It was in a lovely setting! The shared spaces were very nice and well kept up. We booked through Expedia so I think we were given an older, handicapped equipped, room. (I queen bed and 1 single bed!?) The room was clean but the beds were poorly made (bed skirt tucked up under mattress) and there was no fridge. For the cost. It was a very spare room.

I’m sure the property there and the staff are wonderful—but we could not make it to Alaska, because Delta Airlines canceled our flights, and we could not get another flight. Unfortunately, we had to cancel our trip—but we are hoping to reschedule our trip for June of next year. —Eric

We booked this property on our own, not as part of a Princess Cruisetour. It seemed to be the only full-service hotel for many miles, and we had a great experience. Our room was comfortable, and the staff was very friendly and helpful. The view from the lobby, back seating area, and restaurant is spectacular. There are walking paths on the property that we enjoyed, and the food service staff was very accommodating. We ate a breakfast and a dinner there--both were tasty.

Beautiful place to stay, but housekeeping did a terrible job. We were there for four nights. They took our wet towels and bathmats but did not replace them. They knocked on our door for "housekeeping" at 8:10 a.m. We told them we were not ready. They did not come back. They had left the trash can full the day before, so it did not get emptied that day either.

Check out
The check out process was very disappointing. After standing in line while the staff member talked on the phone, another staff member came up and offered to help. I requested a receipt for my stay and she responded "We don't do that for Expedia customers, you will have to get it from them." Quite rude
