Great for messukeskus event, don’t count on the TV
Pros:

Exceptional location when attending an event at messukeskus. Near the station and easy to get to Helsinki city centre, tram goes from in front of the hotel. Room had only one duvet but the staff brought us a second one straight away when we asked for it, great service.

Cons:

Our visit was during Eurovision weekend so it was a huge let down that the TV in the room didn’t really work. It kept turning off, picture freezing, screen going dark if you turned the lights off so on so forth. Also trash can in our bathroom had trash from previous visitor in it still.
