The kitchen is not welcoming, no pans for cooking. I didn't cook anything during my days of staying. But the location is really close to the food market which is convenient to dine out.

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.

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.

Not very clean place. Most stuff was worn down and a bit dirty. I know this was a budget accommodation, but for 50€/night I expect that the vacuum clean the floor and clean the windows. The whole place needed repairs and it clearly seen better days. Avoid if possible.

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.

The address given in the booking and confimation email is almost impossible to find. No buildings have numbers and there are very few street names. The area is deserted on a Sunday evening.
After a long and stressful search I finally found someone to advise me.
The entrance is in a *different street* to that indicated by Google maps.

I did not feel comfortable here with the main issue being lack of cleanliness. The bathrooms and other shared areas including the kitchen did not look or feel clean. There was strong bad smells in the showers and toilets. It appeared to be an older building and the condition of the facilities was generally poor. It is in an unusual area away from main sites but the light rail stop is a fairly short walk (can be difficult with luggage in the snow). The entrance was somewhat difficult to find. As the accomodation is not staffed, there is also no where to leave bags after checking out in the morning which was difficult as I did not fly out until the evening. It is not very soundproof as I could hear others in nearby rooms late at night. I would not return and would advise staying elsewhere.

Room clean but hot. Broken blind meant unable to keep out light. No staff if assistance required. Not enough toilets. Stay OK but place a bit depressing.

I loved the facilities in the hostel but the residents need to be more polite.
3.0 / 10.0
The best thing was the location. It was great to be so high and have a nice wiev over the City. Also it was near the metro. The bad thing was that there were never any staff at place. There were no toiletpaper in the toilet and no soap either. I never saw any possibility to coock food either. So I will give it 7 out of 10 points in general.

Just a room in a block of flats. A bit like a students accommodation. Totally fine and convenient for Helsinki.

Not very luxuorius, but it was nice to have a private space!
4.0 / 10.0
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.

This place is very modest, fits when you just need a short sleep with low budget. Instructions with codes are sent by e-mail, but somehow the codes at front door did not passed several times. Same code for room worked well, though. Low comfort, lousy pillow, but at least quiet room

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...

The hostel itself was actually fairly nice, but there was hair all over the sheets so it clearly hadn't been changed giving it a uncomfortable and grubby feel

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.
