FAQs and Answers!
1/ Question: Do I have to supply and cook my own breakfast?
Answer: Yes! At Embleton House due to Covid 19 we will no longer supply breakfast foods but you are welcome to bring food to Embleton House for your meals. All we ask is for the safety of your self and others that you sanitize groceries before storing them in the cupboards and refrigerator.
2/ Question: What time does the aurora come out?
Answer: I would like to say that we turn on the aurora switch every night at 9 PM but the truth of the matter is we can not predict the time they will be out. They normally show, every-night but you may not see them it if it is overcast. When it is dark and the sky is clear most often you will get a good viewing. The Aroura can be there one minute and not the next or be out for hours. Sometimes it appears and disappears quickly and change colors often depending on the solar winds. If you really want to see it you need to stay out there or you will miss it.
3/ Question: What kind of cloths do I need for out doors in winter?
Answer: You need warm cloths when you go out in winter. I suggest layered clothing and good foot wear and warm socks. You should have a hoodie with a draw string. I find wearing a hoodie under a coat and being able to tie the hood around your neck to keep the wind out, really helpful. You will need a good hat, mitts, wind pants, long under-ware. Long sleeved shirts are also great.
4/ What do i need to wear indoors in winter:
Answer: You will want warm socks and slippers, long pants and long sleeves. Often when you come in from out-doors you will be chilled. Northerners when his happens layer up their clothing. Heating is expensive so rather then turn up the heat most do this and helps get rid of the chills, quickly.
5. Question: what type of clothing do I need in Summer?
Answer: Our summer temperatures can be as warm as +35 but these temperatures do not last long. Our normal summer temperature is about 21 to 27 C. So normal summer cloths are desirable but one should consider that there are times when it can be cool and bugs can be bothersome.
6/ Question: Do you have rooms service:
Answer: During the Covid 19 pandemic we have suspended that service. Instead we supply enough towels to sustain your stay.
7/ Question: Who will look after our garbage?
Answer: Under the counter are bags for garbage recycles and compost. When needed guests are ask to tie them up notify us and place them out side their door for pickup.
8/ Question: Do we look after our own rooms?
Answer: Yes, in order to minimize contact during this pandemic crisis we have a minimum contact policy to protect guests and us from the Covid 19 crisis.
9/ Question: When do our sheets get changed?
Answer: We change sheets every seven days, or when requested.
10/ Question: When can we get clean towels.?
Answer: With each stay guests are provided enough towels for the duration of their stay. They will be placed in a drawer for easy access. We will still be asking you to practice environmentally sound practices but using your towels more then once. if you run short of towels you can request more
11/ Question: Do we have to remove our shoes in the house?
Answer: Yes. At Embleton House we have always had a remover your shoes rule for the following reasons.
(a) These days it is desirable due to the fact we are an environmentally friendly business that strives to keep dust to a minimum for allergy sufferers.
(b) It is a big help in controlling dust and contamination from the street that may spread the Covid 19 virus to remove our shoes in the house
12/ What about cell service?
Answer: In Yellowknife at the present time we have two cell phone providers- BELL and Tellus. Check with your cell provider to see if you need roaming for NWT.
