Guest Reviews

- Daniel (7/5): - Ihan siisti asunto hyvällä paikalla ja hiljaisessa talossa. Kylpyhuone/vessa on tilava. Makuuhuoneen sängyssä oli hyvä nukkua ja petivaatteet olivat mukavat. Isompina puutteina: astioita kaapissa likaisina, keittiövälineet vähissä (esim. juustohöylä), kahvinkeittimen tippalukko rikki, keittiön pinnat osittain likaisina. Pienempänä miinuksena se, että asunnossa ei ollut kokovartalopeiliä.
- Davies (6/5): - Easy check in, not too far of a walk from the accommodation, spacious and quite. I did not realise on booking this is an air bnb style apartment rental, not any kind of hotel or serviced apartment. This feels very unethical during a housing crisis.
- Alba (9/5): - El apartamento está genial, muy bien equipado.
Cama cómoda
- niina (6/5): - Huoneiston lattialla oli siellä täällä lasinsiruja
- Opiskelija (8/5): -
- Jose Carlos (10/5): - Estaba muy cerca del centro, aunque Rovaniemi no es tan grande, todo está cerca.
Piso grande para dos personas.
Tiene lavavajillas, lavadora, cafetera, secador,... Bastante bien equipado
Muy bien de temperatura, que se puede ajustar
El propietario responde al momento por cualquier duda o peticion La cocina tiene lo indispensable para dos personas un dia. Es decir 2, o 3 pares de cubiertos, una olla y sarten. Tuvimos que pedir algo de papel higienico, ese mismo dia lo teniamos en el piso.
Los armarios de la habitacion no son para ropa, están hasta arriba con colchones y ropa de cama

- annalisa (9/5): - Ambiente confortevole e pulito
- Gustavo (10/5): Excelente - Apartamento muito espaçoso e aconchegante. Bem completo para quem gosta de cozinhar.
Localização muito boa, a poucos metros do mercado e tem um ponto de ônibus bem em frente.
Fica a 11 min a pé do terminal de trem e a 10 min do centro onde tem as agências de turismo.
- Polina (4/5): Not clean at all, very cold, realy unhelpful host! - The location is good. We arrived at 16:00, which is the official check-in time. We received the code for the key lockbox exactly at 15:56. The key was supposed to be in a lockbox at a restaurant about 15 minutes away from the apartment. However, when we opened the box, there was no key inside.
At the restaurant, some staff members told us that the apartment was not ready yet because it was still being cleaned. Check-out time is 11:00, so there had been five hours to prepare the apartment. The people at the restaurant also said they were not responsible for the apartment.
I contacted the host through Booking.com, but did not receive any response. After about 45 minutes, a man arrived and gave us the key, but he said he was not the host either.
When we finally entered the apartment, there was an extremely strong smell of cleaning chemicals. It was so strong that we couldn’t stay inside, so we had to open the door and windows for about 30 minutes to air it out. Despite the strong smell, the floor still had visible shoe prints and was not clean. My husband ended up cleaning the floor himself so we could walk around without shoes.
There was also no working heating in the room, and the air conditioning could not be regulated, so the apartment was very cold.
- Seppo (3/5): - Lattia aivan täynnä roskaa. Hauska alkaa ensimmäiseksi siivoamaan ennen kuin kehtaat tuoda matkatavarat sisään.
- 莹 (8/5): Det är rent och läget är bra. - Det är rent och läget är väldigt bra. Bussen som går till Santa Claus Village och flygplatsen ligger precis mittemot. Man behöver gå 9 minuter till restaurangen för att hämta nyckeln.

- Eugenie (10/5): -
- Julie (8/5): - La personne qui loue est très communicante et disponible ce qui a facilité les échanges d'informations.
L'appartement donne sur le beau musée d'art contemporain que nous avons visité et où nous avons déjeuné.
La chambre est toute petite mais cosy, idéale pour une nuit.
Salle de bain grande, fonctionnelle et produits de toilette. Le mieux serait de savoir suffisamment à l'avance où récupérer la clé de l'appartement pour ne pas avoir à traverser à nouveau le froid alors qu'on se croit arrivé.
Il nous a semblé que la clim soufflait du froid et qu'il faisait froid, peut être à tord, mais nous avons très bien dormi.
Un poil excentré.

