This is a great property! Cute and homey with coffee and tea supplied daily. The only thing I would change are the beds. They are a little worn out and are full size. They really need to be queen size to sleep comfortably for two. Management is attentive to your needs and promptly sees to all your needs. I would recommend this property.

Loved this even before we arrived because the reach out to welcome us for choosing to stay was full of information and recommendations. The room was cozy and comfortable. Loved the sustainable actions, coffee cups, glassware, utensils, etc. made it homey. I had a glass of wine at night on the patio and coffee in the morning! Hope to have another opportunity one day to stay again and I’d stay longer!! Thank you for having us!

Traveling with my daughter and young grandchildren I did not feel safe. I could hear the conversations and TV in neighboring rooms. I reached out immediately to share my concerns with building management. No resolution was given, very disappointing. The photos are deceptive.

Room was clean overall and the bathroom had plenty of soap, shampoo, and conditioner. Pull out futon was okay, somewhat uncomfortable; flat sheet had a few tiny stains. Room had a box fan and portable heater. Didn’t meet any management. Communication like check in/out was done over text. Building and room codes worked when we arrived. Room included a helpful binder with info about the area. A great budget-friendly place to stay when in Seward.
