This is a unique hotel-- originally built to house the workers who cleaned up the Exxon Valdez oil spill. So good job on continuing to make the housing useful. The Keystone rooms are basic, so don't expect anything luxurious. But the bathroom was clean and the bed comfortable. When I asked to be moved to a quieter area of the hotel, I was given a room at the very back which was indeed less full. The staff is friendly and accommodating. Breakfast may be simple, but it's there every morning from 5:30 - 9:00am. Coffee, tea, English muffins and bread for toasting, fruit cups, sausages and sausage patties. Read the reviews to get an idea of whether the Keystone will suit your needs. I was happy with my several-night stay.

We checked in and given room keys and the room was dirty … bed sheets dirty ( bed was made) , empty bottles on counter, wet washcloths in tub, garbage in room… went to the desk, no apology etc. I had to say we need a new room. New room clean, no towels. Have to ask for them. The hotel smells of solvent real bad.

The staff were really friendly and helpful, however the building was in rough shape. Our initial room smelled very strongly of oil, but after we switched rooms it was much better.

No frills hotel

No frills hotel conveniently located. Lot’s of hot water and fire hose pressure. Breakfast is served starting at 5:30am. Walls are thin so you can hear other guests. Check in was good and fast. No refrigerator or room temperature control.

Very run down, there was a smell like fuel in hall, very small rooms, usually no one at the desk, but fantastic showers! No microwave/refrig in rooms (no room for them) and the available refrig/freezer for guests was not clean. Leakage under the water/coffee machine … not sure how they pass food area inspections. No knives in the breakfast area so we used our own from our food bag in our car. Not a place we could ever recommend or would choose to stay in again. But we loved the beauty of Valdez and the room was a means to the end of being there.

I found it to be somewhat run-down. The wall sockets were so worn out that anything plugged in wouldn’t stay and would simply fall out."
