Rommet var rent. Personalet er hyggelig. Men de må lære seg til å etterse om det er håndkler på plass, nok toalettpapir, såpe og shampo i dispenser, om tv fungerer og om termostat/varmeopplegg fungerer. Man sitter med en følelse av at Scandic burde investere mer i denne flottne lokasjonen folkene so jobber der.

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.
