This was a very nice historic hotel with nostalgic decor and pleasant staff. There were many supplies including an extremely delightful smelling body wash. The only thing that could have made it better is if they had a handheld shower head.

I loved my stay at this property! I drive up to Skagway intended to catch my ferry the next day. The lady that owns the place greeted me warmly and promptly. This was the perfect place to relax after my long drive through the Yukon. Its very walkable to downtown Skagway, where I could wander and shop. The property was beautiful where everything was taken care of. This was just want I needed before continuing my journey.
