Hotel Seward

8/10 Good
"Very nice hotel. We stayed in the newer modern wing in a modern room with a bathroom. Beware that is you still in the historic rooms, many of them do not have a private full bathroom. You will need to use a shared bathroom. We were there in October so it was very quiet. The room was spacious, clean, and new. We were very comfortable. Would stay here again."
