Location was fantastic! Around 10 mins walk from the Helsinki Central Station and is literally in the city center. Lots of shops and restos nearby. Although I did not meet them personally, the staff were very helpful and always ready to respond to my messages whenever I needed something. They let me keep my luggage in their storage room even after I have checked out. They were very understanding and let me change my dates as I mistakenly mixed up the dates of my stay. Room was clean and spacious. There was a kitchenette with free tea and coffee, and a living area to mingle with other guests. Communication for online check-in was clear.

Great location and value for money. I find it really affordable considering the location. There is a fully functional kitchen and you can cook your food from scratch if you want. Free coffee and tea, sometimes milk also. The food are marked by room and check out date. Any leftovers after the owners check out, it moves to the free section. The staff are really friendly and helpful. You can leave your stuff before and after check out, there is always staff 24/7. Highly recommended and will stay here again.

The hostel had great access to historical sites, the metro, and trams. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I tried the breakfast one morning for €10—it was okay. Also, the sauna was free in the mornings, which was a nice bonus!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

The hostel is incredibly clean, organized and well equipped. Great location, close to the train station and walking distance to the main tourist atractions. The pre-checking is super good and cheers to the staff for the lovely letter and clear instructions. Probably one of the best hostels that I've ever been, congrats.

This must be our 5th or 6th stay at CheapSleep. The place is squeaky clean and offers everything one needs from a youth hostel. We stayed in a very comfy private room, the shared showers and toilets were extremely clean. The bus stop for the public airport bus is just a 2min walk away and the 24/7 supermarket in the same building comes in handy. Great value!
