- ying han Jenny (8/5): I am grateful that I can see the aurora in this place for two nights. - I didn't expect there to be an elevator. If there could be a smart TV, that would be great!

Edvard was a wonderful host—friendly, highly responsive, and provided clear instructions that made our check-in smooth and hassle-free.

- Adriana (10/5): - Localização excelente e ótimo apartamento. O cheiro ruim muito forte dentro da geladeira. Não era possível usá-la de tão forte o cheiro. As poucas vezes que abri, o cheiro se espalhava pelo apartamento e era necessário abrir a janela.

- Pavlína (10/5): Doporučuji. - Ubytování bylo čisté a dobře zařízeno. Umístění přímo v centru, kousek od zastávky autobusu, Arktikum i zážitkových agentur.
Navíc jsme nevěděli, že majitel nabízí sám různé aktivity. My využili hike v národním parku, ze kterého jsme byli nadšeni. Strávili jsme zde dvě noci a za tu dobu nám nic nechybělo, ani nevadilo. :)

- Fuyumi (10/5): -
- María (10/5): - Location is perfect. The host left us some just-made coffee, and some sweets and fruits for the trips. They also prepared some Christmas decorations to make the stay more cozy! The only "inconvenience" is that the shower does not have a rim and water may spill a bit
- Sofia (8/5): - Posizione perfetta e appartamento essenziale. Comunicazione con lo staff ottima L’edificio dell’appartamento andrebbe rinnovato

- Regina (10/5): - Esta ubicado en el centro. Las instalaciones están en buen estado. El personal fue amable, estuvo al pendiente de nosotras y estuvo disponible para darnos recomendaciones de la ciudad y tours.
- Leonardo (10/5): - The apartment was perfect on every side, from the cleanliness to the amenities (even a bunch of table games!). The bed was really comfortable and the main room was warm, a nice place to come back after a chilly day. Both me and my friend agreed about how nice were the hosts, probably the kindest we've met. The location is in the exact centre of Rovaniemi. I really struggle to find any flaws to our stay and cannot recommend it enough!
- linda (10/5): - Posizione super centrale
- Sonja (10/5): -
- di prima (10/5): - Siamo state molto contente dell'appartamento e dello staff che ci ha seguito.
- Onur (10/5): Best for price/performace - Easy to communicate with the owner. The location is really central. Small, but everything is available. I really like most of the things. There is only 2 improvement points. The bed was small for 2 people. Also, the boiler was not fully clean (There were black dots).
- Lawes (9/5): - Location was close to supermarket, shops, restaurants and local tourist information shop.
The apartment was was comfortable and very clean. Nothing really.
- barrow (10/5): - Nice an clean, great location
- Jani (10/5): - Sijainti kiva ja paljon ajan kulua olk tarjolla kuten pelejä ja elokuvia. Liikenteen äänet ei juuri kuulunut sisälle vaikka keskustan asunto Peitto ja tyynyt aikansa eläneitä, uudet llisi kiva. Ikävä kyllä oli ikkunaremontin aika joka hieman herätteli aamusta. Remontti kuiten valmis lähi aikoina.
- Vladimir (10/5): Все было очень хорошо! - Квартира расположена в самом центре города. Рядом крупные торговые центры, парк, набережная. Место тихое. Квартира хоть и небольшая (на фото казалась больше), но уютная. Кухонька небольшая, но есть все, чтобы приготовить завтрак или обед. Очень большая кровать, занимает почти половину комнаты, но для двух любящих людей оно того стоит.))
- Mayu (10/5): お勧めです!! - オーナーの連絡がとてもスピーディーで安心感がありました。
アメニティが豊富で、コーヒーや紅茶を飲んでゆっくり過ごすことができました。
全体的に清潔感がありました。 部屋の鍵が開けづらかった。(鍵をまわすのにコツが必要だった)
- Heike (8/5): - Es war alles vorhanden,was man brauchte.
Lage war in Ordnung
- Frösén (8/5): -
- CHIOU-HUNG (10/5): - Flexible +location +high cp value...most important warmly and consideration for woman ...we like very much..in the downtown nearby have a Expesso house (good coffee and dessert )...anyway stongly suggest ..have it in u pocket .
- Ieva (9/5): - The apartment was lovely! Compact but had everything we needed including some leftover tea/toiletries etc. We stayed during the summer and it was a really good value for money. The location was central and it was just a short walk to the river and the main shops. The host was lovely and very accommodating. We stayed during the heatwave and it was unbearable heat wise. We had the fan on and/or windows open but nothing helped! I think this shouldn’t be an issue during the rest of the months.
There’s no parking outside of the property which is worth noting although didn’t bother us. Overall highly recommend!

