My stay at the hotel was quite comfortable and enjoyable. The room was cozy with a king-size bed, although a bit noisy due to its proximity to the car park and a plant room. The service exceeded my expectations, especially in terms of cleanliness and warmth. The location was very convenient for exploring Valdez, despite some minor issues with the shower. The dining experience was good overall, although there were some hiccups with the breakfast options. The facilities were adequate, providing a satisfactory experience.

The hotel has a huge room with a very nice bed at the rear, quite good even though a bit small. The service was friendly and helpful; however, some improvements are needed. Despite a few issues with the location, being convenient to the harbor has its perks. The dining experience was basic but enough to start the day. Overall, it offers value for money with a few noticeable flaws.
