Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were extremely clean and smelled fresh, which is rare these days. I loved having an in-room sauna and a large enclosed balcony. The size of the rooms was quite spacious, especially by European standards, and everything was tidy. However, I was a bit disappointed by the lack of transparency from the staff regarding known issues prior to my check-in.
The hotel offers spacious and clean rooms with comfy beds, tea, and coffee making facilities. The service is friendly and efficient, and the location is ideal for walking around the city. The dining experience is amazing with a vast variety of delicious options.
The hotel provides a spacious room with a balcony offering distant sea views, despite being made from cheap materials. The rooms are nice, a bit small but suitable for two persons. The staff is very friendly and helpful, although unprepared for known issues. The location is excellent, allowing easy access to various places in the city. The dining experience offers a variety of options, but not all inclusive in the price. Overall, a mix of positive and negative aspects to consider.
Upon arriving, the rooms needed some fresh air, but were generally in good condition. They were nice, albeit a bit small for two persons, providing a decent and quiet stay. The hotel service was a mix of very friendly and helpful staff, though there was an issue that left us uncertain about their overall professionalism. The location was excellent, situated right in the middle of the city, making it very convenient for exploring. The dining experience fell short of expectations with limited selections, indicating room for improvement. The hotel facilities were satisfactory and served their purpose.
The hotel rooms were cozy and quiet with air conditioning, offering a comfortable stay. However, noise from the corridor and outside sources could be a disturbance, which is typical for hotels in Finland.
