Pros

Cons
2.5-hour drive from Anchorage
Some rooms have exterior corridor access only
“The location proves undeniably convenient for quick access to tour boats headed to Kenai Fjords, making morning departures less stressful; however, experiences within the building seem inconsistent. While some praise the attentive staff and cleanliness, others have reported significant issues with room conditions and unresponsive service, suggesting variability that might temper expectations.”
