8/10 Good

Close to everything in Seward town. Nice clean, but older property. We were on the 1sr floor which got some noise from outside. But it’s a great economical and convenient place to stay.
Rachel, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Comfortable clean rooms with friendly staff in walkable downtown location.
Doug, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Unbeatable location, downtown, walkable to everything. The shower was excellent, with almost immediate hot water. However, the “ queen bed” seemed to really be a double bed, and the mattress was way too soft and it needs to be replaced. Helpful, friendly staff.

The location of the hotel is very convenient in downtown, the staff was very helpful, although management seems disorganized. The building is historic yet recently updated and comfortable. Our stay was very nice and i would stay there again.

Great, historic property. Very clean and welcoming and the room was nice. I would give it a 5 but the bed was very hard and we didn’t sleep well - and that’s why we were there - so overall great experience but wow, the bed not so much .
