Very small size rooms. They are charging twice as much compared to others in area but providing two double beds in a very small room. Its very noisy as well since there is no soundproofing. I would not stay here again since the money paid is not worth at all for the quality and amenities provided, not to mention noise levels.

This was a great place. It was close to rhe National Park but had some amenities on site. We dis the dinner show and it was very entertaining. The rooms are a bit small but there is so much to do that being in your room hardly seems appropriate. Would stay here again.

Rooms are very small but functional. Highlight of the hotel is the proximity to Denali and river behind it. We did not eat at the property, instead went to Healy area. Thai truck across the street is good too.
