Colony Suites

Location: The accommodation is praised for its prime location in a quiet neighborhood, offering easy access to local attractions such as the Matanuska Glacier, while avoiding the busyness and higher prices of larger cities like Anchorage.

It was a very nice stay the only thing I would say is the lighting is too dim and I wish there were a couple extra towels other than that we had a very nice stay

We stayed for 11 nights during the Christmas holidays for relative visiting and general tourist-ing and had a great stay. The location is in an ultra-quiet neighborhood 2 blocks from downtown Palmer. Suite 12 had an excellent view of a snowy field, mountains and even the decorated Palmer water tower. There is very little traffic on the roads around the units. Palmer is a easy 50 minute drive from downtown Anchorage. Great central location for seeing the sights that is away from the big city. Suite 12 had everything we needed and was clean. No need to post shots since their website had mondo-pictures that were exactly as we received. There was enough kitchen utensils and pans to get us by, including the required pod coffee maker. The unit was clean with new appliances. The living room couch is a sleeper, so a family with kids would fit just fine. For the two of us it was excellent and the master bed was comfy. Both rooms had TV's with a plethora of viewing aps. We appreciated the apt size washer dryer compete with soap since sloshing thru the snow gets you wet. Since there is no maid service it is nice to freshen up the towels or sheets. The only negative is the washer is very noisy and the neighbors woke us up when we were trying to sleep in, one morning. It snowed several times during our stay, and the management kept the walk ways swept, which was appreciated. The units are ‘motel style’ with a roof covering most walkways. The path to our cars and trash was even cleared, which was no easy feat considering the snowfall received. They kept the brooms and shovels out so we could brush off our car easily.
