Couldn’t wait to leave.
Pros:

The dog was nice…self check in was convenient if a little not secure by having all the names of the guests and room numbers and key codes to get in each rooms clearly visible at the unattended front desk.

Cons:

It was dirty and outdated. Furniture was stained and shredded. Restaurant was closed. Beds were old and uncomfortable. Pillows were completely flat. This property is rated an 8 on Booking and it definitely is not!! Pictures on Booking did not represent the way the property looks. I didn’t even want to put my things down on anything. There was garbage on the nightstand.

The family running the hotel is making a nice place to stay, including campers, cabins and hotel.
Pros:

Was a convenient location for our Midgard tour. Very simple, basic, not fancy hotel. Had an amazing Aurora Borealis viewing. Breakfast was very nice. Many choices to chose from.

Cons:

They have an honor bar with lots to chose from. The only problem is the difficulty paying. Had to wait for staff to show up. Staffing is at a minimum, practically a self serve hotel, including check in.

Pros:

Very nice farm, tasty breakfast (despite rather limited), very friendly and supportive staff. Great views

Cons:

The drain in the shower did not work properly, and the room got flooded. Its hard to regulate the temperature in the room (we did not manage) and one of our beds was so soft, you can hardly balance on it.
