We had a very pleasant stay. A lot of care and thought went into this fully renovated apartment. The host was responsive and the check-in process was a breeze.
This property was perfect for our stay in Seward. Owner was quick to respond when we had a question. The room was very comfortable, clean, and had everything we needed. Quiet neighborhood. Would definitely recommend.
A true gem! The apt. was very, very clean, modern and artistic. It reminded us of a compact Swedish apartment in Stockholm. An excellent stay for us and our grandson.
What a lovely place to stay in Seward! Clean, cozy and comfortable, equipped with everything we needed. Location is great, easy to walk to local shops and restaurants, and only a few minutes drive to the waterfront where we went on a Kenai Fjords tour.If you are a light sleeper, you probably already have ear plugs, so be sure to bring them for your stay here, as it is on a busy street and you can hear cars and passersby.
This was a great spot for my Seward adventure! Close to downtown and the Sealife Center. Plenty of restaurants and bars within walking distance. Especially important to me was warmth (as I visited during the winter) and it was very warm and cozy! I loved the decore. It was spacious for one, and it was quiet. Highly recommend and would stay here again.
Great apartment located so close to everything downtown. The communication with the host was great and check in was really smooth. It’s an older building, but the apartment has been updated really nicely. My favorite part….the bed was really comfortable and we had a great night sleep! We come to Seward a few times a year and would absolutely stay here again. Thanks for helping make our weekend so fun!
We were in Seward for our Grandson’s graduation, the apartment was perfect, right downtown.The host, Shelly, even provided extra coffee for the Kuerig!Would definitely stay again.
This apartment is right in the middle of downtown and within walking distance of everything. The host responded quickly and had great recommendations for food and hikes nearby. Would love to stay again :)
We were coming to Alaska and wanted to spend a night in Seward. This apt was perfect for our family! So close to downtown and all the restaurants and shops. The place was clean and super cute inside! The check in process was super easy and Shelly was avl if needed…I highly recommend and would def stay again if/when we make it back!!

It seems like this property is in a building that is managed by someone other than this host because the unit itself is immaculate and very charming; however, the outside door is completely covered in mold and the inside hallways to other units are in serious need of some fresh paint and also smell of mold. Other than that, we would definitely book this again! You can walk anywhere you need to and parking was a breeze.
Where to start?!? Old food was found in refrigerator. Cheap coffee maker leaked water all over the counter and wouldn't make coffee, merely hot water. Also, it had mold in it. Bathroom is extremely tiny.
I am disabled: we requested ADA accessible on VRBO and were not informed that this unit is on the second floor and only accessible via outdoor stairs.
