The water was broken and there was no water. I couldn't use the toilet or shower.It was inconvenient that there was no one at the check-in. I had requested someone to pick me up at the airport, but there was no one there.

Hostel with minimal amenities but nothing crucial missing. The only challenge was regulating heat in the room on warmish nights, but we figured out how to block open the window so that it wouldn’t squeak or bang. I would definitely stay there again.

Only used as a base for stays outside but it served its purpose quite well. Bit far "out of town" but then nothing is really far so that isn't really a problem. Arguably it is a bit basic here but it does not pretend to be anything other than that and if you come to Greenland expecting different things then you are probably not being realistic.

Old Camp is exactly as it describes itself: basic shared facilities in a spectacular setting. The rooms are functional and very clean. The shared areas are useful and comfortable. The staff is outstanding! There is regular transportation to the other end of town, but the walk is easy, peaceful, and lovely. And even though Kangerlussuaq is small, staying in Old Camp feels more like getting out into the country.

Basically it is far from everything you need The receptionist was very nice and helpful but if you arrive off time after 4 pm. all you get is to retrieve a key in an envelope so forget buying a drink or chocolate bar. You have to walk back to the airport 20 minutes away. They do have bus service when you arrive and leave, but between that, the schedule is irregular. When my flight got in 3 hours late, I was told I would have to wait another hour for service. The rooms with not even a sink, they have 3 toilets and a few showers for 15 rooms. Oh yes, the 8 x 10 rooms can cost close to 200$ Sorry, but at that price you can find way better. Finally, their policy of no cancellation refund when you are traveling in the Arctic with being at the mercy of weather is a little too rigid for my taste.

Not the best
Nice view of the northern lights if you're lucky. That was the best thing about this place, which is falling apart. They take very little pride in the facilities, and definitely not the service. The breakfast was limited, they expect you to make/unmake your own bunk beds, which are all broken and shattered. We alerted reception to this issue but they did not care. The cleaners come to your room at 8:50 and demand you clean your room and leave - checkout is at 9AM. Reception is rarely open, making it difficult to resolve issues such as the showers and toilets smelling like sewage. For 120 Euros, it's extremely overpriced.

We get free upgrade to hotel Kangerlussuaq, just inside the airport, but have to carried luggage up and down for check.in/check-out and to the room. The room is very small but comfortable. We managed to capture northern light just outside the hotel.
