Awesome property at an amazing river side location. The hotel has lots of game options and the Restaurant/Bar has a pool table which we enjoyed playing during our stay. Highly recommended!!

It was perfect for us. Our room was clean, the staff were welcoming and so very helpful. The location was close to town. Then you had the trail behind the inn to the river and if you’re lucky you can see the mountain. (We were).

Staff were kind and quite helpful. Common area with tables and free hot drinks was nice. The room was small but adequate. The walls were thin and noise was an issue one night (earplugs were provided). Reasonable budget alternative.

Good value and location in Talkeetna
The hotel was within walking distance of downtown, but it was quiet. (We didn't hear the band playing in the downtown park.) The hotel provided coffee in the lobby, but no formal breakfast. There was a bar and the Batman was kind enough to provide ice. Our room was small, but adequate.

Dated but seems typical of Alaska
The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The room was very small for 2 adults with 3 suitcases. The view of the river and mountains was wonderful. I am glad we did not select the courtyard view since the courtyard was a dark hallway between the individual unit entries on either side. Great place for the price. The heater was adequate for the 45 degrees from last night, but it may be weak on colder nights.

A hidden gem
This place is a gem. It is right on the river and out of the busy part of Talkeetna but still within a short walk of all the restaurants and downtown. The staff are amazing and the room was very comfortable.

Motel is Neat, clean and quiet but cramped.
This is an older place and pretty tight quarters. No heat or A/C except for a wall heater and a fan. The single bed was comfortable just a little cramped. The folks were very nice and the area is beautiful, right on the river which was flooding while I was there. Not meant for anyone with physical issues. Town was very unusual.

Decent
Quite nice as motels go, clean, comfortable but would have preferred two double beds rather than one huge one and a single. Nice location. Far more expensive than I'd usually pay for any hotel but not much option in Talkeetna

The place was cozy. Everything is near by. There is a bar and a heard that it can get rowdy but when we were there it was quiet with an older crowd.
