Guest Reviews
- Pekkanen (10/5): -
- J.O.S.E.B.A. (6/5): ESTANCIA PUNTUAL - MUY BUEN DESAYUNO. MUCHO RUIDO EN LA RECEPCIÓN.
NO SE RESPETA EN NINGÚN MOMENTO EL DESCANSO DE LOS HUÉSPEDES.
EN LAS NORMAS FIGURA; SILENCIO DE 23 - 07H (Y EN LA RECEPCIÓN, PASADAS LAS 23H; RISAS Y VOZ EN TONO ALTO). MUY MAL DESCANSO.
- Hathif (7/5): -
- Joni (8/5): - Aamiainen oli hyvä, uunituoreet vohvelit on herkullisia.
- Selina (8/5): Schönes Haus, das aber mehr pflege benötigt. - Das Haus ist sehr schön und an einer guten Lage. Man ist schnell mit dem Auto im Dorf. Sauberkeit.
Duvet und Kissen und Bettwäsche mit Flecken. Muss umbedingt ersetzt werden. Für den Preis der Unterkunft nicht vertretbar.
- Annika (10/5): - Ihana tunnelma❤️, tosi hyvä aamupala.
- Vendula (9/5): Perfect family atmosphere - Very nice owner, very rich breakfast, the bus stop in front of the house, the lake behind the house and the sauna included. The price in this locality is fine. I would recommend!
- Tuomo (8/5): -
- Annette (8/5): -
- Tapio (9/5): - Hyvä aamiainen
- Helena (9/5): Voi suositella! - Vieraanvarainen, tuttavallinen ja palvelualtis henkilökunta loi tervetulleen tunnelman. Aamupala oli runsas ja joka aamu erilainen herkullinen kakku komeili lisukkeena. Saimme kätevästi ostaa eväsleivät hiihtoretkelle. Saunassa oli joka ilta hyvät löylyt. Pihan kodassa oli mukava kota, jossa grillasimme. Majapaikka on sopivan etäisyyden päässä laduilta, lasketteluhisseiltä ja kaupoilta.
- Reima (9/5): -
- Timo (9/5): Parempi kuin odotin🤗👍 - Sänky, sauna, aamupala, kodinomainen. Yllätyksiä ei ilmennyt, tiedossa oli mitä odottaa.
- Veera (10/5): -
- Vesa (9/5): - Hyvä ystävällinen palvelu.

- Särkinen (10/5): -
- Jani (8/5): mukava majoitus, hintalaatusuhde hyvä - hyvä aamupala, mukava henkilökunta
- Annalisa (7/5): Unica opzione leggermente più economica in zona - Ottima colazione dolce e salata, la presenza di un piccolo bar alla reception e la cucina in comune con un contenitore a camera in frigo.
Buona posizione e ampio parcheggio disponibile La situazione doccia è insostenibile. La zona doccia è condivisa con la sauna, per cui ci si può accedere solo su "prenotazione" in reception. Non il massimo dover aspettare fino a mezzanotte per lavarsi dopo una giornata di sport.
La struttura è piuttosto vecchia, le pareti sottilissime (disclaimer!! Si possono chiedere tappi per le orecchie in reception!) e entra molta luce dalla finestra e non c'è possibilità di oscurarla completamente. Il gocciolio del riscaldamento davvero fastidioso e l'aria in camera molto secca, ho faticato a respirare.
- Emma (10/5): - Super dans l'ensemble Le petit déjeuner super et gratuit, la chambre géniale et l'organisation pour le saune superbe.
La douche est au sauna, il faut penser a la prendre quand on y vas. Pas de lavabo dans la cuisine mais il y en a dans la chambre
- Heidi (7/5): - Mõnus saun, maitsev hommikusöök, väga sõbralik personal. Väga mugavad tekid ja padjad. Veidi väsinud olemisega, ootamatu, et tuba asus keldrikorrusel.
- TIMO (9/5): Loistava pikaloma irtiotto arjesta. - Ruka tuvan aamupala ylitti kaikki odotukseni. Aamupala oli vähintäänkin hotellitasoa.