- Pirkko (8/5): - Asunnon sijainti oli erinomainen ja hinta laatusuhde kohdillaan. Asunnonta löytyi kaikki tarpeellinen. Vastaanotto oli ystävällistä ja pääsimme asuntoon toiveemme mukaisesti aikaisemmin. Asunnossaan kaikki muuten ok, mutta sänky olisi voinut olla hieman parempi, yöunista tuli aika kehnot.
- Kairi (8/5): -
- Alina (10/5): - Super liebe Gastgeber - wir durften auch deutlich früher einchecken
- Luther (9/5): - Sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit
- sari (10/5): Keskustassa, hyvillä mukavuuksilla, joustavilla sisään ja ulos kirjautumisajoilla. - Ystävällinen palvelu.
Nopeat vastaukset. Keskustassa. Helppo löytää.
Kahvinkeitin. Täällä oli esim teetä, hygieniatuotteita.
Hissi. Hiljainen kerrostalo. Iso pöytätuuletin.
Huoneistosta sai ikkunoita auki.
Tosi joustavat sisälle ja ulos kirjautumisajat. Seinäkellokin oli. Kaapissa lautapelejä. Ei ole sellaista
- Kekkeroosi (7/5): Regular, tidy apartment in the center location host by foreigners. Good value! - The apartment was clean and tidy. The central location was very good. There was a nominated parking spot. The hosts were friendly, responsive and flexible. I shortly met both hosts (husband and wife) in person. Good value! The host requested to be present when check out early, because I had their only one copy of the keys. The flat was really hot in summer. The place was a little tricky to find, because there are no signs saying "Polar Apartment" or anything.

- Nerine (10/5): Exceptional -
- Reetta (10/5): Exceptional - Small and cozy apartment, very tidy and perfect location
- Ratih (9/5): The place is in the center so it is an easy access from the bus/train station and go nearby. -
- Kervin (10/5): Exceptional - Good place to stay, location is perfect and the host is responsive, Highly recommended
- Raghvi (5/5): Passable - The owner of the property was rude
- Joel (9/5): Superb - The placement was amazing, you could get anywhere in Rovaniemi very easily since it was so well-situated in the centre: it's near all kinds of stories, from restaurants, clothes shops, cafés, pubs, grocery stores, etc.
We liked that we found lots of condiments and other basic food supplies in the pantry, so it was easy to cook..
The hosts were very kind, they even offered us a ride from the train station, which was smooth and quick, they also answered fast to messages and we didn't have any problems regarding the personnel.
In addition, we liked that the apartment had touristic information about the city and entertainment, which surprisingly includes DVDs, a DVD player and a XBOX 360 (which we couldn't figure out how to turn on xD). No aluminium foil or baking paper :/ the blanket was quite small for two people. The kitchen was quite small, very little counter space and no dishwasher or laundry machine (though there is a 24h self service laundromat behind the train station).
- Tracey (7/5): Great sized Apartment within walking distance to shops, adventure providers and public transport - Our host met us outside the apartment to hand over the keys. We arrived in the morning and she kindly allowed us early access to the apartment.
The apartment was located just off the main shopping arcade so was very easy to walk to the shopping malls and to our activity provider when we went snowmobiling. The bus stop to Santa Claus Village was close-by as well.
The apartment was larger than we had expected with everything in it that we needed for our 3 night stay.
Our wonderful host even drove us to the train station on the day of our departure which was much appreciated The apartment is on the 3rd floor and there is no lift so you need to carry your luggage up the stairs. It was OK for us but some might struggle
- Kaela (10/5): Great location, responsive host - Great location, very clean house and super responsive host. The property was up 2 flights of stairs. While this was fine for us, it's just something to note if you have difficulty with stairs :)
