“Not a good start”
Apart from a loud ugly noise after flushing the toilet, the apartment itself was perfectly fine.

“NOT SUGGESTED FOR WINTER - COLD HOUSE AND NO HOT WATER - MAYBE FOR SUMMER”
Nice position close to an harbour that allow to see the aurora with not so much light.

“No help from staff”
No confirmation was sent to me about which room I will be in or how to get the keys. We just showed up and walked in a room cause the door was unlocked. There were several rooms unlocked with the keys left in the door. I sent an email and messaged their chat but there was no response for the entire night. I got an email the next day and the staff didn't even respond to my question about the room number and key access. We also didn't have some kitchen supplies so we walked over to another unlocked room and got some from there. So some rooms have everything you need and some do not. There is also no curtains in the washroom so the neighbours or anyone walking by can see you

“Good for a stopover to Svolvaer”
Location was good for getting to Svolvaer. Room size was decent, cute inside and had plenty of facilities (like for cooking). Walking distance to Skarungen which is well worth a visit for their sauna and hot tub!

3 out of 4 people found the beds comfortable, enough sockets, comfortable bathroom, the kitchen was well equipped but the pots and pans may be a bit too small to cook for 4, nice location in a pleasant town, straightforward check-in and check-out with no human interaction

.The address in booking.com, and message is different from the final text message, thus was really confusing, we drove to a wrong place. In such a case, you should emphasize there is a difference. Another thing, receiption is from 17 to 23 from the website, but this is not the case. The receiption office is closed, after 19:00 the phone number can not be reached. I also saw several other customer with complaint at receiption. In general, the management of the company is not well organized, and I am not satisfied with the service.
