The overall experience was great. The desk staff was super friendly and helpful. We had a view that overlooked the beach which was so nice. The only complaint was there were multiple light bulbs out in our room. It did not lessen our experience however.

The air-conditioning wasn't working in the 1st room when I called to report it to the front desk they just said to open a window and to wait to get colder. I asked to be moved into another room. Second room was better but lack on door was broken and the railing on the balcony was damaged. Rooms were not clean there was dust everywhere and the sheets were stained. Wouldn't probably stay there again

It was clean and loved looking at the northern lights from my balcony. My sons went to swim in pool but they were overwhelmed by the chlorine smell and decided not to tempt it. Check in was easy, staff were nice. No issues. Good stay.

There was a blood stain on my sheets and on the other bed there was a little black hairs up by their Pillows. Originally, the check in guy was pretty nice, but the next couple of people were very, well, just not really altogether there. If you’re into dark, dingy, decrepit places this might be the spot for you.
