Nice stay, good location. I just don't understand bathroom arrangement, there's two sliding glass doors that don't even fully close bathroom - meaning that whatever you do in there - other person can both hear and smell, which is just terrible no matter how comfortable you are with your partner.

Excellent boutique hotel with all the amenities

The Hobo Helsinki was an amazing boutique hotel. It had beautifully appointed, clean, and comfortable rooms with a lovely en suite bathroom, incredible staff, terrific environmental sustainability efforts in house, a truly expansive and delicious breakfast buffet, strong in hotel security access that was also easy to deal with, and the best location - right downtown, simply a five minute walk from the central train station and near to buses, light rail, and metro. I simply cannot recommend it enough.
