Rentouttava ja kaunis hotelli
Mukava kokemus hienossa hotellissa. Todella upeat maisemat ja huoneemme oli päivitetty parempaan veloituksetta. Se oli positiivinen yllätys. Huone oli siisti ja hiljainen. Aamulla yläkerrasta kuului hieman aamupalasta ääniä mutta se ei haitannut. Yleiset tilat oli rauhalliset ja oli rentouttavaa istua viinilasillisen ääressä ja katsoa maisemia takkatulen ääressä.

Kaikki sujui hienosti. Kysymällä onnistui myös myöhäinen uloskirjautuminen.

Palvelu osattiin
Rec vastaanotto kymppi.
Lappi-illallinen liki kymppi, monipuolinen ja paikallisuus erinom esillä, poronkäristystä voisi kokki hiukan viilata perinteiseksi.
Tarjoilupalvelu ja koko palvelukokonaisuus erinomaista.
Siisteys kymppi, tätä arvostan "isosti"!!!
Uusittu sauna kympoi!!

Gemütliche Unterkunft
Hotel ist schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen, aber trotzdem gemütlich. Frühstück war vielfältig. Super Ausgangspunkt für Ausflüge in die umliegenden Nationalparks. Sehr schnelle Internetleitung ermöglicht das mobile arbeiten.

Lämminhenkinen ja mukava
Lämmin ilmapiiri ja siisti hotelli. Ilmainen parkkipaikka hotellin edessä. Lähellä (muutaman kilometrin päässä) Rukan keskustaa. Mahdollisuus saunoa halutessaan (poreallas ei ollut käytössä). Ihana, rentouttava takkahuone jonka isoista ikkunasta upea näkymä. Aamiainen monipuolinen ja herkullinen.
