    Charming historic house that has been lovingly restored. We appreciated the location so close to the bike path and a block away from the downtown area. Place was clean and comfortable. If you are looking for something out of the ordinary and more unique than a boring hotel room, I'd highly recommend staying here!

    The historic relics and decor reminding of Alaska's history and the historic building itself. The beds were comfortable. The neighborhood was quiet. I enjoyed the views from the living room windows. I wish I had more time to relax in the lodging but I was too busy enjoying Alaska. Conveniently located as well. I would definitely stay there again.

    We enjoyed our stay. Apartment was comfortable and we slept very well.It is an upstairs unit and warm air may rise on hotter days (We had one of the less usual full sun days in Seward). Unit cools down fine with open windows and air from outside.Turn back the clock to the early 1900s (Vintage).Comfortable bed. Very clean.Enjoyed our stay.

    This was a very comfortable and welcoming apartment. Perfect as a base for Seward adventures. Layout was good for a family of four. Kids each got their own twin bed. Fabulous views. Great location downtown near shops and restaurants.

    We stayed two nights. Very easy to walk to the water, just two minutes from the Sea Life Center, many restaurants. The owner communicated very quickly. The living space is large and one bedroom is fairly roomy. The room with twin beds is a little tight. Great views from both sides of the house!

    We stayed at this property Memorial Day weekend for 3 nights. The location is close to restaurants and the Sea Life Center. We were also able to easily walk to the waterfront. The check in was easy and communication was clear. Everything was clean and comfortable! Definitely would choose this place again when going to Seward!

    Location of the property was perfect to walk around. Older quaint apartment perfect for what we were looking for near the water and town. A 20 min walk to the port for marine tours if you don’t want to drive and right next to the marine wildlife center. Gas grill is on the ground floor and this unit is upstairs if you choose to use it.

    Loved the location, 2 blocks from the historic area of Seward. Short walk to the inlet and the sealife park. Only down side thing was we couldn't figure out how to turn the heat on to take the slight chill out of the air. We did find an electric oil heater to use.

    This house couldn’t have a better location. It was clean and charming with all of its history. However, although the house was from 1905- I was not expecting the mattresses to be from the same era. The mattresses and pillows in this house desperately need replacing. Also, there really is not much point in having a bedside lamp and clock if they are not plugged in and no extension cord is provided.
