Loved the location. Walkable to downtown and the harbor. There was a used washcloth in one of the bathrooms when we arrived. There was a used sponge that smelled in the kitchen so asked for a clean washcloth and kitchen towel. Cleaned out a bottom drawer that was very dirty. Loved the quaintness of the property. Lots of history to read about in the house.

We loved the historical touches throughout the house. We were very comfortable as a group of 6 and the house had everything we needed. Sebastian went above and beyond to accommodate us and was easy to communicate with. The house is in a great downtown location and only a block away from the waterfront. The free community shuttle bus made it easy to get around. Would highly recommend visiting Seward by train!
