The motel is reasonable and clean but rundown. We found ourselves changing light bulbs and tightening screws everywhere. the rooms were so hot and wouldn't cool down (a ceiling fan would help) and then there is the constant sun light issue so you either try to sleep in day light with out privacy (windows and curtains open) or you shut... more

My husband and I just returned from almost a 3-week trip to Alaska to visit their national parks. We stayed at the Eagle River Motel on two separate occasions in June. I chose this hotel after reading reviews and it was so much less expensive than the hotels in Anchorage. This is just a basic room and quiet enough. Bring... more

Stayed here instead of Anchorage before my flight home. Not bad, the lobby was a bit cramped - room was on the top floor which I don't mind but there was a big dog barking in the window as I walked by - looks like someone was living there permanently. Fortunately I did not hear the dog after that. The... more

We paid $181 for the REALLY Nice Sheraton in Anchorage at the end of our trip and paid $156 at the Eagle River Motel at the beginning of the week at Eagle River. For $25 less there were HUGE differences! On the plus side: 1. it was clean, 2. it included a mini kitchen and 3. had two pull out... more

Staff was very helpful and very friendly. Motel was nice and clean not luxurious but decent. Again its a MOTEL NOT A HOTEL! Highly recomended. more

I have been using this motel for a number of years, during the Iditarod. It is clean and roomy, without Anchorage prices and the noise of the city. While large enough to offer more than the accommodations one would expect for a modestly priced property, the additional attention by the on site owner/manager makes it more like coming home than... more

Positives: 1. Clean budget motel, spacious rooms. 2. Free wireless internet 3. Stove/refrig/microwave/coffee in room. 4. Free satellite TV (if it works -- see below) Cautions: 1. Bring your earplugs: a. Wood frame construction means you hear every step in the room above. b. No elevator; End rooms hear every step on up/down stairs c. Room AC via open windows... more

We were a big party - 10 people including 3 children, and we wanted to save on the hotel costs since we were only going to be there to sleep. This place was our first stop in Alaska and we landed late in the night (technically early in the morning) for a three night stay. The staff was really nice... more

The room was large and very clean. Also was quiet. Fridge, microwave, and coffe maker included. Some rooms have kitchenettes. The location is about 20 minutes from Anchorage. Great bargain compared to Anchorage hotel prices in the summer months. Don't let the outside keep you away. We spent little time in the room, so weren't looking for a 5 star... more
