This place was so adorable and cozy. The location was perfect, we were able to walk to restaurants (Highly recomend The Flamingo for dinner) and the Rowdy Radish downstairs was great for coffee and breakfast. The building is obviously old, but it added a neat charm. The owners were very good with communication and very helpful. (Shoutout to CS!) Wonderful place, highly recommend. Will definitely stay again someday!

It was a turn of the century building that fit our needs quite well. There was no bedroom and the doors were quirky, but the claw foot tub and comfy bed and futon were welcome. The history of the place was palpable.

Our flat was well-appointed, comfortable and clean. It was right downtown and convenient to shops, restaurants, and everything else we needed. We were travelling with 7 people total and we fit just fine. The two futons in the living room did the trick for us for an overnight stay.

The number 1 suite is great! It has whatever you need for an enjoyable stay. Fresh coffee, and all kinds of soap is what I care about and got! The place is vintage and I can appreciate such a place. If you like modern day first class I would say go elsewhere.

This place is adorable! When you walk in, the decor takes you back to 1930. The code entry was flawless. I was needlessly concerned the codes wouldn't work, because that has happened to me before, at a different location.

We stayed in the Days End room. The room is adorable with a little kitchenette. It is perfect for one person. The building is old, so everything creaks. That makes it tough not to wake up your companion if you are going to be moving around the place while they are sleeping. Overall, it was a charming and clean place.

Large apartment style room. Full-size kitchen with cooking and serving ware. Clean and Comfortable. Away from the cruise liner and pier traffic. Right in the middle of downtown Seward. Parking is a bit of a hassle being downtown. Highly recommend.

The rooms were clean and the bed was comfortable- linens provided were clean and plentiful. We didn’t use the kitchen but it had the necessities. There is a bit of a musty odor- air fresheners tried to mask it but they were too strong for someone with sensitivities to scent. Otherwise good location and cafe close by was very good!

Location was great....easy to walk to shops, restaurants, aquarium and stroll along waterfront trail. We stayed in the Wilderness Suite. Great having a kitchen, nice den area. However, if you plan on anyone sleeping on the futon in the den be aware it is hard a brick. Also double check to make sure linens are in the room for futon....we discovered very late our first frst night there were no linens. Also, as noted by others, it is an old building which we liked, but if you are looking new motel feel, this is not your place.
