Een fijn verblijf op een mooie locatie!
Pros:

Een uitgebreid ontbijtbuffet en de locatie is geweldig.

Cons:

Onze badkamer was wel aan vernieuwing toe, de toplaag van de badkamerdeur liet los wat scherpe randen veroorzaakte. Mijn zoontje heeft zich eraan gesneden.

Cons:

Huone kaukana päärakennuksesta. Epäsiisti pihaalue, rikkaruohoja yms... huone oli siisti, mutta kulunut esim. vesihana suihkussa ei pelannut kunnolla.

Ihan tyytyväinen , onnistunut loma.
Pros:

Aamiainen oli hyvä ja runsas, huone siisti. Sauna oli siisti ja oli mukava kun lämpeni joka ilta.

Cons:

Huone olisi saanut olla viihtyisämpi ja TV ei toiminut kunnolla. Suihkuun tilaan voisi laittaa verhon/ seinän , ettei koko tila olisi aivan märkä.
Saunan kiuas ei lämmennyt tarpeeksi kun heitti löylyä niin jäi aina kivet märäksi ja löylyä tuli huonosti.

Likaista, suihku ei toiminut ei näkymää mistä sovittiin
Pros:

voimme tulla toistekkin
Pros:

hyvä sijainti, hyvä palvelu, hyvä ruoka ja aamiainen

Cons:

kuuma huone, ei ilmastointia, saunan lauteet rytisee kuin olis hajoamispistees, (toki olimme onnellisia kun huoneistossa oli ylipäätään sauna!) huono suihkutella kylpyammees seisoen.

Sijainti Saariselällä on hyvä. Maastoon suoraan ovelta.
Cons:

Aamiainen vanhassa Tunturihotellin päärakennuksessa oli huoltamo-buffetin tasoa. Esillepano osittain suoraan vacuumipak-kauksista.
