What guests think

Across many reviews, Eagle River Microtel is described as a basic, budget option with friendly staff and convenient highway access, but recurring complaints focus on cleanliness problems, dated rooms, and inconsistent maintenance that can affect comfort.

Rooms are often small with minimal in-room equipment, limited temperature control (frequently no AC), and noticeable noise from traffic or other guests. Breakfast is a simple continental spread that many find limited, and parking can be tight with uneven or icy areas. Expect a no-frills stay suited to short, budget-focused visits.

The hotel was clean and comfortable. Parking can be pretty full at times. The breakfast is OK, but there is only one 2 slice toaster that is pretty slow. The breakfast is mostly waffles, pancakes, bagels, etc that need to be heated. A line forms quickly for its use. There is a microwave, but it is not great for properly heating these items. Need to have more capacity such as 4 slice toaster and /or more of them.

The property is rundown and dated. They offer very limited service such as only changing linens and taking out garbage every few days. The continental breakfast was a joke. No fruit or yogurt. A shared gallon of milk and styrofoam cups for coffee. The doors on the ends are left ajar and provide no security. Not enough lighting around the hotel and potholes. The televisions are very hard to figure out with 2 controllers and no instructions. NO A/C and no control for the heater. It seemed to be run by teenagers with little customer service. Our keycards did not work the second night. When I went down to have them re-coded, they did not ask for any ID.

Nice hotel overall. Parking not the best. The occupants in the room next to me were a bit noisy. Kept me awake until after midnight. They had a do not disturb sign hung on the door, yet people kept knocking on thei door until after midnight.

The parking lot hasn’t been plowed all winter, just packed in making a giant, thick sheet of ice. The check-in process was smooth after someone finally came to the desk. A surprise to us was that they leave all to unoccupied rooms doors ajar, which we had never seen. However, even with the opportunity for the room to air out, we were still hit with a pungent smell when we walked in. Upon further inspection of the room we found “interesting” stains everywhere. The couch and chairs had stains all over. Even the wall had “yellow” stains, those we didn’t discover until we were packing up. The sounds of dogs barking all night and loud TVs made sleep pretty hard to get.

Smallest hotel room we’ve ever stayed in. It said we had a queen size bed but it definitely was not a queen size bed. Sheets were stained. No iron. Dingy towels. Toilet seat fell off. My Husband had to fix it. The sink didn’t work properly. The TV was up on a dresser at a 45° angle with two remote controls, one to turn the channel, one for the volume. The room felt and looked dirty. The phone didn’t work. No one answered when you called the front desk. There was no blow dryer. I texted for a blow dryer when they sent me a text asking if I needed any additional amenities, text was never returned until eight hours later, telling me to pick the blow dryer up at the front desk. Breakfast consisted of cereal and toast nothing but carbohydrates. We will never return to this hotel, nor will we consider Wyndham in the future.

The walls and floors were filthy. The shower had three different types of hair on the wall (obviously not clean). We booked a room for four people but they only had sheets on one bed, 2 pillows and 2 towels. Service was slow. There wasn't enough breakfast for everyone. A few bagels, one toaster and 2 yogurts with 15 people down there trying to figure out what to eat. Also the curtains were broken and half hanging down, which didn't block the sun that's up almost all the time in June in Alaska.

A little disappointed in how many things were dirty and/or broken in the room. The walls and carpets had not been cleaned, there was debris on the carpet from lack of vacuuming, and the phone and fan had visible dust on them and were sticky. The door did not lock and there were only screw holes left where the inside lock had previously been. The ceiling fan and heater were visibly broken. No thermostat in the room. The one thing that seemed clean was at least the bedding, but even they had multiple stains. The tv did not work, would only sit stuck on a loading screen when trying to change to any channel. Wi-Fi was good.

This was dirty, lots of mold in the bathroom, dirt in the corners. The carpet looked like it had never been cleaned and was 50 years old. The bed was very uncomfortable and pillows giant. The fan had dust all over it. The worst part was the urine smell, it was just so disgusting.

The hotel is inexpensive and located about 20 minutes outside of Anchorage. It is definitely a no-frills place, looks kind of like an old rundown college dorm. We were there in June during unusually warm weather. Window seat cushions are stained, no air conditioning ( typical in Alaska), windows opened to provide cooler air but had no locking mechanism, a good bit of road noise. Linens were not changed or bathroom cleaned during a week’s stay. Overhead lighting did not work, though ceiling fan was nice. Ask for a hairdryer at the desk if you need one. Staff is friendly and continental breakfast is provided each day.

This is the most bare bones hotel room we have ever stayed in. No lamps on nightstands. Two pillows for queen bed. The toilet paper dispenser is too far away to reach it, so just took it off. Very noisy. No A/C so had to leave the window open. No fridge or microwave. Very small room. Disappointed. I knew it wouldn’t be the greatest room, but it was our 58th wedding anniversary and I was hoping for a little nicer.
