Stayed just one night but my partner and I really enjoyed the stay. Staff was really nice and we really appreciated being upgraded to a room closer to the beach view. The room was clean and cozy and the view from it was amazing. We only had a slight issue with not getting anything to play on the TV, seemed like a signal issue but nothing we stressed about. We look forward to staying here in the future.

Booked through Expedia and paid extra for a balcony with ocean view. I suppose we could see the ocean, but they first put us in a handicapped room and said I’d “booked that,” I hadn’t. And begrudgingly moved us to another room, still not with the view I paid extra for. Very disappointed. The worst part of the trip by far. There are other hotels….
No curtains so no way to block the late light at night (summer in Alaska)
The door didn’t fit quite right.
My “ocean view” is there over that wall between the balcony and the ocean.
