The outside could use a paint job, but don't let that fool you. This is a pretty cool historic place to stay. Interior is nice, beautiful lobby and parlor room to have a cup of coffee and a snack. Rooms have everything you need. You can kinda hear your neighbors through the ceiling and walls would be my only complaint. Would definitely stay here again.

Neat historic hotel, we had a great stay. The building is old and looks rough from the outside but rooms were fine. Our shower had a plumbing problem. The staff immediately had a repair person working on it and moved us to a new room. The staff was prompt and handled it great. It is right in downtown Seward so really nice to walk to the shops and aquarium etc. Lots of shops and restaurants very close by!

Room was clean and easy to access after hours. Halls were a bit noisy but not terribly noticeable from the room. Only complaint was room drapes barely covered the windows so they could use a refresh.

I've seen a lot of people razz on this property. Yes it is old and could use some maintenance. It does have character and was very comfortable for us to stay overnight. I would go back again. If you can't lug your luggage up a couple flights of stairs, maybe you should hit the gym. Have an adventure.
