The customer service was absolutely amazing. There was a bit of miscommunication on the app, and booking needs. The assistance that we received from the lovely lady at the front desk, went above and beyond.

They only have one room available if you book through Hotels. Terrible, uncomfortable beds. Beds were listed as full size, they are single and very short. I slept better in the chair.
The hotel was empty, they could have given us a different room. This place is for sale, no wonder. I will never stay there again.

Use of a real metal key was quaint
Rooms are small
The adjoining restaurant seems more important than the hotel patrons.
Restaurant food was amazing!

We enjoyed the stay at Uptown as it provided many conveniences while on our fishing trip. Inviting, cleaning and safe. The on-site restaurant and bar were added pluses. The staff was friendly and very helpful.

Room was spacious and comfortable. Only questionable event was finding a handful of Frito chips on the the desk chair. Which means the chair was not moved and thus under the desk not cleaned. The room seemed clean otherwise. The bed was really comfortable.

The property is somewhat dated but not unexpected for the area. The restaurant was closed on Sunday night unfortunately.

Do not stay here! Very dirty. I don’t think the carpet had been cleaned in years. Sheets were dirty. No toilet paper and towels. When asked to get two towels they were hesitant. When she gave them to me she said they don’t match but they are clean! I did get some toilet paper!

We are a great ground floor room, located by the back door making it super easy to bring in luggage.
Hotel room was lovely, bed was very comfortable and an overall high standard.
Good nights sleep and nice coffee to wake up too!

excellent customer service and great restaurant

Overall the staff was very friendly and helpful. Due to lack of staffing (as many places are dealing with) there was no daily room cleaning or swapping out of towels (they were very quick to provide new towels if you went to desk though)

In desperate need of updating. No maid service for the room. Definitely not worth the money

When we first got there the tv was not working, had to call maintenance. We stayed two nights and the room was not refreshed with shampoo, soap, and coffee supplies. Room service got our order wrong. For $160 per night I would expect better.

First the room wasn’t cleaned until an hour and half after “check in” time, then receptionist let us wander around building 1 for 10 minutes before telling us that our room was in the second building. Our room once we finally found it was filthy…rocks in the bath tub, hairs in sink and ice bucket, the mirror had to have been wiped with a dirty rag. Television didn’t work except for one random station that played old rock ballads? Very weird. The couch was broken and sagging on one side, sconces all were hanging crookedly, curtains didn’t close fully because they were ripped. All around not a pleasant stay at all and definitely not worth the $198 we paid.

Room felt CLEAN, safe and ended up a great find for this area. Extremely outdated if compared to the lower 48, (can’t remember when I last was handed a KEY for my room)but charming old Alaska came through in a Clean way. Adjoining restaurant is fantastic and Room price was a bargain!

They gave away 2 of our 3 rooms even though we had prepaid. They tried to tell us we had only one reservation. We had to get very angry before they said well yes we do show you have three rooms. The clerk finally made two more rooms appear when I asked to talk to the owner. The other two rooms were smaller and lesser quality and we were not offered a refund or discount. Worse experience ever!

Very courteous and helpful staff.
