About this property

Newly renovated Historical Studio with full kitchen

1 bedroom studio with 1 bathroom and full kitchen. Can sleep 4 - 1 queen bed and 1 full futon. There is no separation between the 2 sleeping spaces. This is one of the most historic buildings left in Seward. It’s the only one left on 5th Ave, just 1 block from shopping, entertainment and restaurants. 1 block from the Sea Life Center and 1 block from the bay. The apartment, at one time, was a store front and then a hair salon. Today it is a fully renovated studio apartment.

WE are located 1 street over from the main street with shopping, bars and restaurants. Museum/Library is directly behind us. Sea Life Center is 1 block away. Waterfront is 1 block away. Train depot, Cruiseship and Marina are 1 mile away. Free shuttle around Seward is 1/2 block away.

Perfect
This place was perfect for our 3 day stay. Walking distance to many restaurants and the Alaska Sea Life Center. Short drive to the docks where you can take a cruise around Resurrection Bay. Kitchen area was just enough to make easy morning coffee and breakfast. If we ever come back to Seward would definitely stay there again.

Experiencing Seward before Cruising Alaska
Awesome location and perfect accommodations! Shelly was really helpful on some restaurant suggestions and was able to get me into the unit early so I could explore Seward during my 24-hour stay. If I’m back in Seward, I hope to be a repeat guest at Shelly’s place.

Great studio!
The studio is perfect for a couple. First: location was 10/10. The town of Seward is tiny so everything was within 5 min driving but there was also plenty within 5 min walking distance of the apartment too! The unit itself was plenty big for 2 people for a few days. The kitchen was stocked and had what we needed. The bathroom was simple but functional. The shower was a little small if you’re over 6 foot tall but we had plenty of hot water and that’s what we care more about! Very comfy and cozy for us, we. Enjoyed our stay!

Wonderful place
Our host was able to get us in early which worked out very well for us. The host is very responsive and easy to communicate with. It was very clean and a great space. The couch with the foam topper was very comfortable. This space is right by downtown and not far from a free shuttle stop. Noise from the upstairs apartment was a little bothersome but not that bad.

Very cute, nicely decorated studio apt in a great Seward location. Shops, restaurants and the aquarium are all within a few blocks. The harbor is about 1.5 miles away, you can walk the trail along the bay or catch a ride on the free shuttle.

a great place to stay in Seward
My family and I enjoyed a night here in Seward after taking the Alaska Railroad into town. We worked with orange bike delivery service to handle our luggage while we waited to check in and after we checked out the next morning. The apartment is easy to find, very clean and comfortable! Communication was very quick and helpful. I would definitely stay here again if we make it back to Seward!

Great place that satisfied all our needs
We felt right at home during our 3 nights in this apartment. We cooked dinner two of the nights, and if the kitchen didn't have it, there was a Safeway a short drive away. We enjoyed the walkability to nearly anything you'd want to do in Seward. We definitely recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Shelly Lindell

Host profile image
Love Alaska and the great outdoors. We have wonderful friends in Seward and decided to become a part of this amazing community. Matt and I re both from the Midwest - MN and IA. We met in Denver and moved to Alaska in 2002. We absolutely love traveling and being hosts, mostly to share stories and adventures. When we get a chance to talk with our guests, it renews our love for our home and community. We are so blessed. We want to share this blessing with everyone.

Why they chose this property

Because it’s part of Alaska History. it is one of the oldest buildings in Seward and we loved the history and the possibilities to bring it back to life. We have worked hard to provide a nice clean quaint and quiet place to stay. We have local residents in the building who you may run into out and about. Some are born and raised in Seward!!

What makes this property unique

This property is very unique. It is one of Seward's oldest buildings build in either 1905 or 1906. It was a boarding house to the railroad workers in the early 1900's. It survived the 1964 earthquake tsunami. In 2017, we bought this run down virtually empty building and spent every weekend for 6 years coming down from Anchorage and renovating the entire place. Just my husband and I. We have finally moved to Seward and love this amazing community. We hope you love what we have done to restore history.
