United States of AmericaGreat location in the heart of town. Very helpful, kind staff. Each room is a little different, all cute and comfortable. In June 2021, we had 301 and in February 2023 we had 308. Both were lovely with small but functional kitchen and sofa area, and easy access to outdoor deck for stargazing. Endless supply of Nespresso pods. Front desk provides wake-up calls in case of Northern Lights. Windows open for fresh air. Walking distance to restaurants, harbor, museums, shops, historical sites. Highly recommend!
