A nice friendly clean place to stay in the heart of Helsinki. I would recommend this place to anyone who wishes to stay in Helsinki on a budget. Definitely value for money. Good facilities for self catering and a supermarket located opposite.

The LAN connection should be free of charge and at all the hotel. All the rest is perfect.

No web access for free, no lockers, very near to the central station, nice rooms, the rooms only have 1 key...that meens if someone is sleeping and you want to go in, you have to wakep everyone in the room.

We got a private room with bathroom and kitchen in it . It was pretty cool. The cleanliness was excellent . 15 minutes walking more or less to the center raise it up to 25-30 if u want to get the sea. security was fine. Kinda small communal kitchen and lounge if we consider 6 floors filled with rooms. the sauna and timetable usage is pretty bad, it is like from 9 to 10 for women and 10 to 11 for men :s .

More like a hotel than a hostel and was therefore not very fun and social...

Generally nice; however, we were very disappointed to find our ensuite bathroom still dirty from the previous guests staying in our room.

The room's quite big, but you ca use WiFi only ear the reception and it's really slow and very strange while you are trying to connect.
