albergo di buon livello comodo per visitare Helsinki.
Pros:

Posizione strategica, vicino alla stazione Centrale e servita da molti mezzi pubblici, camera abbastanza ampia e pulita, silenziosa. Colazione eccellente. Letti comodi.

Cons:

La doccia scomodissima che allaga tutto il bagno, il doccino accanto al water che funziona solo se si apre l'acqua del lavandino, il sistema di illuminazione. Non ci hanno rifatto il letto nonostante avessimo esposto il biglietto che la camera poteva essere riordinata.

Definitely on my list to go to again.
Pros:

Room was lovely...a bit close to the elevators though. Breakfast was full of options. The train station is so close! Sightseeing was great from this location, with an easy walk everywhere or cabs waiting if it was raining.

Cons:

Tiny coffee cups, having to tell them what time we would be there for breakfast - as international travelers jet lag and sightseeing made a specific time challenging. No Sunday evening food/drink - had to search out an alternate, and bar across the square was excellent.

Viihtyisä ja sijainniltaan hyvä.
Pros:

Loistava sijainti, hyvä aamiainen ja viihtyisä hotelli.

Cons:

Kolmen hengen huoneen kolmas sänky oli nojatuoli malli. Laseja ja kahvikuppeja oli vain kahdelle.

Viikonlopun rento kaupunkiloma
Pros:

Sijainti oli mitä parhain kaupunkilomaamme varten - kaikki tärkeä oli lähellä, varsinkin kulkuyhteydet. Hotelli ja huone olivat erittäin viihtyisät ja siistit, ja vaikka vessamme pariin kertaan reistailikin, vastattiin avun oyyntöihin nopeasti ja ystävällisesti, ja lopun oleskelumme kaikki toimi oikein hyvin.

Cons:

Vessanpönttö tosiaan valutti vettä pariin otteeseen, eikä ilman toimenpiteitä lopettanut, joten jouduimme hakemaan avustusta henkilökunnalta.

Everything else was top notch!
