Not worth the price
Pros: - good Wi-Fi - easy to find - check in instructions are sent via sms Cons: - Shower drain in 2 showers were broke and water was flooded - Sauna is not every day - The rooms doors are very noisy when being closed , it will slap very hard if you don’t hold it and when that happen, you can feel beds are shaking/ vibrating - Uncomfortable hard bed / pillows can be renewed - very Late check in 16:00 and early check out 11:00 - not worth the amount I paid at all (~65€)

No frills, no fuss Hostel
This is a no frills, no fuss Hostel right in the centre of the downtown area. It's still quiet even during a concert, partly because there are no windows. The shared facilities (showers, kitchen and wc) are located in the centre with the rooms around the edges. So other guests could be a problem, but we had no such issues. Parking is an issue, it's more suitable for those travelling with public transport

Great destination for introverts. Check-in is automated, and all rooms are private and secure. Kitchen facilities are small and disappointingly basic. Facility is impeccably clean and well kept, reasonable priced, and smack in the middle of the downtown hub.

Hiukan puutteita
Roskikset olivat pieniä (tilavuus 5 litraa) niin huoneissa kuin vessoissa. Ehkäpä siitä syystä paperia ja roskia joutuu lattialle. Pyyhetelineet vessoissa oli rikki. Korjasin itse sängynportaikon liitoksen. Onneksi huomasin ettei liitos ollut kohdillaan eikä sattunut vahinkoa portaikon huojuessa vaarallisesti. Kylpyläkuvissa näkyy kuva kahdesta vesi-/kylpyaltaasta. Sauna löytyi, mutta kylpyaltaita ei. Ehkä ne oli lukitun oven takana. Pettymys, sillä odotin pääsyä kuvailtuun spahan.

Rahalle ok vastine
Hinta-laatusuhde ok. Ainoa moite on käytäviltä kuuluvat äänet ja huone oli vähän viileä omaan makuun.

Herätys klo 6
Karmea poraus huoneessa aamu 6 alkaen. Sireeni huutaa ja koneet jauhaa korvan vieressä, jos kyseessä ikkunahuone kadulle. Mahdoton nukkua. Toistunut usean majoituskerran tässä paikassa. Muut huoneet paremmat.

Vaihtoehtoinen nukkumispaikka
Huone ei vastannut lainkaan nettipalvelun valokuvia. Huone soveltuu ainoastaan nukkumiseen.

It would be good that the information would be easier to find in the homepage. For example about sauna times, there was no info about the in the homepage. The homepage information and the information at the spot was not the same. At the homepage, it said that it is okey that friends and family visit, at the hostel it said that it is forbidden that any people outside the booking use the facilities. It felt a bit confusing. In hotels.com it said that the room does not have sheets, but in their own homepage it stood that there are. And there were sheets. Very clean and fresh ones. Place was clean, but the mattress had some spots, also the wall. Could be even better cleaned I think.

Hotellista pari sanaa
Huoneen jääkaappi "piilotettu" rumaan ja isoon vanerikaapin sisälle, kaappi vei turhaa tilaa ja vaikeutti jääkaapin löytämistä. Miksi kaikki pistokkeet sijoitettu lattian rajaan, eikö olisi voinut laittaa vaikka yhden pöytätason korkeuteen. Olisin myös kaivannut toista tyynyä. No yhden yön majoitukseen ok. Saunominen perjantaina naisille loppui jo klo 19 kun se ma-to mahdollista 22 asti. Miksi näin?

Hei, Huoneeni näytti siistiltä mutta nukutun yön jälkeen sain allergisia reaktioita jalkoihini? Saunaan en päässyt miesten saunavuoron ajankohtana. Saunan ovi oli lukittuna pesuhuoneen puolelta!
