Clean and convenient and pretty well equipped for preparing meals. Would have liked some paper towels. Area around the property is under construction and I am sure when it is completed it will be an excellent place to stay.

We entered our room with a code and had no contact with anyone. Our room was nice, clean and comfortable. A lot of construction going on and the parking area was very muddy. Coffee shop on site but never opened.

Seward Stay
The lodge was adequate - nothing to get excited about. If you're looking for a place to just spend the night, then it's good. The bed was really comfortable and the room was clean. No ameniities - found the office on the day we were leaving and check in/check out was done via the keypad on the door, If we came back, I'd probably choose a place closer to town where you could walk to restaurants. Speaking of food, the Tidewater Taphouse and The Flamingo were fantastic restaurants!

The Spruce Lodge provided a warm comfortable studio suite. The facilities seem reasonably new, were super clean and prepared well. There is no real signage to guide you into the property. They are building another lodge in behind the current one. The self check in worked well, even for us old folks. The coffee building was not open for our use. The lodge is slightly out out of town, but but within minutes of downtown Seward. I would recommend this lodge.

You need a car to stay here. There are no restaurants close. Christine from the lodge was nice and picked us up in Seward after our tour and showed us around she is amazing. It is just far away from things. The surrounding were beautiful!

Owners were very responsive. Seemed to really care that you have a good experience. It is a little out of the way but nice view of the mountains. They do need to put a sign out front, so it is easy to find. We had a very good experience.

Great place to stay a bit overpriced. Our room had stove and fridge but had only 1 pan no pots or lids or anything to really cook anything!

Self check-in and an espresso stand on-site was really nice and convenient. Staff (including doggos) were friendly. The walls were quite thin and the doors kind of slam shut, but luckily everyone was quiet after about 9:30pm.

Good place overall
Overall the place was convenient, clean and quiet. The bed was comfortable. The bath was very nice. The location is very good if you want to visit Exit glacier. We had some problem finding the place (didn't see any sign on the road). Self check-in went smoothly. The kitchen was OK but had very few cooking utensils. There is no front desk. We sent an email because of some issue and didn't get a response. We did get the help we needed after talking to the staff at the adjacent café.

Although Lodge wasn't easy to find (because of lack of sign on main street and ongoing construction on property), our room was quite nice, newly updated I'd guess. Location is about 2 miles from downtown Seward -that’s good more than not. Location is about 8 miles from parking lot for Exit Glacier. Bed was a bit soft but after 3 nights, I had no back ache from it. Kitchen was complete with cooking equipment and eating utensils. Saved us money to be able to cook meals. Would stay here again. Recommended.
