The hotel's location in the center of Helsinki provides easy access to various attractions, shops, and dining options. While the rooms lacked unique design features, the addition of a sauna was a nice touch. The service was attentive despite a minor mishap with packing food early. Dining options were satisfactory, and the facilities met expectations.

The hotel has rooms that are really superior, very clean, and well-equipped, but lack imagination in design and feel like a dorm room in a youth hostel. Unfortunately, the rooms face a narrow courtyard with loud air conditioning machines, limiting airing options. The service is super efficient and friendly, going above and beyond to assist guests. The location is very convenient, close to the train station and within walking distance to various attractions. The dining experience offers a good basic selection but can get crowded. Overall, a comfortable stay with a few drawbacks.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were spacious, clean, and surprisingly quiet despite not being noise-oriented. The staff was friendly and the breakfast selection was excellent.

The hotel offers spacious rooms with a huge mirror and a comfy bed, though some dust on the floor and slightly dated furnishing were noticeable. The service was very helpful and friendly, with a good breakfast provided. The location is excellent, close to the train station, university, and shopping areas. The dining experience, while offering a basic selection, lacked vegan-friendly options and had early morning closure times during the week. Overall, a comfortable stay with minor areas for improvement.

For my summer vacation in July, the hotel is a great pick with windows to the inner yard from the top floor in the sauna section. The staff is very helpful and friendly, but there were some issues with the English channels and group service. However, it's a spot I'd recommend for a brief stay in Helsinki, especially if you love being in the lively city center both day and night.

The hotel is conveniently located, with easy access to the University of Helsinki and downtown area. The rooms, although spacious, lack warmth and may need refurbishment.
