Apartment was clean with great heating, easy instructions to get in and out
It was a bit further from city centre than expected, only 15 minute walk but felt longer due to cold in the snow

Our studio apartment in Rovaniemi was perfectly for an overnight stay. It was small but well organised, and ideally located on the edge of the city centre. Very clean and modern. WiFi excellent. Good shower. Lift.
No parking, but we parked for free on the street 100m away.
The only things we felt would be useful to supply for guests in ther kitchen were filter papers for the coffee machine (it blocks up really easily without one), and a tea towel for drying dishes.

Excellent location, close to the train station and close to the center of Rovaniemi. Practical and comfortable apartment with supermarkets and convenience stores in front. Excellent bed and great shower. Niina, the owner, helped us with the taxi and indicated a luggage storage for us to leave our bags until check-in. Thank you for our first stay.

It’s cozy, small but functional, and in a very good position!
It was a little bit too warm inside (but probably there was a way to lower the heater that we didn’t know)

The appartement has everything what is needed, including a washing machine.
It is not far from the train station.
Complicated to get there and find the place where to pick up the key.
The space is tiny, no space for luggage.

We loved the location, cleanliness and decoration of the house. It was also realy warm.
The apartment smelled of cigarette smoke when we arrived. We couldn't get rid of this smell.

it’s a new flat.
You need to pick up your key from a restaurant which is 8 minute walk and 16 minutes for return in total. During the summer, it will be fine. However, you would not like to walk this far with big luggages in the winter when the weather is freezing and snowing.
Plus, the flat is subdivided into two flats, so please expect it is small and everything is tiny. With this price, u can find a proper size flat in the city centre.
8.0
good location with several convenience stores around
entrance to the apartment was a little hard to find and key collection is a 10minute walk away.
5.0
The bed was comfortable and the pillows were good. The bathroom was decent. I'm glad there was an elevator. The room had all the necessary essentials.
1. A check-in. Since they don't have an actual reception, you have to go to a restaurant to collect keys.
2. No luggage storage, except at the same restaurant in a very public location where anyone can steal your bags. You have to accommodate their work hours too. The worst part was having to walk with a large suitcase for almost 10 minutes in snow. To draw you a picture of that misery, I'd much rather clean up dog vomit from a carpet while wearing high heels than having to roll the luggage in snow for 10 mins.
3. The disclaimer said that they can provide taxi service. I was just given a business card of a taxi company and was told to call them. Luckily, there was a hotel nearby where I got cabs from until the receptionist told me about an app. FYI, there's no Uber in Rovaniemi.
4. High temperature in the room. The room was unbearably hot( 83-85F) and I had no way of adjusting the heat. Slept with the window wide open, otherwise it was impossible to stay there.

Clear instructions on how to collect key and how to enter property. Property was clean, quiet, warm and very comfortable, equipped with everything we needed and everything was within walking distance. Supermarket was over the road, and also a corner shop was opposite the apartment block. Would definitely stay there again and I will recommend to others. We really enjoyed our stay here
The apartment block was set back off the street so wasn’t sure if it was the correct block- local person also wasn’t sure if it was the correct apartment block but when I tried the key in the main door at the back it opened!

The basic cleanliness was satisfactory. The apartment was newly renovated with kitchen facilities and a washing machine.
The worst part of staying here was to collect the key to the apartment i.e. I needed to walk with my heavy luggage for another extra 750m to a Chinese restaurant, and then back again to the actual apartment. It was such a tiring experience for a first time visitor to Rovaniemi. The host should think of an on-site key collection arrangement to assist the guests.
7.0
The apartment was really nice, but it was a little bit too warm inside. We had to pick the keys up from a nearby restaurant, which was a little unexpected, but went smootly
