My Place Hotel-Anchorage, AK

Location: Convenient location near the airport is frequently highlighted, making it easy for travelers. Also close to many restaurants and grocery stores

Stayed here for 21 days. A few small positives, but overall, it's clear this place is run by someone more interested in cutting costs than taking care of guests. The Good: Staff were incredible No roaches or bed bugs (Only reason I didn't give it 1 star). Built-in bottle opener in the kitchen. Simple, but appreciated. Onsite laundry is available. The Bad: Strict check-in policy - They wouldn't let me check in 30 minutes early. Not a huge ask, but they stuck to the rulebook like robots. No flexibility, no interest in making things easy for guests. Toilet constantly leaks and refills - You'll hear it dripping and refilling all day and night. Refrigerator is loud and always running - Sounds like it's trying to launch. Room won't hold heat - Heater runs constantly, but the temp swings back and forth. It also makes a moaning/whining sound every time it shuts off. Kitchen with no dishes - Full kitchen, but nothing to cook with. No pans, plates, utensils, nothing. Had to go back out and buy my own after already bringing groceries in. No warning ahead of time. Uncomfortable pillows and a terrible desk setup - Bad for sleeping or working. Blackout curtains don't seal to the window - Light pours in around the edges. Cold tap runs hot first - Takes 15-20 seconds of hot water before any cold comes out. Keycard access is unreliable - Doesn't always work, sometimes takes multiple tries. One day, it failed completely while I was stuck outside with groceries. Even the main entrance needs a key card - So people checking in are often stuck outside waiting for someone to notice. Laundry machines require quarters, but the front desk doesn't have any - Was told to go to a store and ask for change. That's the system. Housekeeping is a joke - They claim it's every 4 days, but in 21 days I only had service twice--once because I asked for it. There's a spot on the key card envelope where they're supposed to note your cleaning schedule, but no one filled it out. Internet is nearly useless - Got 800kbps when it actually connected. Used my phone's hotspot instead. Bottom Line: On paper, this place checks a lot of boxes. In practice, almost everything is half-done or broken. It's a classic case of cutting every corner possible to boost profits, with no thought given to the guest experience. Won't be back.

Clean hotel worst beds in the country, period. Never have I ever seen such broken down mattresses. I definitely DO NOT recommend this place. Its extremely overpriced due to the fact they don’t have nice beds. Whats the point in paying $455 for one night just to have to sleep on the floor? Makes me feel like a true American to get ripped off and and then have to sleep on old hotel carpet on the floor. Worst hotel stay ever. To be honest id rather navigate the sex workers roaming the hallways at Motel6, atleast their beds aren’t so broken…stained yes but not broken.
