I was pleasantly surprised by my stay at this hotel. The rooms, though a bit basic, were conveniently located within the hotel grounds, granting easy access to the facilities. However, the darkness of the room with closed curtains due to the hot temperature was a drawback. The service was exceptional, with attentive and friendly staff catering to our every need. The location was ideal, close to restaurants and a supermarket, and the outdoor attractions like the frozen lake made it truly special. The dining options were varied and satisfying, enhancing my overall experience. Despite some minor issues, I found the hotel facilities to be accommodating and useful.

The location of the hotel was great, with restaurants and a K-Mart supermarket within a short walking distance from the reception. We even got to see the northern lights just a few steps from our house. However, the hour-long coach ride from the airport was a bit of a downside, but having shops within a 10-minute walk was convenient.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were equipped with a sauna and drying closet, making them great for families, but the 'Apartments' setting meant no fresh sheets, pushed-together single beds, and no top-up of toiletries, giving a slightly dated feel.
