Motel 6 Anchorage, AK - Midtown
Staff were friendly. Oddly, no shampoo in the room. I think I could have asked, but didn’t want to be a bother.

Wyndham Garden Anchorage Airport
Receptionist that checked us in needs more training on customer service. Our room AC/heater was noisy when it turns on and the hot water on the bathroom needs improvement. You should have more ADA compliant rooms and equipments available. I was a little disappointed with our stay.
