What guests say
8.7 / 10 · Very good on Booking.com, from 145 guest reviews
Captain's Choice Motel earns consistently strong sentiment for its spectacular views of the Lynn Canal, unbeatable location near the marina and main street, and notably warm, accommodating staff — including a convenient ferry shuttle. The main recurring gripe is a breakfast spread that leans too sweet and lacks savoury staples, while some rooms suffer from road noise, heat, and the general wear of an older property.
