enchanting nights under the arctic sky
adjustable bednorthern lightsglass igloo
i booked a four person glass igloo. it was wonderful for viewing the northern lights within the village because there is very little outside light influence. i could go outside the room or stay inside the igloo to view and photograph the aurora. the bed adjusted electrically to different angles to suit viewing preference.
the sheets had stains. i found the decoration tacky. the rooms felt too small for the price.
