Helt greit hotell, gammelt og noe slitt men rent og ryddig. Hyggelig personell. God frokost. God plass til parkering rett utenfor. 230v stikkene på parkeringen til motorvarmer/ elbil fungerer ikke, får ikke laderen til å starte pga. jordingsfeil. Prøvde omtrent alle stikkene/ kursene der ute og det var jordfeil på samtlige. Dette bør utbedres/ oppgraderes.

Fantastisk for en familie

Hyggelig hotell med vennlig personale, familievennlige fasiliteter og utmerkede tilknyttede aktiviteter og restaurant. Frokosten var utmerket, middagen i gamma var god og koselig, og omvisningen på Sapmi Park av en lokal samisk jente med egne reinsdyr var ett av feriens høydepunkter. Kombinert med omvisning i Sametinget leverte Karasjok på alle punkter.
