Microtel Inn & Suites by Wyndham Anchorage Airport

The hotel I used for overnights

Positiv: Since I live in Alaska and go to the lower 48 often, I sometimes need a place to stay in Anchorage between flights. The Microtel is what I use for this. It is close to the airport, and cheaper than other places. Unlike the non-chain hotels, there are no surprises in the quality. The parking is free, and even though the rooms are small, their layout is kind of fun.

Negativ: The outbound shuttle schedule leave a bit to be desired, and it often takes about 15 minutes for inbound to arrive. The free breakfast isn't impressive, but I often miss it because I leave at odd hours. There is only one elevator and it is slow.

Positiv: Very helpful staff, convenient and timely shuttle service, much nicer than the Hilton downtown, and half the price
