    Die Anlage liegt schön und ruhig, ausserhalb von Siedlungen. Leider war aber nicht angegeben, dass das Restaurant geschlossen ist. Das Frühstück war schön präsentiert, reichhaltig und schmackhaft.

    Pasamos sólo una noche de viaje hacia Helsinki, así que no pudimos disfrutar mucho de la estancia. El desayuno está bien, sencillo pero todo estaba bueno.
