Despite being 24 hour desk service there were times when no one was there. I witnessed a woman who was clearly high get kicked out for bringing too many people to her room the go shoot up on the curb by the parking lot. Entirely too many loiterers and i dont even want to get started on the rooms. Just don't stay here.

Tired but clean

Pretty tired building inside and out, but clean at least. Facilities basic. Fine for a short stay but wouldn't want to spend much time there. Cheapest place I could find in Anchorage but double what I'd pay for such a place anywhere else

Properly is a dump, old, dirty and in a unsafe area. Beds have springs poking out. If you want to experience staying in "Flop House" Econo Inn Anchorage AK should be your choice. EXPEDIA HAS LOST MY BUSINESS.

Poorly maintained property

the others) Big mistake - Econo Inn with a lot of homeless around - Reserved a room with 2 double beds - she gave us one with 1 double bed - She gave us a room (115) with two double beds - She allowed only one room key - There was no A/C, the outside window had a bent wire holding it partially closed and the toilet was stopped up - She switched us to room 215 - everything worked. However, due to the one key rule, one of us had to stay in the old room while the other made multiple trips up stairs - there is no elevator. - When I went to inspect Room 215 before moving in a man, who was either high or drunk, was demanding loudly to get into the room next door. He had a square plastic “patch” below his right ear. - When I came back to the room with my first load of stuff he was gone. - However, when I came back up with my second he was opening the door with a key (so much for the one-key-per-room rule). Again, he was conversing loudly with the room’s occupant - When Ed and I came up with our remaining paraphernalia he was in the room taking with the inhabitants(s), loudly. Telling him/them “You don’t belong here. You’re just a guest!” - From our “new” room Ed could keep an eye on his truck down in the parking lot. There was a dumpster near it. A girl was dumpster diving - her legs sticking up out of the dumpster. After a bit she emerged with an ice cream tub and a spoon. There’s more but the word limit is reached.
Ground floor, exterior window won’t close. Semi-closed with a wire.

This place is not for tourists.

I arrived late around 12-1a, there were many people walking in and out of hotel that looked homeles. I waited in lobby for 10 minutes before the person on duty finally told the guy standind mumbling at frontdesk window to move from window. The night staff was not helpful and didnt finish checking me in as her shift ended. So I waited another 10 min before a lady said have you neen helped. I told her I think you were checking to see if my room was ready. She then snapped at me and said oh i didn't know. Well its ready but we only have a wash cloth for you for towels. I was exhausted from a day of travel so i went to room a handicap room (Im not handicap).there was no window accept in the bathroom. It did indeed have one clean washcloth, which was the only clean item in the room. I slept with the light on fearing bugs would come out in the dark. Slept on top of the comforter and in my clothes. I did not feel safe or clean and knew I'd be checking out first thing in the morning i was not going to stay 6 more nights in this halfway house/inn/motel. I do not recommend.