- Jain (8/5): - Room and apartment was good Key picking method could have been better.
- Taina (9/5): Sijainti meille todella sopiva! - Siisti, hyvä sijainti, ei kuulunut ääniä liikenteestä Makuuhuoneessa ei ikkunaa, kattilat puuttuu
- Marie-Therese (8/5): Bien - Proximité gare de bus et train. Appartement très propre et bien équipé. La difficulté pour avoir les clefs, code pas reçu dans les délais.
Éloignement entre la boîte à clefs et l'appartement .
First appart hôtel laisse penser qu'il s'agit d'un appart hôtel alors que c'est un appartement dans une résidence privée.
- Elena (10/5): -
- Francesca (10/5): - Tutto benissimo Unica pecca che devi recuperare le chiavi a 10 minuti dall'appartamento
- Tore (4/5): - Bra beliggenhetr, fin leilighet Fikk ikke tak i utleier da vi skulle parkere bilen. Prøvde å ringe flere ganger. for dårlig, så vi brukte ikke leiligheten. Derfor ble svarene som ovenfor.
- Cosma (8/5): -
- Ahti (9/5): - Ei parkkipaikkaa, kallis yöpyminen parkkisakot kanssa!
- FABIANA (10/5): - Ótima localização. É so atravessar a rua para ir ao shopping.. Andar poucos metros e se deparar com a rua central, toda enfeitada com coisas natalinas. Um encanto. O apartamento é simples, porém tem tudo para uma ótima hospedagem. Possui vários utensílios e equipamentos domésticos. Um otimo chuveiro, com água quentinha. Eu amei! Gostei de tudo.
- Jose Javier (9/5): Acogedor y completo - El apartamento muy acogedor, muy completo tenía de todo, en una ubicación genial. Nos ayudaron también para dejar las maletas para cuando acabamos el alojamiento. Quizás por mencionar algo, falta de parking aunque hay aparcamiento alrededor.
- Elvira (7/5): - Appartamento grazioso e funzionale con tutto l'occorrente per il soggiorno, vicino al centro ed alla fermata dei pullman L'appartamento non corrispondeva a quello prenotato sul sito, sarebbe stato corretto avvisare. Pulizia non proprio eccellente, briciole e macchie sul pavimento, materasso della camera molto molto morbido.
- Mihai (8/5): Unfair and unprofessional - Was by the huge supermarket. We were told the taxi driver will wait for us at the airport, to give us the key for apartment. We have been informed that we had to pay £60 to that taxi driver. He wasn't there. When I got in touch with the agency, I was told I have to find myself a car/taxi to the town centre in order to pick up the key for the apartament. And I've been told I still have to pay £60 to the taxi driver, given that from the key pick up location to the apartament was about a 5 min drive. And, of course, extra £ to get from the airport to the key pick up location. Insane!!
- FARIDEH (10/5): - The apartment was very clean and fully furnished. The key pickup location was far from the apartment, and since it was my first time in Rovaniemi, it was hard to find with just the address. We searched for the key locker for a long time in the cold and darkness.
- Johan (3/5): Smerig, goor en vies - De lokatie, ligt overal dichtbij De hygiëne, verschrikkelijk slecht.
Het bed was gewoon goor, overal lagen haren in bed.
De matras topper zat onder het bloed, de vaat afwas lag nog smerig, de handdoeken niet schoon, onder het bed is het ronduit smerig en vies.
Ookal kwam Niina na een belletje met schone lakens etc, waarvoor dank, maar als het goed schoon was geweest, zoals het moet zijn, was het niet nodig geweest.
Zelfs de slaapbank zit onder de (pret) plekken.
Dit is absoluut geen aanrader, niina kan het niet aan of het is gewoon zo smerig
- QUONIAM (10/5): Very well located accommodation - Spacious accommodation with everything you need. A big thank you to Ninna for her responsiveness and for taking care of something we forgot.
- CAMILLE (7/5): Great location, but be aware that room key is not kept near apartment - Excellent location, right in the city centre very close to shopping centre . Comfortable beds, good kitchen facilities and great having a washing machine provided. Checkin was not available until 1600 which is too late and there was no flexibility in this being changed. There is no luggage storage provided, however, when I contacted the host, she did let me know about a nearby Supermarket that will store luggage for €5/bag for the day.
No check in information was received until exactly 1609, which by this time we had collected our bags and were at the property. We then found out that the key was actually located a 10 min walk away outside a restaurant. This is not acceptable and if the key can’t be kept in the address, then guests should be notified in advance that they will need to walk somewhere else to get the key. The temperature that day was -4 with heavy snow and so we were very unhappy to find this out so late in the day.
We booked the room for 3 adults however they only provided 2 towels and so we had to share towels.