Sijainti loistavasti Skibus pysäkin kohdalla. Henkilökunta ystävällisiä.
- Bártová (8/5): - Velmi příjemný personál,vynikající slané i sladké snídaně vč.malin nejlepších co jsem kdy jedla, každý den sauna v ceně, všude krásně teplo a čisto. Nešly otevřít okna,takže nebylo možno občas vyvětrat
- Kiviniemi (10/5): -
- HF (8/5): -
- Del Regno (9/5): - Spazio molto accogliente e carino, ottimo rapproto qualità prezzo e personale gentilissimo. L'unico problema sononle docce perchè sono collegate con la sauna quindi se qualcuno sta facendo la sauna non si puó utilizzare la doccia
- Anne (7/5): Motellitason majoitus - Sijainti oli kohtuullisen hyvä. Perhesaunan mahdollisuus ja aamupala oli hyvä. Yhteistilasta ja käytävältä äänet kuuluivat seinien läpi.
- Senni (8/5): -
- Marika (10/5): Kuus kautta viis. - Ystävällinen palvelu, kodinomainen paikka. Aamiainen erinomainen.
- Thea (8/5): Basic kamers, zeer goed ontbijt en goed kwaliteit prijs verhouding - Het is een simpele B&B. Kamers zijn basic ( vergelijk jeigdherberg). Maar qua prijs niet te verslaan in de Ruka regio. Skibus voor de deur Kamersxzijn basic, niet al te groot, maar prima voor de prijs
- Tiina (9/5): - Aamupala oli hyvä ja monipuolinen. Sijainti lähellä kaikkea Äänieristys oli heikko. Yöllä ei kuulunut meteliä.
- Mairis (10/5): -
- Chiara (10/5): -
- Ari (7/5): Hinta-laatu suhde oli hyvä - Sijainti hyvä kun lähellä rinteitä. Aamiainen oli hyvä.
- Toku (8/5): -
- Ahnaf (8/5): -
- Pertti (6/5): Mainio yöpymispaikka ja hyvä sijainti yhdistetylle työ- ja kuusamoreissulle, hyvä hinta-laatusuhde. - Vuodevaatteet ikäkuluja, jotka olisi syytä vaihtaa ja sohvatekstiilit perusteellisesti tomuttaa.
- Joni (8/5): -
- Katriina (8/5): -
- Ludovic (5/5): -
- Lauri (6/5): Kaikki vaadittava löytyy - Timanttinen henkilökunta(henkilö). Jopa yksi parhaimmista. Majoituksen vaihtaminen onnistui moitteetta ja kysyttäessä vastattiin. Vessat olivat likaiset. Äänet kuuluvat huoneiden läpi helposti. Huoneen TV repsotti seinästä.
- Tero (8/5): -
- Huuhtanen (6/5): -
- Susanna (10/5): -
- valerie (10/5): As good as I expected ! - The welcome
The situation
The calm
The tea ! Nothing

- Hans (6/5): -
- Toril (5/5): Für eine Nacht ganz okay - Die Lage ist super, Nähe zur Stadt und eines Sees. Personal war freundlich. Aufenthaltsraum mit Gemeinschaftsküche und Tisch ist gemütlich. Auch die Ausstattung der Gemeinschaftsräume ist auf seine Art schön, im altehrwürdigen Stil , mit Geweih an der Wand, Bahnhofsuhr und die Türen sind von außen hübsch gestaltet. Das Zimmer wurde für 4 Personen angeboten, es gab aber nur 3 Schlafplätze. Ausstattung ist in die Jahre gekommen und müsste mal erneuert werden.
- Saurav (10/5): -
- Sirpa (8/5): -
- Camila (8/5): - Super Lage, nahe am Skigebiet
Gibt eine Saune wir haben sie aber nicht getestet
Gastgeber hat uns empfangen Die Wände sind etwas hellhörig. Wir hatten ein Zimmer direkt bei den Toiletten was einerseits praktisch ist aber wenn die ganze Nacht andere Gäste das Klo benutzen auch recht schnell nerven kann.
