Beautiful place and I would stay there again. Couple of things... we could hear everything the upstairs neighbor did. Also, it is a self check in place and we did not get a message about how to do that.

Large clean room. Very comfortable bed. A couple miles out of town but very convenient. Ask for a room on the first floor. No elevator and I am too old to lug suitcases up a long flight of stairs.

We enjoyed our stay. We got there and realized our room was upstairs. Since they had a first floor room, they switched our room. The room we ended up in (#124) was wonderful. It looked new, was clean, and had an electric fireplace. It’s close to Exit Glacier and the amenities of Seward. Would definitely stay there again.

Great location, clean and new property with easy check in/check out procedures and had a coffee shop on property. Some opportunities for improvement were that there was no AC (which is typical for this area, but windows did open just not in a way where felt the room would be secure to leave them open), had multiple holes in the sheets (but the comforter and bed were quite comfortable), and only had one tiny bottle of shampoo/conditioner 2:1 and didn’t have more when we asked the housekeeper for some. Overall a good stay and hope to check it out again on our next trip to Seward.
