It was a decent place to stay at. The walls are very thin and you can hear everything. We were on the 1st floor and we can hear when people were moving upstairs.

Nice/Decent Stay
Layne, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This hotel has a great location on the Valdez harbor and is adjacent to the main areas of town. The rooms were comfortable and functional. The nicest aspect of the hotel was the casual and friendly vibe. The staff were friendly, helpful and sociable. The hotel had a rustic ambiance. There was a decent common area and nice breakfast. It didn't have a guest laundry or exercise room, but the location made up for that. Overall, this was a good stay.

The hotel is at nice location. The bed is ok but bed sheets are very thin. What bothers me most is that the bath tub is completely clogged.
