Located in a wood 4km away from city center with quite environment. Got kitchen and washing and drying facilities. Comfortable bed and heated floor in bathroom for morning shower. Little light pollution to see northern light and star. Taxi is easily accessible with hotline. Recommended for people who like quite environment and like to get away from a city center.

Yhden yön majoitus

Mukava yhden yön paikka keskellä kaunista ympäristöä. Kaikki perustarpeet oli hyvät. Huone oli perushyvä, joskin pikaisesti siivottu. Ilmanvaihtoa ei ollut, mutta ikkunan sai avattua. Aamupala tarjottiin 4min ajomatkan päässä yöpymispaikasta, oli hyvä.

Super schöne Unterkunft wir waren begeistert. 3,4 Kilometer von Saariselka entfernt zu Fuß gut erreichbar. Mit langlauf skiern, knapp 15 min durch den Wald. Super schön Loipe 1 minute von der Unterkunft entfernt. Direkt im Waldgebiet total idyllisch wir sind totale Natur Menschen.In der freien Wildbahn genau an der Hütte ein kleines Rentier gesehn war toll.Die erste halbe stunde die wsr da waren bei der Unterkunft gegegen 23 uhr sind wir noch raus gegangen und in der Sekunde haben wir die Nordlichter( aurora)sehen dürfen einfach nur magisch.

Upea luonnonläheinen majoitus!

Sauna ja uima-allas iso plussa. Nettisivut olivat hieman sekavat, mutta onneksi päädyimme Outa-majoitukseen. Huoneistomajoitus sopi meille loistavasti. Siisteydessä (pölyistä) oli hieman toivomisen varaa.
