Charming, charming, charming.
I had such a good experience! The one queen room was cozy, clean, and had a lovely private bathroom-what a luxury! The vibe was peaceful, and being just a short stroll away from local coffee shops and the harbor made it even better.
would recommend 🥰🌟

The location was ideal for our family with two girls, allowing us to easily explore the surrounding area. We enjoyed local activities like hiking, which the kids loved! The hotel also holds a unique charm, adding to our Alaskan adventure.
My kids wished there were better family accommodations. A private bathroom would have been more comfortable for the girls.

The location is brilliant, making it easy to walk to nearby attractions like the sealife center and local parks. I appreciated the unique character of the decor, which truly gave a glimpse of history. The shared facilities were clean and accessible, although the room itself had some issues, such as a dirty toilet seat and a crack in the sink. Despite these hiccups, the staff was very friendly and allowed us to check in early, which was a plus.
