Econo Inn, Anchorage

Bad service and rooms could of been cleaner. For another $30.00 a night, I could have stayed at Holiday Inn Express which had a fridge and microwave in the room.

The employees don't wear uniforms. Not even professional attire. When I checked in there was a gentleman wearing sweat pants and a stained shirt. The is no elevator. The building appears to be very old. The carpet doesn't match at all, some is green and then you'll come across a patch of blue carpet to mask which I can only assume was a stain. The continental breakfast consists of a 12 pack of muffins from costco-complete with the price tag on it. There was no coffee pot at breakfast so we had to keep going to the desk area and asking for refills. The building is so old that the electricity continuously went out. I was moved to a new room twice! No air conditioning in walls-just a portable fan on wheels that was useless. My room had no screen on the window-which opened onto the roof didn't even lock. The common area couches are stained and out of date, there is a Korean Airlines poster for decor, the building has an unusual stench...The manager isn't even on duty during business hours, the owner of the building speaks broken English,the shuttle driver reaked of alcohol and the maintenance man was rude and what little english he did speak was just rude banter. As I was checking in I asked to use the restroom-upon entry I turned around. It is a unisex room with a urinal that reeks, no paper towels, mis-matched broken tiles, and grafiti on the walls. No modern conveniences, no internet, no irons, poor phone lines. The only good thing about this place is the Japanese restaurant attached to it called Dami. Save your cash and stay at Days Inn.