- Jaakko (8/5): - Asunnolla oli toimiva pohja. Huoneisto oli huonosti siivottu. Hiuksia ja hiekkaa oli lattialla. Huonosti pestyjä astioita oli tiskikaapissa.
- CHAN (10/5): -
- Ravi (8/5): - Overall space and facilities The fact that outside it was 2* celcius but inside there was no heating option available. All night cold
- Janika (9/5): -
- Nelli (8/5): - Viihtyisä uudehko asunto kivalla sijainnilla. Loistava hinta. Keittiössä haisi paistorasva ja liesi oli likainen, siinä oli hiuksia ja rasvaa. Emme onneksi tarvinneet laittaa ruokaa. Ruokapöydällä roiskeita sokeripitoisesta juomasta ja lakanoissa laikkuja. Olisiko hienpolttamia jälkiä. Hieman ummehtunut tuoksu lakanoissa.
- Kaisa (9/5): Hyvällä sijainnilla oleva siisti asunto. - Loistava sijainti, uusi rakennus ja siisti asunto. Sohvasta aukeava lisävuode oli toimiva peti kahdelle. Asunnon kalustus oli pienten asioiden osalta epäkäytännöllinen, esim. makuuhuoneessa ja sohvan vieressä kaipaisi kohdevaloja, samoin yöpöytää. Rakennus on liikkunut, joten makuuhuoneen ovi meni huonosti kiinni ja seinissä liikuntasaumoja oli nähtävillä. Astioita oli rajoitetusti, tiskiharjakin olisi ollut kiva. Vaatekaapeista puuttuivat henkarit. Asunto oli eri, kuin mitä kuvissa esiteltiin.

- Sanna-Sofia (8/5): Välietappi matkalla ruskalomalle pohjoiseen - Kiva, uudehko pikkuasunto, kaikki tarvittava löytyi lyhyeen ja miksei myös pitempään majoitukseen, siisti, keskeinen sijainti, avaimet oli helppo noutaa Autopaikka oli vaikea löytää, alueella vain 2-3h kiekkoparkkialueita, lähin maksullinen parkkialue löytyi Skandik Hotellilta, n. 500m.
- Suma (10/5): - The apartment is very neat and process of checkin and checkout is clear. It is in the central location near to attractions. Nothing
- Tiia (9/5): - Meille sijainti oli täydellinen.
- Roser (10/5): -
- Andreas (9/5): Eine echte Empfehlung für einen Aufenthalt in Rovaniemi. - Es ist ein sehr gutes Apartment. Die Ausstattung ist modern und die Sauberkeit ist absolut top. Die Besitzer sind sehr hilfsbereit und freundlich, die Beschreibungen sind ok. Es wird vor der Buchung nicht klar, dass der Schlüssel an einer Adresse 1km entfernt abgeholt werden muss.
Es gibt zwar einen Privatparkplatz in einer Tiefgarage im Haus, aber es wird vor der Buchung nicht klar, dass dafür Kosten von 15€ pro Tag zusätzlich anfallen.

- Matteo (8/5): Interesting - Very Nice Flat in a good position situated near the city centre It's not so practical to withdraw the key in another place not very near to the flat.
- Tatjana (10/5): -
- Sanna (9/5): -
- Katja (9/5): - Luulin että se haetaan vaan ravintolasta, mutta booking :iin oli tullut myöhemmin viesti missä avain on ja koodista avainlokeroon. En ollut ollenkaan katsonut viestejä, enkä ymmärtänyt/tiennyt/ huomannut ohjetta että minun pitää tulopäivänä mennä lukemaan booking :n viestit johon oli tullut tarkemmat ohjeet, joita en heti löytänyt. Soittelu jälkeen majoittaja kertoi koodin toiselle henkilölle joka kävi avaamassa lokeron. Loppu hyvin, kaikki hyvin.
- petri (7/5): - Sijainti Epäsiisti, likainen, huonosti siivottu. Lakanat haisi hielle

- Mei (5/5): Will not consider to come back this apartment since we are the one cannot bear for the cold weather to walk . - The property is very small, not enuf for load 3 luggage , the house is clean , facilities is good , however we need to go to other place which is 15 min walk away from the apartment in the cold weather. Avoid this place if you cannot walk .
- Sacha (10/5): Exceptional - Very neat cosy flat in an excellent location. All amenities are nearby and the flat is all brand new. Would definitely recommend
- Kok (10/5): Exceptional -
- Vijaya (1/5): Key collection point is too far from property which is a red flag for foreign tourists. I have not checkin and avoided - Location key collection point is 1KM away from the property which is red flag. Better avoid this property.
- Jenny (2/5): Great apartment but worst worst customer experience - Clean, good location First we receive a a message to give us the password to access the apartment then when we arrived they say that we need to ta le the key from a restaurant when it’s -10 degree outside !
The only solution given was to go to take a taxi at our expense or go by walk retrieve the key.
The worst worst experience .
Worst host.
To avoid absolutely!
- Mildrose (10/5): Niinas was absolutely amazing at helping us out! I left some really valuable items and even sent them right away. The ap - The property location is superb! Close proximity to restaurants and shopping center. Nothing to like
- Elias (9/5): Superb -
- Clarence (9/5): A clean, conveniently-located hotel offering a peaceful stay, though with basic amenities. - This place offers a convenient and comfortable stay. The location is a major plus, being close to both the airport and a local mall which made transportation and shopping hassle-free. The atmosphere is wonderfully cosy and serene, providing a peaceful retreat. I was particularly impressed with the cleanliness throughout the property. While we enjoyed our stay, it doesn't provide WiFi service. The rooms, though well-maintained, might be a bit tight for family of 4.
