10/10 Excellent
"Pretty good place to stay. It does get a bit noisy around two a.m. since people come back from seeing the aurora, but if you’re part of that crowd or don’t mind, it’s okay. The owner is quite helpful and accommodating, and sets clear rules for the house. You share the bathroom with other people, but it mainly remains clean. The malls are around ten minutes away by foot, and it’s easy to get to. Meals aren’t provided, but you can bring food in yourself. Overall, I’d say it’s more than worth it for the price."

Malls have no shops. One grocery shop, independent few blocks away. Had a bad experience at Mark's restaurant- old or can food and chicken dish did not seems fresh. One Indian restaurant Bluexxx was OK. Hotel NOVA was looking better. Room was cleaned with utensils but standard room we have seems old but OK. Oh yeah Free laundry helped.
