Hotel is beautiful, location great but price is very high and customer service seems to be secondary
Pros:

Location and Hotel beautiful and very clean.

Cons:

Queen size bed advertised was the size of a full bed and small and the check-in process was very poor. The check-in process took over 20 minutes with 2 different staff members and the manager on site seemed more interested in talking with other tour group vendors than assisting the issues the new staff members were having. I also asked for an extra pillow to be taken to my room and after a staff member said they would go get one for me to place in the room they were gone in excess of 10 minutes and another staff member had to go get me the pillow since the first staff member was MIA.

Overcharge dispute nearing resolution
Pros:

Update to my review of Hotel Edgewater-- - Mr Scheffer and Ms Parson from Hotel Edgewater both kindly reached out to me regarding the dispute about the overcharge for standard rooms. After much analysis, my travel agent agrees with them that Expedia, the booking agency he used, had made the error. I'm awaiting (hoping for!) a refund from Expedia. Please ignore my earlier negative review of the hotel. I believe that the overcharge was not their fault.

A good hotel option in Seward
Pros:

Made reservations for 2 rooms with 2 beds for 2 weekday nights for extended family less than a month before we arrived so knew our choices in Seward were limited and expensive. Overall our first floor rooms were nice, clean, quiet, and convenient. We would have preferred to have the sink in the bathroom vs just outside bathroom in the room for privacy and to avoid bothering roommate's sleep. None of us ate the buffet breakfast (about $20) as we didn't usually eat that much but no option for less like a continental. There is a nice brunch / coffee shop across the street right on the bay. It was easy to walk to Sealife Center. Parking is on the street so availability depends on time of day due to other businesses across the street.

Not a pleasant experience
Pros:

Although we called a day ahead of our arrival to secure a shuttle from the train station, none came and we were left in the pouring rain to wait ½ hour for the free city shuttle. We called the hotel and no one answered. When we did arrive at the hotel, there was no one st the desk.The room was clean but there were collections of dirt caught in dust in the corners in the tiny bathroom. We were only offered a small bar of soap in the shower. At our final walk through to check for misplaced belongings, we found a nice pair of shoes behind the curtains near the corner that werent ours! We opted not to pay $20 for the breakfast buffet that was usual fare included at hotels charging half the price per night. The young man at the desk was busy on his phone when we had questions. We stayed at the Edgewater in 2015 and had a much different experience. It may have been near the end of the season, but we felt as though we were overlooked.
