Dejligt hotel
Hyggeligt hotel med sæde og venlige personaler. Værelset pænt og rent men der kunne godt have været et køleskab. Det var der så i underetagen. Kaffe, the og diverse juicer til fri afbenyttelse hele døgnet. Dejlig morgen buffet. Så tak fra os. 4 stjerner.

Hyvin varusteltu kuntosali. Ison, mielenkiintoisen näköisen saunan käyttö sisältyy yöpymisen hintaan kuten kuntosalikin.

Wonderful place to stay. I arrived by bus from Kirkenes and the bus stops at the door.
Short down hill walk to the village centre, not much there.
The Sami Parliament is located here, beautiful building.

Godt hotel.
Ikke særlig god info ved check in, bl. a. blev det ikke nævnt at der var gratis kaffe og hvor det var. Det defekte toilet sæde blev skiftet prompte. Lidt lydt på værelset. Morgenmad var supergodt, spejlæg og det hele. Bacon skal være sprøde, det kender de ikke til i Norge 😅 Vi overnattede 2 nætter, fine muligheder for vandreture.

Hotelli ja huone oli siisti ja erityisesti kylpyhuoneen siisteys ilahdutti.
Huone oli kuuma ja kylpyhuone hirvittävän kuuma, josta sanoinkin lähtiessämme.
Huone oli mukavan tilava ja se on tärkeää, että mahtuu esim. avaamaan matkalaukut.
