- Check-in time was very flexible and completely self-service.
- The car was easy to park right in front of the garage doors.
- The bed was neatly made for two people and ready for immediate use, just like in a hotel.
- There was a private entrance in a detached house, located in a pleasant residential area of single-family homes.
- The apartment offered much more space than a typical hotel room.
- The apartment looked clean and comfortable (though walking around in white socks did make them get slightly dirty).
- The free Wi-Fi worked well (though we did have to ask for the password).
- There were good opportunities for laundry (for an extra fee), a Finnish sauna (for an extra fee), and a pleasant garden with a table, chairs, and a cat.
- The bus stop was only 5–10 minutes away, and connections to the city center (lines 5 and 50) were frequent throughout the day. The travel time to the center was short - just 15–20 minutes - and day tickets on the Nysse app were reasonably priced.
- There weren’t any restaurants or cafés very nearby, but the city center was easily accessible. A kiosk was located close to the bus stop, and a hypermarket was just a 15-minute walk or a 5-minute drive away.
- Communication with the host was easy and quick through the Booking dot com app.
- We believe this is usually a quiet and pleasant place to sleep and stay, but during our visit, one weeknight was particularly restless exception. The host family made loud noise both inside and outside the house until 2-3 a.m. In such cases, earplugs and a good sense of humor are highly recommended.
- During colder periods of the year, the tile floors may feel cold, so wool socks are recommended.
- The fridge was missing one foot, making it quite wobbly. When opening the door, items on it - like a pretty flower vase - were at risk of falling to the floor.
