I stayed here multiple times without major issues. The shuttle to the airport with friendly drivers is a major plus. The rooms are decent and clean - for the most part, fortunately - the cleaning staff forgot about a small thrash in the bathroom which I noticed upon check in, late in the evening and told the receptionist upon check out the next morning. For the price it's a definitely place to stay if you need a nights rest between your flights/driving.

I called fthe Alex Hotel requesting a shuttle to the hotel as soon as I landed, and was told ithat it was on its way and would be there shortly. After 45 minutes of countless unanswered calls to the hotel, the receptionist answering the phone told me that the driver never got the message and he was on his way. He arrived 30 minutes later, offering no apology or reason for the delay. When I arrived at the hotel, I stood at the front desk for 15 minutes, while the receptionist was on the phone, chatting it up with someone, before she acknowledged my presence and checked me in. The room was fine but no working thermostat to regulate the temperature. The continental breakfast was satisfying and the morning shuttle bus driver was present, available and ready to take me the airport at my request.

They have two buildings, each with 3 floors, elevator in one of the building did not work, so yes, we have to carry our big luggage all by ourself on stairs. The room they provided was not cleaned prior to our arrival, infact we arrived late. We saw food particles on the table and floor. No fridge, no microwave and some lights were not working. Clearly they are working on the second building, they are not professional enough not to have guest in that building during the renovation.

This hotel worked for our last minute stay, but it clearly has it's best days in the rear view mirror. The shuttle to the airport was good. The breakfast was so-so. Imagine our surprise to see someone being removed from the premises in handcuffs by the local police.

I would not recommend.
It appears money was used to make the lobby look good. The rooms were another story. Pipes in the shower were shoddy. and bathroom sinks were old and low. It was supposed to be a kitchen unit but there was no stove. There was a microwave and fridge, but they were stacked in a corner and not plugged in. Another guest brought a cup with a bedbug down to the desk. The hall and room did not smell great. Two elevators but one wasn't working.

Appreciated the shuttle service from the airport.but not so much the hotel stay. Elevator floor was filthy. Hallway areas had a distinct bad odor. Restaurant was the breakfast area with limited menu of Chinese food and hamburger type options. Rate was high for what was provided. Walked to a first class restaurant down the road for dinner and discovered that for only $50 more we could have stayed there. Overall we were disappointed with our hotel choice.

I stayed at the Alex because they had rooms available. The property is close to the Anchorage airport, and was comparatively, reasonably priced. Upon check-in I was greeted with a grunt from the receptionist. She barely spoke to me while preparing keys, and pointed in the general direction of the elevator. The lobby was dirty, the elevator was dirty and the carpets filthy. The room was clean, but 20 years out of date. The upside is convenient to the airport, plenty of restaurants, and you get the Anchorage crack house experience without having to find a crack house.

We enjoyed our stay at the Alex. The room was big and the bed was comfortable. It’s also very conveniently located close to the airport but doesn’t get jet noise. There are a few odd things about the place though. Only one elevator was working, and it was slow and clunky.
