If you do not mind sharing rooms with strangers, this hostel in Helsinki is good for you. Luggage room is accessible by all customers, take your own risk. One shower room’s lock is broken and the door cannot be completely closed. A gap between partition is seen but can be covered by the shower curtain. Plenty rooms for showers.

Central and clean, but missing atmosphere / character. Also easy to get to the airport from the accommodation

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.

Hotels are expensive in Helsinki, so if you want to save money, staying at a hostel is a good option. It's located in the city center, so transportation is great. The hotel entrance is a little hard to find, but enter through the door on the left (west) side of the store "kosmos." Shoes are not allowed inside the room, so it's a good idea to bring slippers. The dormitory has curtains and there is an outlet next to the bed.

The best youth hostel I've ever stayed in. Coming here is like coming home. Everyone takes off their shoes at the door to ensure the cleanliness of the environment, and the hotel provides free comfortable slippers. The curtains on the bed are a plus, allowing everyone to have their own private space. The location is convenient, there are more than three bars at the door, and it is within a ten-minute walk to the central station. Opposite is the largest shopping mall in Helsinki. There are no shortcomings in the hotel.

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!!!
