Older property but clean and convenient for one night stay before catching ferry from Valdez. Price was higher than I expected for property and area but due to short tourist season I understand this is how it goes. Front desk staff was kind and friendly.

Not many options to choose from - Valdez is amazing and wherever you stay you will be happy as long as you get out there and explore! This hotel was decent - pretty clean, but older and a bit musty smelling. Breakfast was good, shower sounded like it was going to explode but was hot and did the job. Great location - definitely over priced for the type of hotel it is.

When we pulled up to this hotel, I was afraid that we made a big mistake. It is old and not well cared for on the outside. We checked into our room and were pleasantly surprised. Everything was very clean and I working order. Nice sheets and comforter. We had a pleasant stay. Hot breakfast, nothing fancy , but good.
