My husband and a friend stayed there for a fishing trip and they thought it was wonderful. Drove by at several times, but never stayed there. Will put that in our list of places to stay for the next time.

Loved the convenience to the train station and the free shuttle service around town. The front desk staff, Shakita (hopefully that’s correct), was amazing! So accommodating. We would definitely stay there again.

It was clean and affordable. It is an older motel but don’t let that discourage you. Clean rooms and the beds were okay. The staff however were great to offer assistance and resolve any problems. I would recommend this place. Close to the downtown if walking.

Basic motel that is close to train station and the tour boats. Could use an update, towel rack and other fixtures were broken. Bathroom is super small. Overall the motel served its purpose for the night. Conviennent to the upper part of Seward and easy walk to downtown

What a Dump!

What a dump! Booked through hotels.com for 2 rooms and the rooms were in separate buildings. Place was very old and dirty. 1 room you had to walk past the dumpster to get to and not safe at all.

There was no staff to check in with. The property looks like a construction zone, with holes in the wall and the heat did not work. The TV did not work either. Would not recommend.
