Cheap, good location, all well...but. Little things like missing door handle on a shared toilet, drapes not working / or hanging off the hook, cooling by self made blocks on the windows (toilet paper). Difficult entry to the room, as there were two cabinets right by the door. Little lay-out design, some basic carpentery skills person to fix things up would be good.

The address given in the booking and confimation email is almost impossible to find. No buildings have numbers and there are very few street names. The area is deserted on a Sunday evening. After a long and stressful search I finally found someone to advise me. The entrance is in a *different street* to that indicated by Google maps.

The property is located very near to Merihaka Bus Stop in the Kallio district. Bus 16 and 55 goes directly from the Helsinki Central Station. The property entrance was bit difficult to find as it is on 11th floor of an office tower. And there were so many doors and entrances with Keycode locks that we got confused. Moreover, the phone was not reachable. So we struggled a bit but finally could make out by ourselves only. One needs to climb the stairs to 1st floor and then get into a building (tower) by the name of Meritorni. The room is very small with a refrigerator, kettle 2 cups and 2 plates and some cutleries. The room looks a bit old but was clean and well organized. The view from the room is pretty amazing. You can see the whole of Helsinki from different sides of the hostel. The toilets are shared but very clean and tidy. Wifi was good. There is a K Supermarket, Pharmacy and a restaurant (Merihaka Ravintola) in vicinity for quick food. The best part we liked was the early checkin possibility from the staffs. The room was ready to be checked in at 7 am for us. That was very kind of them.

窓が簡単に開けられる作りになっていない為、室内が非常に暑い。 しかも窓が壊れている。 景色を楽しみたいが窓ガラスが汚れていて、景色を楽しむ事が出来ない。 清掃スタッフは頻繁に清掃に来ているので衛生面には安心感がある。 一階のレストランが既に経営していないのか、いつも開いていない。 食事面で頼りにしていた分、残念。

God udsigt og beliggenhed

Meget upersonligt, nedslidt og med mange små irriterende mangler . Intet spejl på værelset, lyset virkede ikke på toilet, døren til toilet kunne ikke låses, ingen affaldsspand i baderum, ingen skraber til vand i baderum. Stedet er ikke socialt da der ikke er et reelt opholdsrum, eller spiserum. Værelset ok, value for money ? Måske...

Was a lovely hostel, close to the city centre. Room was nice and the communication from the staff was great (i made a noise complaint and they sorted it). The shower and toilet facilities were good, but the urinals were blocked off and then a resident broke the toilet seat which remained broken until the next day. But other than that it was clean and perfect for what i needed and had a great kitchen to use.

Majoituin työasioissa yhden yön. Hostellin sijainti oli hyvä ja tilat siistit. Viereisessä huoneessa kuitenkin metelöitiin aamuyöhön asti. Missään ei oltu ilmoitettu yhteystietoja, joihin ottaa yhteyttä häiriötilanteissa. En voi suositella majoituspaikkaa työmatkustajille.

5月に宿泊しました。ベッドは小さいですが、日本人なら大丈夫かなと。コンセントはCタイプのみ。シャワーの水圧やお湯もしっかり出ました。トイレもシャワー室も使う人によって変わるかもしれませんが、私が宿泊した時は問題ありませんでした。バスタオルがついていました。歩いて10分ほどの範囲にスーパーが何軒か、地下鉄、バス停があります。 違う部屋の人のドアの開け閉めの音は気になりますが、それ以外はさほど気になりません。プライバシーが守れてこの値段は安いかなと思います。マンションの周りも静かです。
