It was the two of us for a one night stay in Seward. Property was in a fantastic location. Bed was super comfortable and the place was super cute. This is in a building with several apartment type units which this is what it was. Only thing we did not like was in the bathroom, not a lot of shelf space or a vanity. This also would be cramped with 4 adults. Maybe with small kids it would do.
