Miinusta siitä ettei sähkö/hybridiautoa voi ladata mökinpihassa. Makuuhuoneen ilmanvaihto heikko. Alakerran makuuhuoneen sängyt oli huonot. Uusi siisti keittiö. ##### Verified traveler Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marjo Dec 28, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication Rauhallinen paikka.

Kalustus eri lähteistä kasattua, rikkinäistä, likaista. Ilmanvaihto surkea, ruoanlaiton käryt kaikki parvelle, joka ei seisomakorkuinen missään kohdin. Parvelle vievät portaat vaaralliset, ulko-oven lukko jumissa/ vaikea saada auki. Turvallisuusriski? Kävelymatka Masto-rinteiden hisseille, josta ehdottomasti plussaa. Hinta-laatusuhde pettymys, muuten ok. ##### Verified traveler Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2020 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Antti Jul 21, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Mökki Itä-rukalla Hyvä mökki mukavalla sijainnilla Itä-rukan puolella. Yleisilmeeltään siisti ja nykyaikainen.
