"We loved the fact that it was a very short walk from the museum and town. Nice to have a good restaurant right there too. But the proximity to the sights in town was the best feature."
"Our stay at the super eight. Windham was great. The staff was helpful. They had a freezer to store our fresh, cut fish, and they had a shuttle to the airport, which was very convenient and helpful. Prices in Juneau are a little over the top for what you get. But this hotel stay was a good stay and we will likely stay there again next year."
"The silver bow Inn is a little jewel in Juneau. Although old, it has been updated and made very charming with little touches like custom wallpaper, and every amenity you could want. The only drawback is having to carry your luggage upstairs, but if you can do that this is the hotel to stay at."
