Good for solo traveller. But the room area is not big, maybe inconvenient for someone who have large luggage.

It was amazing, we will return there next time when we are in Helsinki, atmosphere was amazing, better bed than I have at home, on boards there is useful information to know, what is happening in that area in that week, etc. A really great place to stay at and for travellers, metro/bus station near by. Also a place where you can meet great and interesting people.

The location of the hostel is perfect—close to public transportation and the main tourist attractions in Helsinki. It was clean and calm. The bed has a curtain, a mirror, plugs, a lamp, and shelves. The hostel emails all the codes for the building and the hostel for easy check-in. There was no one at the reception when I arrived, but a welcome card was left with my room key. It was unacceptable that a low bed was not reserved for me. It was a nightmare to go to the upper bed.

I stayed in a 6-person female room. The room was spacious and the shower room, kitchen, and common areas were comfortable. I was able to make friends from various countries who were backpacking.

I stayed here for 6 hours (01.15-07.15) to sleep, the place was very messy and dirty. All instructions in foreign languages. After 2 days there was a 100€ cleaning fee. I do not recommend it to anyone!!!

What made us happiest was the great location. It takes 30 minutes by train from the airport to Helsinki Central Station, and it's in the city center, less than a 10-minute walk from Helsinki Central Station. You won't have any trouble going out to eat or shopping! If I had to point out one thing that bothered me, it would be that the room was quite dry, so I think it would be beneficial for future guests if a humidifier was installed.
