Pros:

这件海景房景色非常好,转角看两个方向的海景,但是床太小了,稍稍有点不方便

Cons:

没有热水,建议楼下放置热水的机器。Seward位于比较冷和多雨的地方,有热水还是会缓解很多不适感的。

Generally a nice hotel. Expensive but not out of line for Seward in July.
Pros:

Comfortable room in Seward.

Cons:

While we love the sound of rain, there is an a/c unit for the room that extends to the outside. There was a terrible dripping on metal sound most of the night.

Pros:

Disappointed that it was not at water’s edge

Cons:

Disappointed that it wasn’t on waterfront.
Hotel (and staff) had a cold, corporate feel to it. No “home-feel” touch. Very impersonal.

Basic room for much more other towns on Kenai peninsula.
Pros:

Pluses: nice lobby, rooms seem clean.
Nice location at tip of Seward, next to Sea Museum snf dining ( not near the harbor).

Minuses: room was only 400 sq ft, windows would have a nice view if cleaned. Housekeeping did not come after two nights as they are supposed to. Breakfast is not included. Not sure they are set up for multi-night guests.

Stayed on Kenai for less than half the price in a full suite.

Probably one of the worst hotel stays I’ve ever had
Pros:

Location

Cons:

No one told us there was no AC in the room, and because it was an interior room we couldn’t open a window. The temperature stayed at a constant 80 degrees. When we asked the staff they gaslit us by saying maintenance was working on it until finally admitting there’s no AC, or the unit is permanently offline.

Dissapointing
Pros:

It’s clean and nice and in a good location.

Cons:

From the moment I arrived until the moment I left, I felt unwelcome at this hotel. Interestingly, two of the male staff members were very friendly and helpful, but most of the women I interacted with were strictly business-oriented and, in my opinion, not particularly warm or welcoming. Having traveled to more than 100 countries across all continents, I have experienced many different levels of hospitality, and this one stood out for the wrong reasons.

At one point, an older staff member openly scolded a younger employee right in front of me, a guest, which made me very uncomfortable. Professional disagreements should be handled privately, not in front of customers.

Another disappointment was that the room rate did not include breakfast, which I feel is something guests should be aware of when considering the value offered.

Overall, the atmosphere lacked the warmth and hospitality I expect when staying at a hotel, and unfortunately, I would not choose to stay here again.

STAY AWAY FROMEDGEWATER
Pros:

Pretty much nothing.

Cons:

A room for disabled with no windows. If there is a fire in the hallway how do I get out of the room?
Asked for another room, no disabled rooms available so they gave us a double bed room after paying for a king room. No refund of price difference since they said it was the same price.
Booking.com says a breakfast is included. Went down for breakfast and made my way to get a bagel and the attendant asked for my receipt. What receipt? The receipt for $19.99 that you paid for the breakfast?
I said it was included, she said no. I asked for the manager who wasn't available but the front desk clerk called him on the phone. He said no one gets a free breakfast. I showed them the booking receipt where it's clearly indidtaed. He said no free breakfast. I asked if I'm spending $350 for a double room it should at the least include breakfast. He said $19.99 or go somewhere else. I dint understand why at 8am the was no one sitting for breakfast in a sold out hotel.
Never again. People should avoid this hotel at all costs!

Great location, but make sure you don’t have an interior room.
Pros:

Very convenient to all the fun in Seward, AK.

Cons:

The shower was cold in the morning. There was no heat source in the room nor a hair dryer. Breakfast was expensive. I disliked having an interior room with no windows.
