This property is cheap, convenient and functional. I stayed twice en route between Lapland and southern Finland, and was very satisfied on the first occasion, although the second was marred by finding the perishables of a previous occupant left in the fridge! Apart from this sanitary defect I would observe the following: 1/ the doorcode system is simple and reliable 2/ the profusion of emails and textmessages before and after the trip is a bit annoying, when all you really need is the doorcode on the day. One of these messages does require you to provide proof of identity, which involves you needing to photograph the main page of your passport and take a selfie, if you do not have a Finnish bank account with secure access. I’m really not sure what to do if you don’t have a smartphone or tablet with roaming rights in Finland (hint: check this when you book!) 3/ the restaurants/takeaways and supermarket in the shopping mall opposite are convenient for getting in whatever supplies you need, upon arrival. Access is via a pedestrian subway only. 4/ the only other issue for me was actually finding my way in to the property from the main highway. Since booking.com, via whom I booked, did not provide adequate info on this, I’ll supply it here for the benefit of any future visitors. After leaving the main highway at Kempele E junction (junction 4a) follow signs for ’Zemppi’, the leisure centre. Once you get to Zemppi, drive past its main building, which is on your left, until you reach a dead end in the carpark. The hotel is the orange and white 6-storey building still on your left, even though it does not display a clear sign that it is, indeed, Aparthotel Forenom. Park in any available spot. During ’normal business hours’ the main entry door is self-opening. After hours you probably need your entry code there as well as on the floor where your room is located.…
