The hotel was very nice and in a great location. It was only a two min walk to all the restaurants and the Sealife Center. The room was very nice and clean and Paulette at the front desk was very nice and gave us some great restaurant recommendations. Would highly recommend this hotel and we will definitely stay here again the next time we visit

The room was cute and clean (as pictured). The staff was very friendly and helpful. The location is optimal for visiting the Sealife Center, shopping, and dining options. It is a short walk to the waterfront. It is not located near the Seward boat harbor, but during peak season there is a trolley that stops near the hotel.

Paulette who manages this hotel goes out of her way to provide the best customer service! She gave us great advice and even lent us bear spray to stay safe while hiking. All staff was great too. Hotel is in a good location and just a block away from a bunch of restaurants, the Sea Life Center, and the waterfront.
