Nice place to stay. Nothing fancy.
Good little spot for fishing out of Homer. Is it 5 star, no. Is it a clean place to stay with hot water and good comfortable beds with pillows, yes. The bar/restaurant is good. The breakfast in the morning is good. Plenty of options.

The breakfast was excellent, and the breakfast room has a wonderful view. The beds were comfortable, and our room was quiet. The only drawback for us was that there is no elevator to the upper floors.
