They have done the feeling of going from home to home. It is very comfortable. I like washing machines and driers. I like practical simple kitchens and other facilities in the room. I will be a regular customer of this brand.

Didn't have breakfast, so no comment. The major restaurant was closed, but the Peltonen had a simple menu and their food was excellent. Well done to who ever is in charge of Food & Beverage there
