    Nice stay but have in mind that the cabins (cottages) are tiny.

    Nice location, cute cabin. Bathroom was very small and the shower was just a drain in the floor and water got everywhere

    Liked : Nice location near the glacier. Private bathroom in cabin

    Disliked : Shower was not really a shower - just a cordoned off corner of the small bathroom and water got everywhere. Blinds would not stay down (kept rolling up).

    Great location

    Liked : Exceptional location, lovely cottage and strong wifi

  • ElizavetaCyprus · Jul 21, 2025 9Exceptional

    А small house, everything you need in the kitchen. there was no hair dryer and no screens on the windows to keep out bit

    Liked : There is enough space for three people, the house is designed for 4 sleeping places

    Disliked : Very bright light in the kitchen, no light bulb in the lamp in the sleeping area in the kitchen - but it's not critical. The house was warm, clean, there was water in the shower and towels for each guest
