Very good for a couple of nights.

The hostel is near two major lines, you can go to the center of the city in15 minutes and the airport in 20 min. There is a mini market downstairs that’s open 24/7. Staff was nice and very diverse which made it a bit of a challenge communicating in English, French and even Swedish. Other great idea was to place monitors so you can check screens throughout the hostel with schedules for transportation. Breakfast was complementary for us but for 8€ you can skip that and buy something much better elsewhere. What made our stay not so great, was the lack of consideration of other guests. By not cleaning after themselves when using the common kitchen and behave in a decent manner. Or speaking way to loud after midnight in the common areas.

Nice stay

Hostel itself is a bit out of center so if you are tired during the day,you must travel approx.30 mins by tram back to hostel.Staff is very kind and helpful, i didn't stay in dorm rooms but double room with shared bedroom was good.you can use kitchen freely for cooking.toilets are probably smallest toilets i have seen,i hit my everywhere in toilets and showers.in double rooms floor,showers has transparent glasses,so for private showers you should go to other part of hostel.there is a book swap chance in hostel,so bring your book which you have finished to get a new one.activities are cool,there are game nights etc for socializing.but 8 euro breakfast seemed a bit expensive to me,if you want there is also supermarket downstairs,it works 24 hours.

Good for my one-night stop

A busy dormitory with lots of people, maybe not the cleanest nor most peaceful, but pretty much as good as could be expected from such. Served my need for one-night stop perfectly, and as an extra pleasure, there were pretty good shower and kitchen amenities, nice vintage-esque arcade and a bar, and happened to meet some friendly people there.

Had a great stay!

Loved this hostel! It’s easy to get there from the airport and it’s within walking distance to where Tuska festival is being held (the purpose of my trip). There a 24/7 supermarket right next to the hostel as well. Room and bathroom were clean. Staff is really friendly. Had some trouble with the lock on my door and they were very helpful and quick to fix it. The pillow on the bed could’ve been better but everything else was great! I would definitely stay here again!

Not bad if you’re in a pinch, the neighborhood is pretty far from anything you might need, and the refrigerators didn’t work.

Nice customer service, it was definitely cheap accommodation. I did not sleep well, the beds are "flimsy", not sturdy enough and they will shake when you get up and down from the upper bunk. It was quote hot in the room, no proper sound proof from outside. I just didn't sleep great hear but it was very cheap so not sure if I should expect more.

Good & cheap option.

The shared female room, where I was staying it was clean, simply & comfortable. The hostel is just a few steps away from the bus & tram station, which you can use for the Center. Very important is that the public bus for the airport runs from there too. The only thing, that I found “bad” were the showers. There was not a door but only a bath curtain, which make you feel uncomfortable while moving.

Good budget option for staying in Helsinki

I recently stayed at the hostel and I have some mixed feelings about my experience. On the positive side, the hostel’s location is ideal for exploring the city, conveniently situated near major attractions and public transportation options are excellent ( direct bus to the airport). Additionally, the staff was friendly and helpful, check-in process was smooth. However, there were some downsides to my stay. The cleanliness of the hostel did not meet my expectations. Although the room decor was simple, which I didn’t mind, there was a thick layer of dust on the floor and on the locker cabinet giving the impression the room had not been cleaned properly for some time. A broken locks on a few of the bathroom stall doors were a significant concern for privacy. Overall, the hostel has great potential, thanks to its excellent location and wonderful staff. I would suggest improvements to be made in terms of cleanliness and maintenance, adding some curtains to bunkbeds for privacy. I would consider staying here again as it is good value for your money and location is very convenient.
