I'm assuming the room was newly renovated and it was in immaculent condition. The breakfast is way better than the standard continental breakfast at other hotels.
John, 3-night trip

Staff is very nice and friendly, check in is smooth, breakfast is fine and included, for limited choices of accommodations in Valdez, this is nice place to stay for a night or two.

The owner and the staff were so kind, and they even helped us with the glacier reservation. Anyway, their kindness was just outstanding.

The room was dated but clean. The hotel is in a good location with free parking on site. We didn’t like the breakfast, it had limited healthy options.

Not at all fancy but comfortable for an overnight stay. Loved that we could park right in front of the room.
Suzanne, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Basic hotel but done well.

Stayed two nights with my family, good sized rooms (we had 2) clean and tidy though one room had no view to be delighted with,the other looked over a snow capped mountain and the street outside. Beds soft and comfortable. Breakfast was basic but good, coffee, hot chocolate and chilled water always available in the reception area. Very happy and exceeded expectations.
Nick, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great location, easy to walk to downtown business district and drive to ferry. Room is kind of old but still clean and has everything we need. Great choice with the price especially have breakfast. Will stay here next time.
WEI, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good location. Their breakfast is also good.
Jianliang, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

I wouldn't call this a hotel, it is definitely a motel with pretty standard breakfast buffet fare. While the facility is showing its age and doesn't have much by way of amenities, I will say the bed was very comfortable and I probably slept better there than anywhere else I stayed over my three weeks in Alaska. The location is also good, I could walk anywhere I wanted to visit
corie, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

I stayed the night with a friend and everything was perfect except for one little thing: when taking a shower, the water would, without warning, suddenly turn very hot, go back to normal, then turn ice cold. Other than this, the rooms were spotless, well maintained, and the service was excellent.
Scott, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Our stay was pleasant. You are only a couple of blocks waking distance to restaurants, food trucks, harbor and other activities. We felt safe walking. But beware, if you get a front room the traffic is very noisy. The double container trucks roll by all day and into the night. If you open the window you can't hear the TV. So bring ear plugs.

The building was a little worn on the outside, but the inside and rooms were very nice. Convenient to downtown Valdez. The breakfast was great!
