The property is beautiful, and the host was very kind and helpful. We are Americans and were unsure how the sauna worked, and the host got us straightened out and refused a large tip. The lake was perfect for a quick swim in the morning. We had everything we needed, and the location is close to plenty of hiking and disc golf.

Arctic paradise, northern lights on your doorstep!

This place and the surrounding area was the highlight of our trip to Europe! The accommodation was absolutely spectacular, roomy and cozy at the same time, and the family that runs the place was very friendly. The Arctic cold doesn't even seem like a big deal with the in-cabin sauna at the end of the day. I can't reccomend this place enough! One morning we even awoke to the aurora borealis alert on my phone, went outside and saw the northern lights right from the cabin's doorstep. We added another night while we were here because we liked it so much and I wish we could have stayed much longer!

The accommodation has a great location (close to the national park Pyhä), clean and check in and out was seamless. The only downside was that they were „hidden costs. You have to be aware that you have to pay ex. a flat fee for bedding/ towels. It wasn’t much, (10€ pP) but would have been nice to know beforehand. Regardless, I would recommend staying there

I stayed at this hotel from February 4th to February 7th and had a very disappointing experience. From the first day, there was no hot water available in the room. I reported the issue to the front desk and was asked to wait about one hour, but even after 1 hour and 30 minutes, the problem was not resolved and I was unable to take a shower, which was extremely frustrating after more than 20 hours of travel. The same issue continued the following day. I then opened a support request through the booking platform, hoping for a solution, but nothing was resolved at that time. Only on my last night, February 6th, did the hotel inform me by email that the issue had been fixed, and I was finally able to take a hot shower. However, on the morning of February 7th, before check-out, the water was cold again. During most of the stay, I had to heat water using a kettle to bathe, which is unacceptable. Additionally, the room heating was insufficient for the low outside temperatures. It was also not clearly stated during booking that bed linens and towels are charged separately. In summary, although the hotel is inexpensive, it does not offer good value for money due to the level of discomfort experienced. I would not stay here again or recommend it.

Perustason mökki

Perustason mökki, joka odottelee laajamittaista pintaremonttia. Alkuperäisessä kunnossa olevat pinnat. "Täyskeittiö" oli aika vaatimaton ja erityisen hankala käyttää. Mikro, kahvinkeitin ja vedenkeitin käyttävät samaa pistorasiaa ja töpselin vaihto tuli tutuksi. Näiden laitteiden sijoittaminen pöytätasolle portaiden alle oli tosi hankala käytön kannalta. Täysketiiöön odotin kuuluvan sähköuuni, mutta ei sitä ollut. Sauna ja kylppäri oli tilavat, mutta esim. sauna paneelit oli täynnä tummia läikkiä, liekö homeläikkiä. Majoittuminen oli parvella, jonne kipuaminen pystytikkaita ei huonojalkaiselta onnistu. Alhaalla on levitettävä vudesohva, jos haluaa joka päivä sijata petin, niin se varmaan on ok. Periaatteessa siellä oli kaikki mitä tarvii, mutta aika nuhjuinen kuva jäi.

Paikka oli yhdelle pihamaalle rakennettu keskittymä. Mökki oli siis kurkihirrestä kahtia jaettu puolikas. Varsinainen nukkumatila ylhäällä parvessa, joka oli saunan yläpuolella ja luonnollisesti kuumui kovin. Sinne johti erittäin jyrkät portaat. Oleskelutilan sohva oli luonnollinen nukkumapaikka, tosin hieman epämukava. Keittomahdollisuus vaatimaton. Kuuluu sarjaan mökit. Kulunut, hieman suttuinen ja epäkäytännöllinen, mutta kahdelle riittävä ja kodikas. Hintaansa nähden linjassa. Ystävällinen palvelu respassa josta tuli vai avaimen nouto ja palautus. Jokainen lisäpalvelu oli hinnoiteltu takkapuista lähtien. Sijainti hyvä!

Patikointiloman majoituspaikka

Majoituimme 4 yötä Kuukiurussa. Päivät patikoimme Pyhä-Luostolla, jonne Kuukiurusta oli kohtuullinen ajomatka. Huone oli siisti ja varusteluun kuului oma vessa ja kylppäri, sekä jääkaappi, mikro ja kahvin-/vedenkeitin, jotka riittivät hyvin omien eväiden kanssa retekilevälle. Sen kummempa palveluita emme kaivanneet, huone oli siisti ja rauhallinen ja hintalaatusuhde ok.
