Liked: a great place for travelers, open-minded people who like nature - upon arrival you are immediately there, upon departure - you check in your luggage and return to the campsite for coffee, plenty of space in the tent, clean, warm and well-equipped kitchen, helpful staff, adequate number of bathrooms, close you can swim, possibly a microwave would be useful.

Non-electric earth tent pitch
Liked: Un ambiente caldo e accogliente dove puoi apprezzare la vicinanza alla natura al 100 %
Disliked: Purtroppo stare sopra al permafrost vuol dire che fa un po’ freddino.

From the manager: Hi Silvia, We know it can be cold in the Arctic, specially if you come from a warm country. But good to read that you liked your stay with us. Thanks for the high score and welcome back another time.

Liked: La amabilidad de Martyna, la gente que conocí en el camping y Fenris el husky. La cercanía con el aeropuerto y las Costas, inmejorables.
Disliked: Creo que con los sucesos que ocurrieron en 2015 y 2020 deberían mejorar todavía mas condiciones de seguridad. Una valla electrificada y Fenris no són suficiente a mi entender para dar total seguridad al huesped.

From the manager: Thanks for your review. Of course we hoped to get a higher rate, but it is good to read that you like to come back. To work on further improvements, I like to know what you mean with the happening in 2015. The only happening at the campsite was that we were open for the solar eclipse. When you refer to the bear in 2020, this was the only time a bear visited the campsite in 42 years. The electric fence system is a proven system against bears during camping in the wild since 2009. Welcome back anaother time.
