The room is really spacious, with all you need. If you arrive early enough you can use the sauna, kitchen is huge. The only thing that could be unpleasant is that you can't access the toilet directly from your room. Anyway the family is super nice and for me was not a problem at all.

Our host was very friendly and she even offered to pick us up at the airport/bus station. :) The room is perfect, the bed is very cozy and big and it has enough space for two. The bathroom is a shared one. The sauna was good too, especially after a long day outside:) The apartment is about 30min by foot away from the city center. Next to the apartment is a river where you can see northern lights if you're very lucky. We enjoyed it very much and can recommend it of course!

The house is beautiful and very comfortable, very conveniently located 5mn by foot to the shore of the nearby lake, where auroras can be observed with an amazing setup, when they show up (and they did!). 10mn by foot there is a small supermarket which provides everything you need for the daily basis, with somewhat reasonable prices compared to what we saw in bigger city centered supermarkets. In the appartement is a small kitchen that has all you need to cook, as well as a dishwasher, coffee machine, etc...the neighborhood is quiet, and very topical for the region with lots and lots of beautiful houses. We spent a few days there, and it was an absolute dream! The owners are very helpful and reachable in case you have a question. We only hope we'll come back <3
