Quaint and charming 1 bedroom in Historical Building in Downtown Seward

Premier location in Historic Downtown! This charming and cozy 1 bedroom is located just 1 block from Resurrection Bay, the Sea Life Center and downtown shops and restaurants. We are one of Sewards Historic buildings and part of the Historic walking tour. This rental has been renovated to provide modern amenities, but we kept some of the historic charm. Small but quaint with queen bed, private bath, sitting area, kitchenette and outdoor area. Free Shuttle and walking path 1 block away.
Location is the key! Heart of downtown, but on a quiet street, you are walking distance to almost everything!
This charming, but small, apartment is 1 block from Resurrection Bay, the Sea Life Center and 1 street over from downtown shops and restaurants. This is one of Sewards oldest buildings and originally a boarding house from the old railroad days. Come stay and be part of Seward's history. Speaking of history, we are right behind the museum/library.
This rental has been renovated, but we kept some of the historic charm. The size is approximately the same as a standard hotel room, but we provided a lot more amenities and a LOT more affordable. It is a 1 bedroom with queen super comfy bed, closet, bathroom with tub/shower and small seating area. Kitchenette has single induction plate, convection oven, microwave, air fryer, Keurig, French press and refrigerator. Blinds and blackout curtains to help you get a restful nights sleep. This apartment is in a building housing 7 units, so quiet hours are a must. Tv is streaming with free WIFI boasting highest speed available with unlimited data. Outside area has gazebo seating, sunny seating and outdoor table. Charcoal grill provided.

It was just what we needed. A comfy bed, hot shower and a way to make coffee. We enjoyed the cute decor and welcome note. Overall a great stay at a great location. There was some confusion in which apartment we were in but we just checked doors until our code worked.

Cozy and Convenient Place in the Heart of Seward
This little apartment is exactly what I wanted for a night in Seward. It is located conveniently right in the middle of downtown only a few blocks away from the waterfront, the SeaLife Center, and the restaurants of downtown. The host was extremely communicative and a pleasure to deal with. If you are interested in a cozy spot to return to after a day out and about I would highly recommend staying here.

We LOVED our stay at Marathon by the Sea - the bed was so extremely comfortable and cozy. Great location- we walked a block to the courthouse to get married! Well stocked with kitchen gadgets and serve ware, as well as extra blankets and towels. Host was so very kind and promptly responded whenever we reached out. We most definitely recommend!

Quaint and Convenient
Great option for a few days. The apartment is an easy walk to the water, the Sea Life Center, the brewery, and downtown restaurants. Internet speed is great for making travel/excursion arrangements and entertainment. Everything was clean and welcoming. We enjoyed the museum located in the library and were able to also see the movie about the 1964 earthquake--shown once a day for a separate fee. Highly recommend the movie.

Great space for our needs
This was a perfect place for our short stay. Right in the middle of downtown, this small apartment gave us a place to drop our bags and explore the town. It is perfect for two people and a bit tight for four (especially with two teenage boys at the end of a long trip!), but this was no surprise given the description of the property on the platform. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed for a quick meal and coffee. We met the host on the way in who was gracious with his time and the information he shared about the area. The host was communicative and kind from start to finish. We would gladly stay here again when back in downtown Seward.

This small but lovely and we’ll-stocked apartment was perfect for our 3 night stay. The manager, Shelly, did a great job of communicating and even sent a long list of things to do and good places to eat. We especially liked that it was walking distance to many attractions and only 2 blocks from a free shuttle stop to take us to many others.

Great location- near many restaurants and shops
My husband and I enjoyed our short stay. Unit is small but comfortable with a very cute decor. Location is great- within easy walking distance to many restaurants and shops. We took a 6 hr scenic boat ride (highly recommend) and the harbor is about a mile away. We would definitely recommend renting this property.

I asked for an early check-in and was told that I could check in at 1pm instead of 3. I showed up at 2pm and the cleaning lady was just getting started. I came back at 3:30pm to officially check in and the cleaning lady barged right in to "complete" the cleaning.
