War ein perfekter Aufenthalt. Sehr nettes Personal. Zimmer sehr schön eingerichtet. Tolles Badezimmer.

Just great :)
Pros:

Great dark location for northern lights, friends staff and very good food . Breakfast was great too.

Cons:

If I can suggest , there is a bright light above the main door , there should be a switch to be able to take it off during the Nortern lights. We will be back next year

Pros:

We loved the area, especially the beautiful mountain views.

Cons:

We stayed at the accommodation for one night. From the moment we arrived, we could hear the neighbors, and their noise continued in the late evening and after midnight, which made it difficult to rest. It would be helpful if they posted that there are quiet hours after 10 PM for a more peaceful stay.

Nice place representing good cost-to-value ratio.
Pros:

The hotel was just ideal, especially that this was the place where we first saw northern lights - great location for this, far from light pollution.
