2-Star Hotels in Uusimaa, Finland

This is a place I am grateful to for allowing me to spend my last night in Helsinki before heading back to Seoul, after parting ways with my local friend in Isalmi, Finland. There was a brief, nerve-wracking incident where I left my key in the room, but I resolved it with the help of my local friend. (Please make sure to take your key with you wherever you go.) I plan to visit Helsinki again this year, so I hope to see this place again. Thank you for the kind check-in.

The hostel is perfect for travelers in search of a fair accommodation at the heart of helsinki city centre. It’s quite strange though that receptionists and hostel staff are almost never present and the only appearances were the one of the cleaning maid. The result is that guests don’t really communicate or interact no matter the huge living room and sofas and the fact that they all have to share the kitchen amenities. What happens is that the level of tidiness and accountability for the usage of mugs, plates, cutlery depends on your luck and the guests who check in each and every day. By the last day we had partygoers stopping only for a night out and cans of pepsi and a bottle of vodka were left on the common table (not sure if it was a shy invite to indulge) while the sink and the dishwasher were crammed with badly rinsed stuff. It’s a pity cause the common showers, the toilets and the rooms were fairly clean, we simply expected the typical hostel experience where you manage to socialize a bit more thanks to the staff.

Nice hostel with shared kitchen and bathroom facilities. Staff were friendly and helpful. Twin room was spacious, although beds were narrow and walls thin, earplugs are a must! Location was good, about 20 minutes walk to Senate Square or 1 minute to the number 4 or 5 tram. Free sauna in the mornings too!

The room was clean and comfortable, there were key card lockers for each bunk so that made my belongings feel secure! The lobby was also huge with lots of spaces to lounge. Showers had hairdryers and sufficient cubicles and hooks for towels and clothes. Would recommend!

The location is walkable to the city center. The facilities are great, and the room is comfortable. Security is well-maintained, and late-night check-in was not an issue.

Peaceful place, no noise from the traffic and otherwise also very quiet. Room had tv, refrigerator and a comfy chair beside the bed. What can I say? For this price I say this a steal. Also breakfast was very good. I fully recommend this at least for solo travelleres like I.

Really located in nice spot,bar.restaurant.shop.park just nearby.the staff was nice and helpful.but it’s an old building which no escalator. A sink in room is really helpful.Don’t bring big suitcases !

It was easy to spend because there was a feeling of cleanliness at the hotel on Suomenlinna Island and the rules of the hotel itself were firm. However, I don't know if I don't have to lend a towel or pay for it, so it's a caution there.

Had a little trouble trying to figure out how to get in the hotel but it was great

Near old town by walk. Budget price with breakfast. Coffee and tea in your room. Nature environment.
