We stayed at Mile Zero for two nights and had a wonderful experience. The owner and staff are friendly and welcoming, the room we stayed in was clean, comfortable and extremely convenient given that there is an entrance out to a deck so we could come and go without risk of disturbing anyone. The rate was very reasonable especially for Skagway which has the tendency to exploit the captive market with high prices. Internet isn't included in the cost of the stay but is only $5/day. Its location isn't right down town (if such a term can be used for Skagway!) but it's a short walk from Broadway and the fact that it's slightly off of the main street is great if you want peace and quiet when the cruise ships bring in 10,000 people during the day! Breakfast was nice with a selection of bagels, English muffins, cereal and home made baked goods as well a juice and hot drinks. There are no kitchen privileges after breakfast but they do have a fridge and microwave on the deck out back that we used to reheat our food from Bombay Curry.

However, all we got was out-of-date "Clif" bars and some coffee pods with a few sugar packages from random places and no creamer/milk. When I asked for some creamer for the coffee the response was negative -- "No -- just what's in the room". The bed was comfortable but the room had a funky/moldy smell to it after the smell of bleach had disappeared. The room was not private as the back door did not have a lock to keep staff/owners out. The TV worked OK but the WiFi was either very limited or not available. ||The poor hospitality and oddball breakfast "amenity" say I should give the Mile Zero a "Terrible" rating, but as the bed was OK and the TV worked, I give the place a "Poor" rating. Regardless, we...
