Clean, comfortable, and safe with an incredible view of Resurrection Bay! The location couldn’t have been better. It was within easy walking distance of restaurants, shops, and everything we wanted to see in Seward. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would happily book here again. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Great location. Walking distance to everything we wanted. Only negative was no hair dryer in our room. Could tell where it was supposed to be. Other rooms had one so must have just been ours. My husband went to the lobby to ask for one but no one was available. We would stay here again

An older motel that provided ok accomodations. Even with temps in the 50's, the rooms were very warm. Small room with no place for luggage. Staff was wonderful.

Close to good fishing across the street. 1 minute drive from where the tours take off for Kenai fjords NP. Room was run down. Huge cracks in the wall. Outdated appliances. The heater/Ac unit looks like it was made in 1955. Parking was good. If it was 60 dollars cheaper, I’d be alright with it but a little run down for the price.

Definitely needs to be deep cleaned, I.e., mold issues. Otherwise was relatively ok, a place to sleep before 6am fishing.

Clean, basic accommodation. Very old property and poorly maintained though clean and in a very safe and convenient area. If all you are looking for is a safe, clean place to sleep, this is fine. If you are expecting a nicer place, don’t book here. They were very nice and helpful and we were fine with the place though I feel it is very expensive for the quality of the space you are renting.

The room was very dingy. Very dated. Once we turned on the AC, the room had a bad odor. Definitely was not worth the $280. We paid for that room. It would’ve been more of a $95 room. I don’t think the bed is very comfortable either
