Great Stay!

We had a comfortable stay at the Guesthouse. It was very clean and spacious. Cooking utensils and supplies were provided for, even though we didn't make use of it. Check-in and check-out was easy. Great communications with the host.

we loved our stay here. we checked in quite late. it was already pitch black by the time we arrived but we were able to check in with no difficulty. and we were able to see the northern lights! in the morning, we could see the snow-capped mountains in the distance. a truly beautiful location.

A little disappointed unfortunately

I booked this place based on the reviews, but my experience was different. First, never receive an email about self-check-in on the day of arrival, so had to call (a long distance call by cellphone) the owner. Second, the noise was carried between the walls, could hear shower, footsteps and voices. It was clean and beds were okay.

Hébergement à touristes basique

Hébergement bien situé pour visiter le nord. Logement calme, petit et équipé au minimum. Défaut : pas de rideau opaque et lever du soleil face à la fenêtre qui nous réveille immédiatement.

Sehr, sehr süßes Haus in einer Häuserreihe mit ausreichend Platz für vier Personen. Kleine Kochnische, ein schön eingerichtetes Bad und ein separates Schlafzimmer für 2-3 Personen - also alles, was man braucht. Ein kleiner Terrassenbereich mit Stühlen und Tisch war ein netter Bonus. Alles sehr sauber, gepflegt und neu. Einfacher Check-In. Die Unterkunft liegt wirklich angenehm weit außerhalb (trotzdem nur 20 Minuten mit dem Auto vom Supermarkt entfernt), sodass wir super gut Polarlichter beobachten konnten.

Lovely and quiet property. Had everything we needed to cook including oil. Very clean and nice. Would have been a good place to see the Aurora since it is out of town but unfortunately we did not. Would definitely recommend.

Stayed 3 nights and lovely, warm, comfortable. Good kitchen facilities but a microwave would be handy. No bath soap or shampoo provided which is unusual as had to buy shampoo. Wonderful views. Can be noisy from footsteps in other units as line of 5 but most people quiet by 1030ish.

Wonderful views. Warm and comfortable apartment in the guesthouse. Kitchen facilities fine. When the sun is out lovely to sit outside. Comfortable bed, hot shower. Even some books supplied. As ever the only thing is noise from other apartments as the 5 are in one line so heavy walking vibrates the flooring. As long as people go to bed at a reasonable time and don't get up too early not too much of an issue.

Endroit calme si voisins respectueux

Le logement est situé au calme, avec une superbe vue. Équipé avec le minimum dont vous ayez besoin ce qui nous convient mais il manquait quand même une passoire (lorsque vous mangez des pâtes cela est plus pratique) et nous n'avions qu'une petite cuillère pour 3. A noter qu'il n'y a pas de micro ondes. Il n'y a pas de gel douche à disposition alors que nous en avions dans toutes les guesthouses. L'isolation est également très minime alors si comme nous, les voisins ne sont absolument pas respectueux bonne chance. Parler fort, marcher tel un mammouth jusqu'à 00h et faire de même dès 6h du matin à peine, en faisant rouler sa valise devant les autres chambres au lieu de la porter, c'est assez désagréable lorsque vous souhaitez vous reposer. Mais cela n'est pas la faute des hôtes malheureusement. Nous avons fait l'enregistrement autonome tout était facile.
