Reviewer Type: Couple

Travel Purpose: leisure

Positive: The view of the glacier was a stunning backdrop for an overnight stay. The mini kitchen was well equipped. Netflix on the tv is great. We liked that it’s a little out of the town which was quieter with all the choppers. There is a fan to circulate air. The setup with a lounge was great for relaxing.

Negative: No ac- which isn’t usually a problem but we had a warm day. The kitchen doesn’t have a sink- use the bathroom. The beds are on the firmer side.

Summary: Amazing view, good value for money!
