9.1 Wonderful
Pros:Very attentive and knowledgeable staff, unique atmosphere, great expeditions, plenty of cool places to read, hangout, play games, watch the sky, etc. Centrally located in downtown Longyearbyen
Cons:Room was a bit difficult if I'd had a partner come with me as they were very small (yet comfortable) bunk-beds, also, you have to remove your shoes every time you come in, and it would've been nice if the hotel would provide "indoor" shoes to all the guests, as I was okay with removing my shoes, but didnt like walking around in my socks everywhere I went in the hotel.
