Hotel is safe and secure. Very basic rooms where furniture carpet and bathroom are worn out. Window would not close completely. Ice machine on second floor broken. Would spend a little more next time for the Best Western. One night stay is tolerable.

Despite some bad reviews, we personally found this hotel to be very good! It was clean, the staff was great and we loved being next door to a wonderful pizza place. They offered a free continental breakfast, and there was sausage and eggs there, and bread/peanut butter jelly to make lunch! They offer a community frig where you can put your beverages, etc. My friend told me the hotel was built to house the workers of the Exxon Valdez oil spill then later turned into a hotel. Both tourists and workers stay there now. Would stay there again.

Good value if you’re “on the go” most of the time

Small rooms. Not much space to move about. Beds were comfortable. No issues with hot water. Water pressure was good. Self service laundry available. 1 shared frig to store an item or two. Microwave avail in breakfast room. This place was converted from office space into a motel. The heating is central. Can’t control temp from your own room so your window is your thermostat. Open/close. Valdez is small so everything is pretty much walking distance if you want it to be.

Room was clean but a little on the smallish side. More like a dorm room. No real view because the window faced to the inside of the complex. No a/c, but they did have a fan that could be placed in the window to cool the room. Hotel was easy to get to and had plenty of parking. Lots of things within walking distance.

Breakfast was included but never put out first day there of our 5 day stay. Other 4 days hot breakfast was available. Room was clean. We booked room with 3 beds for 3 people but every day except one we were only left 2 clean sets of towels and had to request a third at desk. Good price and nice to find three beds in one room but otherwise not someplace I would recommend to friends.

Decent if you just need a bed

This was the second time we stayed here in a month. This time we stayed in a double room which had a double bed and two twin beds. It is a small room, but met our needs for the one night we were there. If you are just looking for a place to sleep after spending your time around town, this is a decent option. Breakfast was the same as last month: eggs, sausage, toast cereal and coffe/tea.

I was looking for a bed and a shower on this trip. All other lodging options in Valdez this time of year (August) charge a premium. This place worked out great and since it was only a place to sleep, I didn't need anything fancy. As other guests have noted, there isn't much in the way of soundproofing so you can hear your neighbors quite well. It didn't cause any issues for me though earplugs are recommended if you have sensitivity to sounds. The place is showing its age but is maintained well and was clean. I liked the fact it had a guest laundry so I could was my clothes and reset for the rest of my trip. The breakfast is nothing fancy, but again, there was enough there to start the day and there really isn't a breakfast place in town anyway. Great location in town and walkable to anything you need to see in Valdez. I saw many folks there on motorcycle trips. Definitely a great option for riders! I easily recommend this place to anyone looking for a low-budget option.
