Nice Location and Clean

The kitchen was big, with lots of seating, and had everything you might need. Room was clean and comfortable. Great location to the town. Plenty of free parking.

  • Thin(ish) walls/ceiling. My room was at the top of the stairs, so could get loud with folks walking up and down the stairs, and with the family (kids running?) on the 3rd floor.

Location. Walking distance to everything except of course the glacier which is a short drive away. Plenty showers and toilets. Well equipped kitchen with free soup, popcorn, coffee and tea.
