for activities, food amd gifts
No bells and whistles here but it’s a clean property very close to Denali national park and has a lot of breakfast and lunch/dinner options within walking distance.

Stayed two nights, it was okay. Our room was located on the 2nd floor, spacious enough for two people. Close proximity to the park. However, there are no elevators. Walls are thin and you can hear music from the business downstairs but not a big issue if you're out during the day as they shut the music down in the evening around 9. Front desk was helpful.
Everything was easy! Their shuttle took me from and to the train station. A short walk across the street was another free shuttle to and from the Denali Visitor Center. Motel is located on the boardwalk with several restaurants and gift shops. Room was clean.
The staff was very accommodating and picked us up at the train station. The office closed at 8pm but we made it in time. It is located next to many shops and restaurants. Overall a good experience for a short trip to visit Denali NP.
Perfect location near all the restaurants and shops. Clean rooms and friendly staff. Lower prices with excellent location. Very old motel but worked well for our family. Directly across from the Denali Princess and Holland America lodges.
This is a great place to stay in Denali. It's right on the boardwalk. So, it's close to all kinds of different shops and restaurants. It doesn't have that overdone or overly commercial feel of the big resorts. The staff, especially the shuttle bus driver, we're so helpful and an absolute pleasure to interact with. I'd happily stay here again and recommend it anyone.
This was a great place to stay if you want to be close to shops, restaurants, activities and to Denali National Park. When you are in Alaska there is so much to see and do, so having a comfortable bed to sleep on at night is all that is important.
