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.

Liked: Cleanliness
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.

Decent stay.

Clean comfortable room. Shower, although shared, was excellent. Quiet. Decent bed. Downside, too many broken things. Blinds, handles on toilet doors, sinks. I opened what I thought was a wardrobe, it was a cupboard with a fridge, kettle and microwave. I wish that I had known that they were there, may have missed it somewhere.

The kitchen was in horrible condition ith food on the counter for the whole 2 days I was there. The showers were clean but the only available "bodywash" was hand soap and there were no shower curtain. The toilets felt old and not very fresh. The rooms were clean and I appreciated the refrigerator even tho hiding it in a closet would be considered a fire hazard in my home country. In all it was an okay hostel if your on the kind of trip were you mostly need the hostel for sleep and showers.

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.

If the room had only been cleaner...

I would love to say that this was a perfect little hostel in a great location. I would love to say it, because the staff / cleaners that I met were absolutely awesome; very friendly, flexible, generous etc. Especially as I was little late with my check-out, they waited for me patiently and said that there is no rush at all :) However, the milieu itself is outside rough and spooky - inside it is an old and gloomy office building. The most unfortunate thing was the dirt all over the place in the room; it was very dusty, the corners were filled with grey dust and both beds were covered with black hair. Thus, although I stayed alone I had to open up both beds in order to see which one would be better/cleaner for sleeping. The floor was also dirty, and it felt awekward to walk on it with socks only. That was nasty. The walls are very thin, too, so I could hear someone snoor... Some positive things: I was happily surprised of the coffee maker, microwave and (clean!) tableware in the room, which made it possible to have a morning coffee and porridge etc. in the room. Also, the common area toilet was clean and tidy enough, which was nice, and the common areas + corridors had been made as comfortable as possible. So yes, some effort had been done! Also the location, sure, it not too shabby...

Overall was ok stay, doesn’t feel like a hostel as there’s no social life or a place to do anything in the hostel at all, beds were small, no activities organized by the hostel management in order to make it feels like a hostel.
