Windows on the outside were broken and covered with scotch tape. There were chips from previous guests on the floor and the laminate flooring was not cleaned. Beds were very lumpy and pillows were as hard as bricks. The staff was nice but the property needs some work.

It was small but somewhere to stay for the time being. Quite a bit of noisy people that pass by. I believe most of them were homeless.

Big Belly, Bad Attitude
The room and facility alone were fine; also the evening staff mostly was decent. Daytime representative (pregnant female), however, was terrible. Worst attitude imaginable, is in dire need of an attitude adjustment. These things have an impact on one's overall experience, and in this case it is resulting in me rating this property with two stars instead of four. Hopefully I will never need to travel to Anchorage again, but if I do it is unlikely that I will stay at Puffin Inn again.
