“In my opinion, the location in the city center, near the University metro station, is its strongest asset. While some may find aspects of the room arrangement and breakfast needing improvement, the hotel's access to Helsinki's attractions and transport hubs presents a practical base for exploring the city.”

The location is convenient. It is close to the train station and many tourist attractions. The staff were friendly and efficient at both reception and in the breakfast area. The bedroom was a good size and the beds were comfortable

Photos present the hotel in a better light than reality. Lack of air conditioning was an issue .
