"Amazing service. Great staff. Clean and comfortable"

"A few things to know before you book: the property from the outside looked a little dated but the inside was well appointed and relatively well maintained. They provide a great breakfast but that is it. Everything else is a separate charge including parking (I actually got a ticket because I didn’t realize I needed to prepay my parking) and the pool/ water park. The pools were great, there are 2 bigger slides and one small one, an indoor pool, an indoor/outdoor pool, and two large kiddie pools. The room was nice and well set up but there was a horrible smell in the bathroom that never went away. We didn’t report or complain but I would think the staff would have known about it. Overall the hotel and amenities are showing their age. There is mini-golf but it’s tiny. There is the SuperPark which looks fun for younger kids (all at separate surcharges). It could be a great getaway for a day or two but that’s it. "

"When it says "hostel" right on the label, it's reasonable to expect a spartan environment. The S/S Bore is exactly what it says; a private room really is a narrow cabin in a retired Baltic steamship. That said, there *is* a private bathroom and shower (extremely small but it's your own.) The biggest issue was the stagnant air in the room. My stateroom was in a lower deck and really hot. Upper decks were cooler. It was unseasonably warm in Turku during my stay, and the room never dropped below 80F / 27C. The porthole (not a window, a real porthole) could not be opened, and the solid door did not allow any air to enter the room when closed. Even though the air extractor in the ceiling and bathroom were both running, there was no place for cool air to enter. It was stifling. Other things to know: bedding is provided, but you make your own bed upon arrival. There's no traditional room cleaning. Overall the room was clean but the carpet was better without close inspection. There was only one electrical outlet in the room and one in the tiny bathroom, so hopefully you only need to plug in one device. Breakfast is included and serviceable in the scandanavian/make-a-sandwich kind of way. Would I stay there again? Well, I needed to be close to the Turku castle for a music festival so the location was ideal, and the price was right even when all the traditional hotels were ridiculously overpriced, so well, yes, maybe I would. But I'd really want a fan in the summer."
