The Breakfast menu was a real bonus in getting your day started, the Airport shuttle was so incredibly convenient, and the staff were all absolutely wonderful -- especially, Danielle. The Golden North Inn was, as far as I am concerned, the best deal in town for staying in Fairbanks!

From start to finish this was a wonderful stay. Although the accommodations are a bit outdated, they are clean and convenient. The staff is amazing. The shuttle from the hotel to the airport is a little under 10 minutes. Requesting a shuttle is very easy and the service is great. The breakfast is nice in that it stays open for multiple hours and offers a wide variety of food items. Should I have the opportunity to return to Fairbanks I would book here again. Thank you for an enjoyable stay.

The room was old but very well kept, cozy, warm, and extremely clean. No bad smells and not musty at all. the customer service was wonderful, and when our tire went flat and we had to stay longer than expected, they responded with kindness. For being an inn, it met and surpassed our expectations.