- Sokolova (10/5): - Место расположения, цена, чистота.
- Krzysztof Piotr S. (8/5): Tani nocleg - Niska cena, możliwość zakupienia śniadania, przystanek skibusa Ubogie wyposażenie pokoju
- Irma (8/5): - Ok paikka Vanhahko rakennus
- Marika Raatikainen (8/5): - Hyvä sijainti, eri huonevaihtoehtoja. Aamupala saatavissa. Äänieristys heikko ja aikaisin alkoi kuulua ääniä aamupalahuoneesta/loungesta
- Ulf (9/5): Bra boende till de priset. Uppfyllde mina behov och bekvämt gångavstånd till skidstadion. - Bra frukost, uppfyllde mina behov. Egentligen ingenting.
- Samaneh (10/5): - Amazing Perfect
- Tiia (9/5): Hyvä hintalaatusuhde. - Ystävällinen henkilökunta ja avulias. Siistit huoneet ja yhteistilat. Huoneiden verhot olisi voineet olla pimentävämmät eikä läpikuultavat.
Yhteistiloissa olisi voinut olla valaisemmat valot.
- Mıhlı (9/5): -
- Agata (8/5): -
- Emma (8/5): - Olin positiivisesti yllättynyt, tämä oli edullisin majoitus alueella ja ajattelin laadun olevan kehnompi. Huone ja muut tilat olivat siistejä, kommunikointi henkilökunnan kanssa sujui hyvin ja mutkattomasti, kaikki meni oikein kivasti. Koirasta ei tullut lisämaksua mikä aina bonusta.
Tein varauksen viime tipassa sunnuntai-iltana, pari tuntia ennen kuin menin paikalle. Vastaus tuli miltei heti.
Voin siis suositella paikkaa. Ei varmasti alueen uusin majoituspaikka, mutta ihan hyvä, sujuva, mutkaton paikka.
- Birsto (8/5): -
- Ari-Pekka (7/5): -
- Jorkag (8/5): Very good - The room was just as described and included a washbasin. Although compact, it was thoughtfully furnished, with private shelves and reading lamps that gave everyone their own personal space. The motel features a small kitchen area (a section of countertop with cooking facilities), a shared fridge, a cosy lounge with a TV, and a dining area. There's also a traditional Finnish sauna with a wood-burning stove (for an additional fee). The host was very helpful and friendly. The kitchen lacked a sink, or there was no clear information about where dishes could be washed. The kitchen equipment could also be improved—items like cups, cutlery, and plates were limited.
- Ilkka (7/5): Good -
- Anastasiia (6/5): It is an option if you are really squeezed in your budget - Maybe I cannot expect more for that amount of money. The place looks old. It’s difficult to criticise something specific. Actually, you will find everything you need, but impression is a bit depressing.
- Fabio (7/5): Good -
- Emerson (1/5): Bad - Very dirty Disrespectful staff.
- Adrian (7/5): Good - Amazing people working there ready to help you any time and allways there with good advice. The place has a big parking and enough space. Relaxed location where you can do your thing without beeing bothered. A bit old.
- Jonathan (10/5): Exceptional -
- Chris (9/5): Superb -
- Ahnaf (9/5): Superb -
- Md (8/5): It was nice. - Location and the staff. Window blind!! It doesn’t close properly!
- Sylwia (9/5): A place to come back to! - Good location (ski bus stops just in front), spacious rooms with a TV, very comfortable beds, spacious cozy lounge with a TV and dining hall with darts, sauna(!!), and first of all very helpful and friendly host. I liked having the sink in the room too, very practical. The only thing that wasn’t very practical was no direct access to the water tap in the kitchen lounge.
- Janne (9/5): Superb -
- Reima (10/5): Exceptional -
- Eneli (10/5): Cute stay! - Host Lotta was amazing, very warm and friendly person. I think she was the gem of this place, felt really welcome and saw how carefully she took care of the rooms and space.
