Top Rovaniemi Hotel Reviews

Hotel Aakenus

Hotel Aakenus

8/10 Good
"Förmånligt boende 400 m från centrum, 250 m från köpcentrum. Bra med parkering, bra bastu och skön säng. Det negativa var badrummet där duschen inte hade något skydd så vattnet flöt runt hela utrymmet och man måste lägga handduken på golvet för att vistas "torrskodd" där. Frukosten i normal/enklare format."
