Low-stress solution for morning flights from Helsinki airport

Very practical accommodation with excellent value for money.
The room was quiet and comfortable.
Shuttle service was perfectly on time.

Cons:

There was no visible thermostat in the room making it a bit too warm for my taste.

Pros:

-

Cons:

Kummallinen sisäänkirjautuminen, sisälle pääsy yöllä puhelimen varassa(ovikello ei toiminut). Epäselvät ohjeet uusista self check in käytännöistä. Huoneessa ei ollut pimennysverhoja, saavuimme 3 aikaan yöllä lennolta ja tarkoituksena oli nukkua pitempään mutta se oli mahdotonta valoisuuden takia aamulla. Kylpyhuoneessa/vessassa ei juurikaan yksityisyyttä liukuoven takia. Varhaisaamupalan hedelmät eivät olleet tuoreita ja niissä oli banaanikärpäsiä.

Good place for a short stay with Airport shuttle included
Pros:

Breakfast (early bird option, good selection). Free-of-charge shuttle to/from airport (check timetable). Check-in meanwhile made faster as you can check in online and get a code to pick up the room card.

Pros:

Siisteys

Lämmitys oli pois päältä ja ilmastointi puhalsi koko ajan kylmää. Vastaanotossa sanottiin, että ei voi säätää.

Estancia agradable
Pros:

La zona es muy agradable pero es un hotel por si quieres estar cerca de aeropuerto. A 15mts andando hay un centro comercial muy grande y a 10mts la parada del bus para ir a la ciudad de Helsinki . El hotel está limpio y el personal muy agradable. El hotel tiene un servicio de bus para ir al aeropuerto que no tarda ni 10 mts en llegar

Cons:

Si no tienes coche es muy difícil moverte para ir a ver los lagos tan maravillosos

Dieses Hotel würden wir nicht wieder buchen.
Pros:

Die Nähe zum Flughafen bei Durchreise ist praktisch,Busanbindung Richtung Zentrum in der Nähe. 24/7 Check Inn

Cons:

Das Bett ist nicht bequem,das Zimmer bietet nicht einmal Platz,um zwei Koffer gleichzeitig zu öffnen!! Im Badezimmer war der Toilettendeckel schon eine Unfallquelle,da nicht richtig befestigt,die Lüftung im Bad hat nicht funktioniert und beim Duschen setzt man das kleine Bad komplett unter Wasser,weil es der Abfluss nicht schafft!!
Im Zimmer wird man dafür durch eine Lüftungsklappe ständig mit kalter Luft,wie bei einer kalteingestellten Klimaanlage ,getroffen. Auf Nachfrage an der Rezeption,wie man diesen Zustand ändern könnte,gab es zur Antwort,das ist nicht abstellbar,wenn es zu kalt wäre,sollte man doch die Heizung aufdrehen auf Stufe 3,damit es wärmer wird!! Dabei hat die nette Frau leider nicht bedacht,die Heizung ist in den Sommermonaten komplett ausgestellt!!! Also wer sich keine Erkältung einfangen möchte,diese Unterkunft meiden!!!

Good
Pros:

Bed was nice, plenty of shelf space, good curtains, clean, tv and wifi good, breakfast good.

Parking is nice, but really expensive (9euros per night)

Cons:

Bathroom door is not good. Can hear everything going on with the sliding doors.

It is unfortunate to hear this is going selfservice without front of the house staff
