N'y allez pas
Pros:

Je cherche encore...
Literie OK. Propre.

Cons:

Le gîte est à 1 km de l'accueil, dommage si on est à pied.
Accueil glacial ("à la norvégienne"), alors que The Tide se veut un établissement de luxe.
Fenêtre cassée; j'ai contacté l'établissement via Booking (sinon, 2 km à pied car ils n'ont pas de téléphone); une espèce de cerbère est venue et a décrété qu'ils ne réparaient plus, car ça faisait plusieurs fois... Et que c'était au propriétaire de voir. Autant dire que vous avez intérêt à parler suffisamment anglais pour lui tenir tête. Et que le propriétaire n'a rien fait.
En réalité, the Tide ne fait que changer draps et serviettes et donner les clés. Chaque propriétaire équipe, ou pas, son gîte. Le nôtre avait le minimum vital (4 assiettes, 4 verres, pas de bols ni saladier, mobilier extérieur rouillé...) . Les clients sont vraiment pris pour des vaches à lait.
Enfin, pour info, les bus étant très peu fréquents sur les Lofoten, et The Tide étant loin du terminal des ferries, nous avons dû marcher 4km pour rejoindre le ferry, sur une route étroite et dangereuse.
Le seul hébergement envisageable sans voiture est le camping de Moskenes, près du terminal des ferries.

OK, men med förbättringspotential.
Pros:

Läget var fantastiskt.

Cons:

Saknade mikro, skärbräda, durkslag och skohorn.

Rien

A parte il difetto della porta, soggiorno perfetto.
Pros:

Indipendenza e posizione del Rorbuer erano TOP.
Balcone, tavolo esterno. Posto stupendo.

Cons:

La porta d'accesso al nostro Rorbuer la si poteva chiudere ... ma non a "chiave", perciò rimaneva aperta.
Abbiamo subito avvisato la Reception, ma il difetto non è stato riparato.
PER DUE GIORNI, chiudevamo la porta ... ma chiunque vi avrebbe potuto accedere.
