    Personal opinion: might be better with some more air in the swimming pool but that is easily fixable with the opening of the windows so such option exists.

    Great location, easy to go on hikes on several options considering the transportation method. Spacey room, food was tasty as tried the local dishes, spa was fine in general. Staff is friendly and nice. Very quiet during our stay.

    Only thing I didnt like was that there was no fireplace in the apartment although the pictures of the apartment we reserved showed that there is a fireplace (also on the list of stuff in the apartment showed that there is fireplace)..

    The location is very nice in the woods if you like hiking its ideal. Breakfast was superb and the food in the restaurant is also great. Staff is polite, rooms were very clean and the hotel is in great shape.

    The soa center is not the best, but is good enough. The pool is very small, but great for children.

    It was clean, warm and peaceful, great for a rest. The best thing out of everything was the staff. The last day we were alone in the hotel and they treated us like royalties!! - bringing food to the room, preparing food only for us, etc. We were just very impressed with the staff! They were great!

    I felt that the restaurant is a bit expensive and I would have enjoyed if there was English breakfast in the breakfast card.

    Exceptionally clean and tidy! Very quiet place and great facilities! Delicious food in the restaurant!

    Great location. The hotel is located 10 mins outside of the city center (car ride). It’s clean, comfortable and the restaurant is great if you don’t want to drive. The wellness center is small but it has all you need and it’s very clean. The staff is friendly and helpful. There’s so much to see around the town. You can ask the receptionist for recommendations.

    The staff is really friendly. The location is second to none, close to all the good ecopaths in the area. The food is good and the rooms are clean. They have also built a house for a stray dog :) I highly recommend it.

    The breakfast can be a bit more tasty and with more variety. Pool size.

    Very helpful staff! They attended to on demand changes in our stay in no time. Food was very nice (a bit pricey:) ). The SPA is nice - especially the massages done by Siika. Pool is children friendly.

    Probably some flexibility on the menu items would be good - we asked for a few changes but they were all declined, but nothing major

    As usual, everything was great. Nice big rooms, nice showers, amazing food. The restaurant is really great, regardless of breakfast, lunch or dinner. Location is amazing as it's adjacent to so many great hikes.

    Our room was above the restaurant which was just a bit noisy, but actually that was not even a problem. There were really no problems. Recommended.

    Well made food, pleasant staff and great location. We haven't tried the spa facilities. It is well suited for relaxing near the forest, mountains and lakes. Food was nothing extraordinary, but it was tasty and well made.

    We have one tiny recommendation, to pay attention to the windows in the rooms, because it was winding through the window.

    We are very satisfied with the overall experience. The staff was at an excellent level, also the food was extremely tasty. The location is top notch. Definitely will be there for a second time.
