The chalet was nicely located on walking distance from Ruka village. The level of equipment was good, I found everything I needed in the chalet. The key box with code was a good way to check in, gave a lot of freedom for traveling when there was no need to provide an exact arrival time. The box was also very handy for storing the keys while out on activities. No risk of accidentally losing the chalet keys. The bed was comfortable and I slept really well. The car could be parked right in front of the chalet, which was very handy when unloading and loading luggage. Free wifi was a plus. The chalet had a cosy feel, and I felt at home.
