Superbly convenient, subpar quality, trade-off?
First of all, the best thing about this hotel is its location. The proximity to Helsinki-Vantaa is amazing, and the frequent shuttle bus (a full city-size bus) between the airport and hotel made a quick overnight stay very easy. The hotel breakfast was also free and quite tasty! The people working at the hotel were very helpful and friendly.
Unfortunately, this was needed soon after we arrived they were because the first room we were assigned had a door chain bracket that was literally torn out from the door. We were placed in the room next door very quickly, however. In general, the rooms were not well kept-up. Many of the surfaces were damaged or scuffed, the furniture was very spartan, and the power switch to one of the bed lamps did not function. The third bed was a cot which had the approximate texture of pudding. The showerhead also required careful water adjustment so as not to escape from its holder and squirt everywhere around the bathroom. It became actually a bit amusing to find the next thing that was a bit off. ;)
All that said, the location, friendliness, convenience, and cost were probably worth it for us as we were only there for a quick night’s sleep before an international flight the next day. So overall, 3/5!
