Excellent place to stay
Pros:

We were given/upgraded to the Kelo Igloo, which is spacious and very comfortable.
The log cabin construction and the main building construction are amazing.
The fact that it was cloudy (so we didn't see any Aurora) didn't detract from us thoroughly enjoying our stay, including private sauna and comfortable beds.

Cons:

Perhaps better illumination or markings for the be walking paths between the igloos and the main building.
Also better signage to the site as it was not easy to find Reception building, especially in the dark.

Unforgettable
Pros:

Speechless after witnessing the northern lights. If you are looking for peace and tranquility this is the place. Very friendly & accommodating staff . You would just blend into Mother Nature. Amazing facilities including the sauna.

Wunderschöne Hütte
Pros:

- Sehr schöne Hütte im East Village mit Schaukelstuhl und in der Küche mit den wichtigsten Dingen ausgestattet
- Sehr ruhig
- Heizung, die individuell eingestellt werden kann
- Sauna in der Hütte
- Sehr gutes Internet, Geschwindigkeit und Empfang super
- Sehr freundliche und bemühte Mitarbeiterinnen
- Super gelegen wenn man z.B. auf den Kiilopää wandern will
- Es war sehr schön hier und ich würde wiederkommen, allerdings sollte es einfach eine Option ohne Frühstück zu einem günstigeren Preis geben

Cons:

- Ich hatte ein Hütte im West Village gebucht, bekommen habe ich eine im East Village, ohne dass mir das vorher mitgeteilt worden wäre (Ich war glücklich mit der Hütte, aber es war eben nicht das was ich gebucht habe)
- Ein paar Tage vor Ankunft wurde mir mitgeteilt, dass das Frühstück als Box in der Hütte zugestellt wird und aus einem Sandwich, Apfel, Schokoriegel und Saft bestehen sollte. Den Schokoriegel habe ich nur an 2 von 5 Tagen bekommen und generell wäre die Zustellung wohl vergessen worden hätte ich nicht nachgefragt.
- Es mangelt an Steckdosen. Auf Nachfrage wurde mir gesagt bei den Nachttischen wären welche, aber da hatte ich dann die Wahl zwischen Router oder Nachtlicht ausstecken...

Niet voor herhaling vatbaar!
Pros:

Het uiterlijk van de huisjes en gebouwen

Cons:

De matrasjes waren zeer slecht. Het ontbijt zeer matig. Het diner veel te duur voor wat je krijgt. Kostprijs nog minder dan 10 euro pp maar te betalen 52 euro pp. Geen keuze menu mogelijk.

Excelente estancia
Pros:

A pesar de llegar fuera del horario de recepción (de 9am -17pm), el personal del hotel nos dejó todas las indicaciones preparadas para nuestra llegada. Fue muy fácil llegar a la cabaña y nos encantó la experiencia. Tuvimos la suerte de que nos asignaron una cabaña superior sin ningún coste adicional. Disponiamos de sauna privada en nuestro baño y estaba muy bien equipado. Destacar la tranquilidad de la zona. Muy recomendable!

Cons:

Desayuno sencillo, pero completo.
