Hobo Helsinki......great location and comfortable!

Our family of 4 found Hobo Helsinki to be in a great location near train central station and major shopping area and tourist spots. The hotel is vibrant and has a good young vibe. We enjoyed the bountiful breakfast though we wished it would open up earlier possibly on week days from 8am to 7:30am or sooner. Room relatively clean and comfortable, though our room for 4 had a open bathroom concept for the shower so just be aware. A box of kleenex would be helpful as well. Overall, we would stay here again.

Good points - the hotel is very central, walking distance from the main railway station, public transport, shopping area, central tourist attractions. The hotel room was spacious and very quiet - despite various functions taking place elsewhere in the building. The staff were helpful, and breakfast was good quality and plentiful. Downsides - the room was kind of style over substance. Apart from a rail and a few coat hangers there was nowhere to put clothes. Basically all you could do was leave your suitcase on the floor and open it - not a terribly comfortable way of doing things. The room was also rather warm, though to their credit the reception staff did something about this as soon as we mentioned it.
