I had a fantastic stay at the hotel. The rooms were extremely spacious and comfortable with double beds, located in a building next to the main hotel building. The service was friendly and helpful. The location was excellent, within walking distance of downtown and main tourist offices, making it a perfect base for exploring Rovaniemi. The dining experience was very good, offering a fairly comprehensive menu, with great views over the river. The facilities were top-notch, including a sauna and pool for relaxation.

I can't complain about the hotel being conveniently located right next to the city center, with nice and clean rooms. The restaurant offered a decent selection for both breakfast and dinner. However, the room not being serviced for two consecutive days was a big letdown.

The rooms were nice and clean, although not very modern. Unfortunately, mine wasn't serviced or cleaned for 2 days straight.

The dining experience was good, with a nice variety of food. Just be aware that they start clearing up before the official closing time, so don't show up last minute!

Despite the room service issue, the hotel offered good facilities. I wish they were more prompt in cleaning the rooms, but I enjoyed the overall stay.

The hotel is conveniently located right at the bus stop and the city center, offering a lovely setting. The rooms were small and the bed not very comfortable, although the breakfast area was spacious. The service was friendly overall but lacked helpfulness at times.

I had a great stay at the hotel. The rooms were big and spacious, offering excellent views of the river and Candle bridge. The service was extremely hospitable, friendly, and helpful. The location was excellent, with easy access to the airport, Santa's village, and downtown. The dining experience was good, although they started removing items before the official closing time. Overall, a comfortable and enjoyable stay.
