"The hotel is close to the train and bus station and also Kampii shopping centre. I only stayed there for three nights. The breakfast had a nice variation of hot and cold choices. It was also well located for the sights of Helskinki. I would definitely choose to stay there again if I visit Helskinki. I have to say Marcus who checked me in was very helpful"
