Always an great hotel to stay in while in Anchorag
Our "Go To" hotel when traveling to Anchorage for overnight or multiple days. Shuttle to and from ANC airport makes overnight stays easy. Puffin Inn "main building" rooms are always very clean and beds are excellent! Staff is professional and friendly.

6/10 Good

Great place to stay!
Nice place but lots of homeless people around the area that make it unsafe and only seen one or two cops in the are, a larger police force in the area would make the area safe. Every one was nice and keep to them self, just keep in mind great for people looking for a nice place to stay but not so much if you have a family you need to keep tabs on lol.

Sleep and go!
I really wanted to give this hotel a good review, but the guests next door and upstairs were rowdy and noisy. Other than that, I have no complains. It was a nothing special hotel, public transportation nearby. Good enough to sleep and go
