8/10 Very good

pleasant experience, good value
hostel experience - but a single solo room. the room itself was top notch and way better than I expected. it was clean, very good looking and the table for working could fit two laptops easily. bed was ok, very clean but a bit too bouncy and soft for my taste. but tastes may vary of course. the public toilet on the corridor had door handle and lock mechanism very clunky and almost broken. was surprised the towel wasn't included in the price and since my check-in was very late, I could not get a towel. so a very important detail was lost in the messages. shame. overall - pleasent experience for a single room single traveller. good value for 65 euro per night.

The lightning was bad for doing make up and some of the pillows were not comfortable. Otherwise perfect!
Eeva, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

No staff service whatsoever. I did not get a code to get into the room or the hotel. Nobody responded to the texts and calls. So I was stranded with two kids with us for the night. Kids got nervous and cried, it was a hectic and terrible night for my family.
Eric, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

They cancelled my reservation at the last moment, but kept my money. Refusing to refund. Staff very unhelpful and very slow. I wanted to say "you get what you pay for", but in this case I paid money and got nothing. So my sincere recco is to stay away from this shady place.

Positiivinen kokemus
Positiivinen kokemus, todella siistiä ja rauhallista. Ohjeet selkeitä ja kattavia. Yövyin 6 naisen huoneessa (3 parvisänkyä). Sain yläsängyn, koska saavuin myöhään illalla ja se oli hiukan hankalaa, kun piti laittaa lakanat ja kiivetä tikkaita. Toisaalta minulla oli pistorasiat, peili, hylly, valo ja verho, joten viihdyin hyvin, kunhan asetuin. Tulen varmasti uudelleen ja kokeilen silloin toisenlaista huonetta.
