Es war einfach toll! Die Villa Virpi hat uns so gut gefallen, wir wären sofort eingezogen! Unser Gastgeber hat uns total herzlich und freundlich empfangen und wir haben uns sofort wohl gefühlt. Das kleine Häuschen ist perfekt ausgestattet, es gebe Platz für vier Personen, es gibt eine top ausgestattete Küche, ein Bad und ist wunderschön mit Christbaum und Weihnachtsschmuck geschmückt. Es gibt eine Kaffeemaschine, Fernseher und alles, was man sonst noch braucht. was soll ich sagen, einfach eine zehn von zehn :-)
Außerdem gibt es genug Parkplätze vor der Tür und man ist fußläufig innerhalb weniger Gehminuten in Rovaniemi. Der Gastgeber Virpi bietet außerdem viele Touren an und fährt seine Gäste dort persönlich hin. Von mir eine Herzensempfehlung!

We were given a free upgrade to the cabin at the back of the main house. It was gorgeous, cosy & warm. We could stay as long as we wanted after checkout which was great. Our host couldn't have been nicer or friendlier. I'd definitely recommend staying here. Gorgeous little spot

The location was very approachable to airport, city centre. At the same time, we got the feeling of staying in a remote area. There is a supermarket nearby.
We really enjoyed the place. It was warm although there was huge snow all around.
Everything was great.

The place is such a dream. It's much more than " a stay", it's an experience!!! Much better than just been in a hotel room.
Cozy place, heated, and comfy.
The place is extremely clean, with all home facilities that anyone can need and they have sleds to the kids.

Very nice cottage in the backyard of the owners house. Comfortable & clean, well equipped kitchen, with your own porch. Kids liked the christmas tree and presents in the center of the house.

Wonderful stay with very close proximity to the city centre and main attractions. Highly recommended!
We stayed in the private villa, which was well heated and had good amenities for a week long stay. The villa is close to bus stop, but if you have car, it is only 8min drive from larger supermarkets (Prisma) and close to many of the attractions (Santa's village, ski areas, etc).
We even saw northern lights in the sky above on some of the nights !

We were very welcomed by the owner. We were chatting in the living room after check-in and he also offered us a sausage as a small snack made on the fireplace :-) Our room was in the first floor, was big enough with a small kitchen corner and a fridge. We were sharing a bathroom with other roommates which could be cleaner in our opinion.

Kitchen was well equipped
DON'T STAY HERE!!! IT'S SO DIRTY!! YOU CAN'T CANCEL!!!
My girlfriend hurt her knee and we couln't rent a car, so we asked to cancel the stay, as walking 30min through snow and ice would be cruel! When we asked if we could cancel and get a refund the host responded very rudly with 'you probably have travel insurance'. They weren't trying to find a good solution for all parties. I messaged them that we're still going to stay there. Whenever we arrived the host was rather suprised that we'd stay there.
In our room on the throw blanket there were stains and hair. The wardrobe was full of dust, hair and dirty (the mirror wasn't cleaned either). There are a microwave, coffe cooker, electric kettle (there was still water inside: from prior guests??) and fridge (very dirty and also very loud in the night). The wall behind the bed was dirty as well. The door to our room was very hard to open/shut (we had to use our full body weight to get it open). From the inside, the door could be locked by a door chain, which could be opened from the outside as well. For locking the room from the outside there was a little padlock provided, which didn't seem safe at all. Luckily the other guests seemed nice, if there would have been different ones we wouldn't have felt safe at all. The host wears long underwear in the house, which in our oppinion isn't appropriate (especially because the other guests had a daughter!). The day we arrived and the day after there was a trash bag lying around in the bathroom. The sink in the bathroom had cracks and the floor, wall and cupboard were very dirty. The shower was rusty and didn't look inviting either. The villa had a weird smell to it.
Even hostels are cleaner than this accomodation. The host speaks only little english. There are no Covid-19 precautions or handsanitizer. The room was very overpriced for the location and what you get (cleanliness is something the host doesn't know!!).

- friendly host
- free use of the kitchen
- the host “upgrade” us in the bigger room
- cleanliness should be improved, for e.g. for room facilities (toaster, kettle, mugs, etc.)
- small bathroom and no toiletries (e.g. shampoo & shower gel)