One evening there were churros free to take, yummy! There is a common kitchen room to cook food in and a separate dining room, where we met a lovely family also staying there and had fun sharing our Ruka skiing/snowboarding experiences of the day.
The sauna was very nice too, we used it every night during our stay.
The room was very enough for us, and we had no problem fitting our snowboarding clothes and gear there. The room also had a sink, from which we drank tap water and it was fine. The sanitary facilities were tired, but cleaned very well, so it was not much of an issue.
The sound isolation might not be the best, but rhat just means you did not ski/snowboard hard enough :) we slept soundly.
- Samu (7/5): Bang for the buck at Ruka - Great bang for the buck. Sauna was great addition in the evenings. Staff was friendly, flexible and fun.
Bed was good to sleep in. Motel may be a bit noisy, depending on people staying there :)
The coffee maker in the kitcenette was missing during our stay so that made a small minus for me.
Season was just starting, so it was a bit of a hazzle, but in a good way.
- Eva (8/5): Very good - Good for the price! Helpful staff. A bit far from the centre
- Raivo (9/5): A good simple Place - It met my essential needs for sleep, showering, and food preparation. I came here for moral relaxation through hiking, not physical luxury. This place greatly enhanced my travels. While it’s not a five-star hotel, for sleeping, showering, and cooking, it's the best value in the area.
- Andres (9/5): Good place for late night last minute arrival - I arrived quite late, but they were still there to accommodate me. Friendly welcome, even though I woke the host up. Bedsheets are extra, but nowhere on booking app does it show how much. To be fair, quarter of the whole accommodation price seems a bit out of reason, for washing bedsheets, that were already in place and would have been used anyway.
- Annikka (10/5): We will definitely come again! - Geat location, very nice host and Simo was the best!
- Dace (8/5): Very good - Friendly husky. Room equipped with all you need. Small room for 3 people.
- Isabella (10/5): Incredible experience & created beautiful memories! Thank you so much :) -
- Felix (7/5): Good -
- Jm (9/5): Home away from home - If you are sick of cookie cutter business hotels where you have to pay for everything, this homely hotel offers authentic hospitality that you might expect from a holiday to Lapland. Lovely food fired sauna included. Didn't mind not having a bathroom and shower in the room at all as there was a sink. Recommended for good value for money and some character! Not much soundproofing, if you have noisy neighbours
- Samu (8/5): Great sleep over with reasonable price - Bed was great! Room was cool and nice. Sauna was great in the evening. Place was quiet, even though it was rather full. Staff was super friendly and helpful. Parking is just in front of the building. I was in the corner room and the heating system exhaust went up inside my room wall. There was some noise coming from it, but it wasn't super disturbing.
Could be a wee bit cheaper.
- Rawan (10/5): Exceptional -
- Janne (10/5): Definitely I shall be returning, feeling nice Theme in the house and surroundings. - Wonderful location, absolutely clean, Sauna and showers communal lovely romantic place Nothing to complain. All great. Wonderful place to walk around.
- Joel (10/5): Exceptional - Absolutely loved the place. The host was so nice and kind! Will come again!
- Ahnaf141 (9/5): A great place quite close to the slopes of Ruka - The place is really nice. A good place near the slopes. The owner is so friendly and nice, had a very comfortable stay. The wall plug points were not working but luckily one of the ceiling plug points worked.
- Ahnaf141 (9/5): Superb - The place is really nice. A good place near the slopes. The owner is so friendly and nice, had a very comfortable stay. The wall plug points were not working, but luckily one on the ceiling worked, so I was able to charge my phone.
- Alexandra (8/5): Nice traditional place - The place is good overall, the place is ok and have a bus stop in front.
The experience of the fireplace and sauna is good The rooms in the basement are okaish to be honest. The parking place is easy.
The Sauna is heated with wood (very nice experience)
- Kaarel (8/5): Very good -
- Laura (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jim (8/5): Very good -
- Teemu (8/5): Very good -
- Janne (7/5): Good - Loud snowplouging on the parking lot in the middle of the night.
