We had no heat from the radiator. I called the phone line for the host and they had no solutions. They could not get me another space heater. They could not explain why the radiator did not work. The room was in the low 50s all night and very cold and uncomfortable, and we barely slept. The radiator had worked and we had heat. It would’ve been a very pleasant stay

I loved staying at the Aurora Igloo North. I fell asleep watching clouds and stars. I woke up seeing horses and mountains. My room was very clean. The room had a heater and a fan. The bed was heated and had the most luxurious comforters so I wasn't cold in the middle of the night. Someone attends to the kitchen and shared bathrooms throughout the day, so the places stay tidy and well stocked with clean fluffy towels. When I showered at 6pm the shower gel was empty and still empty the next morning at 7am. I used the plentiful shampoo instead to wash my body so it was fine. Sometimes there is a short wait to use the bathroom. The kitchen has a complimentary coffee machine and tools to cook even though I didn't use them. For the price, I think this place was a great value for such a unique and lovely experience.

This was a very cozy and relatively private igloo. We chose it for clear view should there have been northern lights. There were none during our stay but it was still a great stop. Lovely expansive view. I wasn't expecting it to be so close to the main road with relatively bright lighting as a result. The common area was nice and clean with adequate bathrooms for the number of people during the times we came to the space.

Très bonne expérience, le concept est génial et des masques et bouchons sont fournis si vous oubliez les votres. La vue était très agréable. À noter, il fait très vite froid pendant la nuit et chaud pendant la journée, mais des radiateurs et fenêtres sont présents.
