- "Location, Staff & Food" - "Everything, location, Staff, service, restaurant" - "We had a wonderful family stay at this resort. The family suite overlooking the lake had all the comforts we needed. The resort offers a multitude of activities to do on site and we didn't need to hire a car. Although located in the middle of nature, the resort is only 10 minutes from the airport, which is very convenient for a short stay. The staff are very friendly and the activities are well organised and supervised. The breakfast buffet is very varied and has something for everyone! The hotel's two restaurants serve delicious, well-presented dishes. We highly recommend it."

Guest Reviews:
- "The staff is excellent, very friendly and helpful. The location is super, and we walked to all downtown bars and events. We loved the sauna. The restaurant is very good." - "Location is great. The breakfast option is amazing. Looking forward to it every morning. Love the private sauna." - "Great atmosphere created by good design and great employees. Mark from the reception made an effort to answer all our questions and find convenient bus connections for us. We really appreciated the conversations with Waldemar, who, in addition to offering us the best local drinks, enthusiastically introduced us to the secrets of the Finnish way of life. We regret that we did not write down the names of other employees who made our stay so pleasant - the waitresses who quickly delivered orders (and the cooks do a great job too!) and the girls cleaning the room (it was impeccably clean). Good location of the hotel allows for walking or cycling along beautiful trails,"
