We arrived at the hotel and got our keys to our room, went upstairs to it and inside were trash cans full of garbage, sheets gone, blankets strewn across the furniture (maybe the sheets were in one of those piles). I went back downstairs and told the front desk, they said they have only one more room available. We lost our views, gained a room that upon entering immediately smelled like butane gas. Had to open the window and keep it open for a long time to air out. Even then, it continued to have a musky smell to it. 1 out of 5, would not recommend unless you have no choice.
If you like the smell of diesel fuel first thing in the morning, then this is the place. Carpet dirty, under the bed was flat nasty! No way to control the heat in the room. Continental breakfast was one step above getting a meal from a dumpster behind a restaurant. The reason I give a “poor” rating and not lower is, the shower was hot and powerful! Great way to warm up after a day of fishing in Valdez. It’s a converted pipeline man camp, which if I knew ahead of time, I have booked a room elsewhere.

Room smelled like gasoline because "the heater was just turned on" but the room only got colder.
If you just need a bed for the night, it'll do, otherwise consider camping, you'll hear your neighbors less.

Do not recommend
This property is a dump. The furniture was falling apart, a foam mattress topper was put on top of an old mattress, there were holes in the wall, floor in the bathroom peeling up. Common areas not clean. The bed sore had likely not been washed in weeks. Cringe worthy. Stayed only as there were no other available rooms in Valdez

The room was clean have all the necessary stuff. Locations was good as well. Downside was the walls are thin and you are hear people from other rooms
It is very old with thin walls but people know that going into renting this hotel. People were great, parking easy and at a reasonable cost.

Not really happy writing this review but I have to do it...THE BED SHEETS HAS HAIR ON IT & THE MATTRESS COVER HAS STAINS!! I have to go to the front desk to get new sheets & mattress cover so I can change it...the breakfast was ok..no refrigerator in the room..
This is truly a an example of consummate repurposing. This hotel is built with Atco buildings, I would guess that came from the North Slope of Alaska, but they have been well fitted together, and repurposed as a moderate Hotel.
It was clean, the staff was helpful.
The rooms are small, the furniture is dated and well used but the amenities such as soap, shampoo Etc we're not cheap ones, The bathroom was a very comfortable size, and all things were clean. The shower was great We were comfortable.
The town wasn't very big and was easy to get around. The hotel was very convenient and located within a few blocks of the pier where we went to Stan Stephens Glacier tour.
I should have asked for a refund. We paid more than a nicer hotel. The hole bottom section of the hotel stank of diesel fuel fumes. My husband works for a fuel company so I know the smell. I have had a headache all day from sleeping in the fumes. How the fire department hasnt shut this hotel down is beyond me.
