This property was just ok. The outside of the building was in poor shape. The room was fine, nothing special. Everything was clean, though. Dean at the desk was nice enough. The breakfast was fine.

Fifth stay here!

This hotel is my go-to place in Valdez! Clean, comfortable room. Great shower. Friendly staff. One of the best breakfasts I've had at a motel. They even tody up the room and bring fresh towels everyday. This is a great place!

I go to Valdez every year, and this year we decided to stay at this hotel. Everyone was friendly, we were treated very well, and we'll probably be booking this hotel every year. Thank you for everything!

Basic hotel but done well.

Stayed two nights with my family, good sized rooms (we had 2) clean and tidy though one room had no view to be delighted with,the other looked over a snow capped mountain and the street outside. Beds soft and comfortable. Breakfast was basic but good, coffee, hot chocolate and chilled water always available in the reception area. Very happy and exceeded expectations.

A conventional hotel in a convenient location, across from the Valdez Museum and a short walk to many food trucks. A hot breakfast is included but it’s not particularly healthy (need more fruit options than just bananas). The bed was comfortable and the towels were fluffy. No gym. Plenty of ice. The decor would benefit from an update. The only odd thing was that the hot and cold faucet was reversed at the bathroom sink, but we got used to turning it counterintuitively. Fine place to stay for two nights.
