Basic but comfortable

If you just need a clean comfortable room for a night and prefer somewhere quiet near the forest rather than in the centre of town this would be a good choice. It’s just a bed, kitchen and bathroom but there are laundry facilities on site.

Everything we needed for our Sitka stay. Just a short walk to two food trucks, a pizza place located inside a brewery, and a gas station convenience store. Easy walk to town through the Sitka National Historic Park; the trail wanders through lush temperate rainforest. If you are scent-sensitive, please note that a plugin air freshener is used in the apartment.

Super convenient location to go up or down island. We used car rental option and had three great extra days in Sitka. Nothing fancy but excellent welcome, communication and local insights.
