Toimiva, mutta ehkÀ vÀhÀn kauhtunut.

Majoituin molemmissa, siis hotelli ja hostelli puolissa. Molemmissa fiilis on vÀhÀn kulahtanut, mutta hyvin tuli nukuttua. Plussaa oli kun takapihalta pÀÀsi pulahtamaan jÀrveen uimaan. Palvelu oli ystÀvÀllistÀ ja aamupalalla jaksoi pitkÀlle pÀivÀÀn. Historiallisen pitkÀ hellejakso takasi, ettei tarvinnut palella ulkona, eikÀ sisÀllÀ.

Positiivinen yllÀtys

Valitsimme yhden yön yöpymiseen edullisen hostellin hotellin sijaan. Hinta kahdelta oli 80e sisÀltÀen aamupalan. Huone oli tilava ja viihtyisÀ. Yleiset tilat oli somistettu kivasti. Aamupala oli maittava ja oli monipuolinen tarjonta, mitÀ emme tÀhÀn hintaan kyllÀ osanneet odottaa.

Mukava hotelli

Huoneet ja vastaanotto todella mukavat, aamupala hyvĂ€. Ei pekonia ja munakokkelia, mutta karjalanpiirakat ja lihapasteijat löytyivĂ€t leikkeleiden, puuron, jugurtin jne lisĂ€ksi. Myös vohvelit👍 Keskustan ruokapaikkoihin n. 2 km, mutta hotellilla oli jotain pakasteannoksia myös mahdollisuus ostaa ja valmistaa.

Toimiva ja siisti hoteli ystÀvÀllisellÀ palvelulla

Siisti, rauhallinen ja toimiva majoituspaikka erittÀin ystÀvÀllisellÀ palvelulla. Tilavat huoneet, hyvÀt sÀngyt ja iso tv. Hotellilta mahdollusuus vuokrata edullisesti mm. lumikenkiÀ, jotka saaatiin kÀtevÀsti mukaan Riisitunturin patikoinnille. Pihassa olevat porot toivottivat matkaajat tervetulleiksi.

pihalle olevat porot oli kiva lisÀ, henkilökunta oli ystÀvÀlllistÀ. Huoneessa oli todella kylmÀ, lattialla veti rajusti. (ulkona oli -15) Aamupala oli ketjuhotelleihin verrattuna suppea mutta sai sillÀ aamun kÀyntiin. Ruokailutilassa oli sellainen vanhan talon tuoksu. Huoneissa oli tehty talon ikÀÀn nÀhden remonttia ja sisustettu ihan jees, paljon piuhoja pintavedoilla, itse piti laittaa telkkarin virtapiuha.. Hintaansa nÀhden ehkÀ pienoisesti alakanttiin kokemuksena enkÀ usko palaavani enÀÀ toiste.

Edullinen majoitus viiihtyisÀssÀ superior-huoneessa. Ainoana miinuksena vaatimaton ÀÀnieristys. HyvÀ sauna ja uima-allas, joka tosin oli tilapÀisesti pois kÀytöstÀ, kÀytettÀvissÀ pienellÀ lisÀmaksulla. Runsas ja maistuva aamupala.
