Do NOT come to this house

I wasn't able to contact the host during my stay and somehow neither can I do it now. The host might reply to my comment, like she did to another person, saying that I'm being "vengeful" lol. You'll see that is not the case, I didn't even get to meet the host personally. Read the other comments very well and you'll find them odd, I wish I had done it and realized they were probably all fake. When I booked the stay, there were "comments" from people from my home country and now they are gone, I wonder why. The majority of the house does not correspond to the pictures. When I arrived, the house smelled terribly because the host left wet bed sheets inside the house to dry. She left garbage in the kitchen, the utensils were dirty and there were tons of opened old food and alchohol in the drawers. I cannot stress enough about how disgusting my room and the sauna were, and how she didn't even try to hide it. It is completely shameful to do this to another person. She didn't even put sheets in my bed, everything had yellow stains and the mattress had literally dry blood in it. There were also drawings of literal political criminals hanging in the bathroom, and it's completely out of touch with reality to have this when you know people from other cultures and countries are coming to stay in your house. She even left us a huge list of do's and dont's, hypocrisy at its best... As a person with respiratory problems, including sinusitis and allergies, do not come to this house for the sake of your health. The pictures, especially the sauna, will speak for themselves and you'll see how everything is true. Unfortunatly, it really was my worst stay through Booking ever. I'm rating it a 1 because I can't give it less.

Comfortable, cosy, functional home which we would recommend

We had a wonderful 5 night stay. Beautiful building with an amazing garden, absolutely perfect for the children to play in and enjoy the snow in safety. We really appreciated all the extras included like sledges, snow toys and, whilst we didn’t use them, the cross country skis, ice fishing equipment and bikes. There was a pretty lit Christmas tree in the lounge on our arrival, which was a lovely surprise, and fantastic fire / stove as well. Communication with the owner was faultless with prompt replies both prior to and during our stay. Detailed instructions were appreciated although perhaps these could be checked for translation to provide more clarity. We really enjoyed having access to the sauna and this was easy to use. The home was cosy when we worked out the heating controls! We all found our beds very comfortable. We used taxis to get around but there is a driveway if you have a car. (Menevä were excellent and taxi to SCV was around €53). We would absolutely recommend this property, very well equipped, comfortable, excellent value and worked well for our family stay.

- property decor, fixtures and fittings are ‘tired’, whilst functional, the fittings were not modern - the kitchen is well equipped, but could do with updated glassware, chopping boards and additional cutlery to replace damaged, chipped items. Extra set of glasses would make a big difference. - would have been appreciated if the underfloor heating in the porch had worked as due to the extreme external temperatures, there was ice on the inside of the windows in the porch. No big deal though! - sadly due to weather conditions out of owners control, the igloo was found collapsed on our arrival and owners were not able to repair it during our stay due to extreme low temperatures.

Heerlijk vrij huis, met alles erin wat je nodig hebt!

De ligging was fantastisch. Iets verder van centrum maar met de bus prima te doen. En voor de Noorderlichtliefhebbers juist weer fantastisch.

Eigenlijk was alles goed. Misschien niet helemaal gestyled, zoals ik het zelf zou doen maar dat is een keuze.

Comoditat i bona ubicació!

És una casa amplia, còmode, neta, amb un Jardí gran... ben equipada, 2 habitacions còmodes. Cuina molt pràctica, ben equipada, amb menjar bàsic (cafè, sal...), sabó per netejar els plats, la roba... La sauna va ser genial, una gran experiència! El Jardí també molt xulo però l'iglú NO hi és (jo havia llegit algum comentari en aquest sentit quan la vam llogar). Hi ha trineus i altre material d'exterior que vam aprofitar. La veritat és que molt bé! Molt bones instruccions i indicacions per part de l'amfitrió I molt bona ubicació, al costat d'un llac!

Per dir alguna cosa, que la 3a habitació era freda, pero no la vam haver de fer servir perquè n'hi havia 2 més, amb un llit de matrimoni i dos individuals junts.

Expectacular

Todo. El iglú, trineos, skis, sauna, patio, ubicación… la casa muy acogedora. Desayunas, comes y cenas viendo la nieve…. Teníamos todo lo que se puede necesitar. Nos hemos sentido como en casa. El anfitrión siempre atento y respondiendo nuestras dudas. 100% recomendado

Sehr spartanisch, wir würden es nicht wieder buchen.

Die Sauna

Für 6 Personen war das eine Bett etwas klein und es gab ein Bad ohne Fenster mit Badewanne und Toilette ohne Dusche und ein extrem kleines Klo. Dort war es sehr schmuddelig, schimmelig und nicht aufgeräumt. Man hat nicht ein einziges Fenster mal zum Lüften aufbekommen. Sehr unangenehm wenn man nachts frische Luft braucht oder nach dem Kochen

Das haus war nicht wie auf Bildern und der Schimmel gesundheits schädlich !!

Die Unterkunft war nicht wie geschrieben am Fluss! Bäder und Sauna total verschimmelt! Mehr sate Decken kaufen um dort zu schlafen ! Wollte neue Unterkunft buchen aber diese war schon teuer! Bäder mit Chlor geputzt !!! Eigentlich sollte man mein Geld zurück überweisen! Auf Sofa schmutzige Decke für Pferde und Kissen! Es tut mir leid aber die Bilder waren mit Filtern bearbeitet und das sollte nicht sein! Braucht Anstrich!!!!
