Awesome little B&B in Seward. The staff was great at communicating about the property. The rooms had plenty of space and a great loft for the kids. The location is unbeatable for exploring downtown Seward or a quick drive up to the small boat harbor. It was a great find for visiting Seward!!

5 stars - loved the stay with my son here. Staff is very nice and makes excellent breakfast in morning. I was able to put my own food in kitchen refrigerator and heat it up in microwave in their kitchen. The view of ice-covered mountains from the breakfast room is exceptional.

I would highly recommend this Inn! Charming, comfortable, clean. Staff were incredibly helpful. Breakfast is awesome with Cook to order eggs. Homemade breads. Full coffee and tea service. Use of the kitchen after hours on a self-serve basis. Only real downside was that you must be able to navigate stairs to get up to the second floor of the building which houses the Inn

This is a lovely and quaint bed-and-breakfast in Seward. The location is good for exploring the historic downtown area with the shops and restaurants. There is a city shuttle if you wanna go further north in town for some excursions. Most excursion companies also offer a free pick up. It is a much better neighborhood to stay and then uptown. Sara and her staff operate this property and take care of your every need. The morning, hot breakfast to order was outstanding! We enjoyed fresh fruit salad, eggs to order bacon, and sausage and amazing sourdough waffles. Certainly a really good find in Seward!
