Just ok. Except no tv and no notification of this intentional deficiency.
Quaint hotel with kind and helpful staff within walking distance of shops and harbor. Beds are comfortable and clean, breakfast is filling and plentiful. Only discrepancy is there is no restaurant on site.
The was too dark. The room was dated but comfortable. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. I had the best breakfast ever at a hotel of this level.

This hotel wasn’t bad. It was quiet, room looked nice.
Main problem was our beds were very uncomfortable.
So except for the beds I’d say it was fine.
Beds were comfy, television and internet were average the lounge had lemon water and coffee which was nice, ice machine, small fridge and microwave in room. They also served breakfast but we didn’t make it to breakfast. We normally stay at cabins but nothing available this hotel was a pleasant surprise
This is a great place to stay in Valdez. The staff were all super friendly and helpful. The room was clean and spacious. It is in a convenient location and fairly inexpensive. Parking was never an issue. Loved it, would definitely stay here again.
Outside needs some updating but our room was clean and beds very comfortable

Older hotel in a good location. This was like stepping back in time a couple decades as far as decor, but friendly staff and well kept. Breakfast was OK. No coffee pot in room. TV was old and limited to 1 or 2 shopping channels. Good value compared to other options, just don't plan on watching TV, too much to see around Valdez, so get outside!
Very freindly folks at the front desk. The complimentary breakfast was a surprise and it was a very good breakfast! I would definitely return to Glacier Inn in Valdez AK!
