Cadre et igloo très bien, le reste ni fait ni à faire. Pour une prestation de ce tarif, extrement dommage !
Pros:

L’emplacement même si les igloos sont extrêmement proches les uns des autres.
L’igloo en lui même est très sympathique

Cons:

L’isolement important en terme de situation géographique. Si vous n’avez pas de voitures, les taxis ne sont pas présents et coutent extrêmement chers (À/R zoo de ranua) 64 euros.
Le personnel non qualifié, ne savent pas ce qu’ils font là, accueil froid
Le repas du soir à bannir (personne dans le restaurant mais tellement isolé qu’on a pas tellement le choix de manger là). Hors de prix (52 euros le menu), pour des plats littéralement chauffés au micro onde devant vos yeux. Immangeable !
Le petit déjeuner banal

Pros:

Henkilökunta oli avuliasta ja ystävällistä. Sijainti hieno. Iglu oli hyvin siivottu.

Cons:

Paikka oli mukava, hyvin siivottu ja hienolla sijainnilla, mutta ei hintansa arvoinen. Iglun rakentamisessa laadukkaisiin materiaaleihin näytettiin panostetun mutta tällä hinnalla asiakas odottaa, että rikkoutuneet listat, roskikset ja vinoon repsahtaneet kaapinovet huomioidaan jatkuvasti siivoojan toimesta ja korjataan heti ennen kuin seuraava asiakas ehtii sellaisia nähdä. Aamiainen oli kovin vaatimaton huonehintaan nähden.

Excellent moment , dépaysant et nuit atypique ,tout confort ! Ravie!
Pros:

La beauté du logement et du lieu , apaisant au milieu de rien , parfait pour un dépaysement total !

Cons:

Le buffet du petit déjeuné est assez sommaire.
Nous avons voulu dîner au restaurant mais un menu seul était imposé, dommage, on a voulu aller ailleurs mais seuls des snacks aux alentours. Heureusement la cuisine dans le logement et le market a 3km nous aurons bien dépanné !

Pros:

- Beautiful, spacious igloo
- Great location for aurora viewing
- Super friendly staff
- Nice sauna
- Good blinds for privacy

Cons:

- Relatively small distance between igloos made it feel less private
- The bed position of the igloos faced other igloos rather than the lake / river
- Confusing light controls
- Food in the restaurant was OK, could have been better given the price and lack of other options

Noche familiar en iglú
Pros:

Iglú familiar de lujo en un entorno inmejorable lo mejor es que cabíamos dos adultos y dos niñas perfectamente. El sitio es espectacular para pasar uno o dos días y disfrutar de todo. Una pena no haber tenido más tiempo de disfrutar el propio iglú.
Dormir viendo las estrellas no tiene precio.

Cons:

La variedad del desayuno buffet era un poco escasa, pero suficiente.
