So I highly recommend this place, but people need to keep some things in mind when booking it: This isn't a full service traditional hotel. It is more of a 'rent your own apartment' place. So don't expect daily maid service, tons of towels, huge beds, 24 hour concierge, etc. But within its limits, it is a great choice. Positives: Excellent location, walking distance to many trolleys, the central train station, museums, shopping, etc. Doesn't get much better! Can't stress this enough! Room was nice and large, had full kitchenette Quiet (although some hallway noise). Quiet neighborhood. Great water pressure and lots of hot water. Price couldn't be beat for what I got. Negatives: Bed was small (single twin), and I would suggest they invest in new/better linens and pillows. The single pillow I had was not good, under-filled and lumpy. Another person traveling with me found the wifi unusable on the 3rd floor. First floor wifi was fine, though. Could be easily fixed by place. Not good if you have disabilities, there are 2 sets of stairs to climb before the elevator, which is small. Only one towel provided. With these in mind, I would easily stay here again. Most of my time was spent out in the city.
I like how spacious the room was, but the WiFi barely worked for me
Very comfortable apartment, great location! Nice cafe across the street.
apartment hotel with kitchen facilities in the center of Helsinkiwalking distance (10 min.)from railway,bus stations, shopping district, post office, supermarkets, etc., just 3 min. from a taxi stop.
The rooms are huge! They are very clean and nice. Great location, just minutes away from the most atractions and the rates are very accessible.
Only a 10-15 min walk from the Helsinki central rail station, these 'Finnish style hotel/apartments' are were surprisingly comfortable, well appointed, and clean...all for less than 90$ p/n! Room comes stocked with kitchen equip, large storage/bathroom and a big TV with nice windows looking out on the street. Bed was a bit small, but comfortable...I highly recommend!
