Location was ideal. Ran "hot" water for longer than a half hour and water never even got warm.

Tough to assess. The property was close to where we needed to be. The folks working there were super nice and efficient. Room was a bit worn, but probably par for the course in Seward. Quick checkin and checkout. But this hotel was full of freakin' right-wing, Trump-lovin' white trash that felt obligated to party oitside their rooms until midnight. Not sure if i was in Alaska or Arkansas. But I cant hold the hotel responsible for their low IQ clientele.
The manager was were accommodating. She was very polite and helpfull

We could not possibly have stayed in the room we had booked due to the faulty lighting. One light didn't work and the other was a headache inducing striplight that constantly flashed. Unfortunately, there was no maintenance person or manager on site to deal with it and all other rooms were full. Eventually, we received a refund and managed to fund another place to stay.

Mixed, But I’d Come Back
I stayed here because it is just steps from the train depot. Check in was very friendly. Bed is Good. Room needs maintenance. Ni housekeeping during my four nights here. (That’s fine with me.) Best soup and hot dogs in town right across the street.
Staff was extremely accommodating, kind & wonderful. Marina Motel is a one story building - so no stair which is great for us older people. They have a small coffee station available stocked with Keurig coffee, hot cocoa, & tea. Diana took extra time to help us which we really appreciated.
Noisy parking lot , too hot in room and can’t adjust temperature, knob fell off tub faucet, tub and sink very slow to drain, shower head pointed to wall and not adjustable. Terrible accommodations and way too expensive!
Great location within walking distance of the fishing docks. Pretty clean, but motel is very dated with their security. Had a physical room key that could be easily copied. Very small bathroom and bathtub. The door pictured in the bathroom had a big gap and a guest hallway was on the other side. I’m sure everything we did in the bathroom was heard by anybody in that hallway. They did have self service towels and toiletries which were good quality and very convenient! Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Nice vintage mini fridge in the room was appreciated. Room was very hot, not sure why, but we just opened the windows and it was fine. We stayed in the busy season for 2 nights, $645.
We had one of those days where if it could go wrong it did and Deanna at the Marina Motel saved the day. We called to confirm the reservation before we drove out there and after hearing about our day she not only confirmed the reservation, but when we got there she'd moved us into a bigger room. She went above and beyond to make the stay special for us and our kids.

The staff was friendly. Bed was pretty comfortable and linens seemed clean and fresh. However, i think my room had black mold on the ceiling and needed a deep clean. A rack and hangers for hanging clothes would have been nice. I appreciated the retro microwave and mini fridge.
We stayed a few night to explore the Kenai Peninsula before embarking on our cruise. The front desk staff was VERY friendly and helpful. The property is dated but was clean and meet our needs. Coffee, tea, and hot cocoa were available in the lobby as well as a microwave. The rooms have small refrigerators with freezers. We would definitely stay again!
