Belle expérience dans un Rorbuer
Pros:

Nous avons aimé le style de la maison, elle nous a paru étonnamment grande malgré l'aspect extérieur. L'ambiance permet une totale déconnexion.
Le fait d'avoir 2 salles d'eau était très appréciable.
La literie est correcte.

Cons:

Quelques équipements supplémentaires auraient été les bienvenus (comme une passoire pour égoûter les pâtes).

Pros:

自驾的理想选择,小岛停车随意,若看北极光,相信比对岸的市中心更佳,若没车,那到市中心有一小段路(桥)要走……

Good location with disappointing service.
Pros:

Good location. The rorbu was clean and warm, spacious enough for 2 people, although it had a bunk bed, I don't think those would be suitable for another 2 adults... The restaurant was great, staff was nice and helpful.

Cons:

The promised view of the sea from our rorbu was blocked by a huge concrete house. Receptionists were not very helpful, they were polite but didn't go out of their way to help with any questions we had. The hotel didn't have a shuttle service to town, if you don't have a car you either order a taxi on your own, they didn't offer to do that for us, but they did provide the number of the local company, and also you can walk across on a bridge which is an adventure of its own, especially when the wind is howling, it roughly takes 15-20 minutes. The kitchen was missing key features, like microwave or a toaster. From the joined rorbu you can hear other guests talking, walking etc. The food comes in incredibly small portions. Our Aurora Tour was cancelled twice, but the first time they didn't bother telling us, so we showed up at reception in full gear and joyful attitude. Instead of apologizing they gave us a fake smile and said the company was not theirs. Fair enough, but they did advertise the activity as joined venture. Altogether it's in nice setting, but the service did take away from the experience for sure.

I loved it!
Pros:

I love it, the apartment was in great condition and super cozy. Great utensils too

Cons:

The stairs. We had to stay on second floor house, the stairs were super super super thin, so going up with the luggage was insane and unsafe.

Loved it!
Pros:

Loved the cabins. Very spacious and homy feel.

Cons:

Our room was a little far from the main reception. For guests without a car might have to walk a long distance.

Magico
Pros:

Il rorbu 17 è magico. Su palafitta con una vista stupenda sul mare. Non sembra assolutamente di stare in una città piena di luci ma in mezzo alla natura! Letto comodissimo, abbiamo dormito da Dio. Avremmo voluto restare di più!
