Sheraton Anchorage Hotel
The hotel was undergoing some renovations. The TVs were not working on either night of my stay. If the TVs had been Smart TVs connected to the internet, the issue could have been avoided. It's difficult to say what the rating would be after the renovations.

I had made a reservation online and wasn't able to check in until late. When I checked in they told me that they had given away my room because they were first come first serve. They were able to get me in a different room. There was no remote for the TV.
