Didn’t find check in person very helpful. Breakfast very average. Stayed 2 nights, room wasn’t serviced although we did get clean towels when requested. No soap left in dispensers so lucky we had our own. Lady at check out was a lot friendlier and helpful to get a taxi to airport. Overall we would still stay as such a novelty…..The people at the reindeer farm we so lovely and such a nice experience and of course Santa was such a joy to visit.
