All in all my stay at Totem Inn was very disappointing. We were checked in by a young Native American boy who was not interested in uttering any words. He did not even greet us or told us in which direction to go to our room. The only few words he did say were "Credit card?". I travel around a lot and have tried a huge variety of places to stay at and I would have a hard time remembering any where the attitude at the reception was so nonchalant. It seemed as if they were doing us a favor for letting us stay at their property. The room was cramped, there was very little space left to move around and to put our (small) bags. Although it looked rather new, the room was quite destroyed and not maintained. A metal piece of heater cover was dangerously sticking out towards the bed. The overall cleanliness was marginal. I could not say the room wasn't cleaned before our arrival, but it was done very negligently. We paid 115 USD for this room which is way too much for what we got. When I visit Denali again I will gladly give 20 or 30$ more and stay in a nicer and friendlier property.
