Guest Reviews
- Irina (10/5): Место, куда хочется возвращаться снова и снова. - -супер хорошее местоположение: море, природа, тишина
-номер с видом на море
-возможность пользоваться холодильником и микроволновой печью
- приятное обслуживание и сама атмосфера в данном месте
- Sormunen (9/5): - Rauhallinen paikka Jälkiruoka loppui ruokailussa kesken 🫠 vanha talo, sokerimuurahaisia ja sokeritoukkia alakerrassa
- Kai (9/5): - Palvelualttius selkäystävällisen vuoteen järjestämisessä. Myöhäinen aamiainen.
- Erika (9/5): Merenrannalla suojattua rauhaa introvertille - Hiljainen ympäristö. Siisti huone. Viileä huone, joten uni maistui. Puuro oli tosi hyvää aamupalalla. Aamupalan valikoima oli pettymys. Paahtoleipää ja sekaleipää. Kaipasin tuoretta lämmintä leipää. Ei ollut tuoreita hedelmiä ja kahvi oli pahaa.
- Irina (9/5): Великолепно :) - Супер местоположение. Уютные номера, приятная атмосфера и вежливое обслуживание. Останавливались здесь уже несколько раз и обязательно вернёмся снова.
- Marek (6/5): - Die Laage ist Super Frühstück, da muss man noch arbeiten dadrüber. Unbedingt!
- jenni (10/5): - Hotelli hienolla sijainnilla. Kauniit rauhoittavat maisemat. Sielun rauhaa.
- Tord (6/5): Mer vandrarhem än hotell. - Kringliggande miljö var trevlig och väldigt bra om man har hund med sig. Väldigt trist frukost. Torftigt rum, typ vandrarhem. Ingen städning och ingen påfyllnad av kaffe på rummet. Inget hårschampo på rummet.

Henkilökunta oli ystävällistä.
Ulkona oli ihanan hiljaista.
Pysäköinti ilmainen.
Rauhoittava meri näkymä.
- Marge (8/5): - Avar ja kauni rannavaatega tuba mändide ja kaljude keskel, väga vaikne keskkond, rahulik atmosfäär, üllatuslik kohtumine kunstnikega mosaiigistuudios. Kööginurgas võiks olla toidunõud, fuajee sohvanurk välisukse kõrval oli novembrikuus jahedavõitu, paar pleedi võiks lisaks olla.
- Arell-Sundberg (9/5): Avslappnat boende mitt i naturen med allt man behöver för en lyckad övernattning - Närheten till naturen och samtidigt inte långt från Helsingfors centrum Skulle gärna ha sett att receptionen skulle ha varit öppen till kl 18

Die Haltestelle des städtlschen Linienbusses direkt am Hotel.
- Jens (8/5): - Location close to the sea. Staff very friendly. Difficult public transport
- Oksana (10/5): -
- Tanja (7/5): - Ympäristö ja henkilökunta Illalla saisi olla palveluita vielä tarjolla
- Johanna (8/5): Very nice and peaceful atmosphere. - Room was clean and spacious, and the balcony was very nice with a sea view. The room was peaceful and quiet. The location was very beautiful and peaceful by the sea, yet close to all amenities.
Breakfast was sufficient enough with all the usual breakfast stuff. The facilities were old and obviously in need of some renovation. The reception wasn't open when I arrived. I was supposed to fetch my room key from a locker, but I had gotten a wrong code in a message so the locker wouldn't open up. Luckily there was someone from the staff around, and we got the issue sorted out.
- Tomi (5/5): - Siisteys, rauhallinen. Aika kuluneen oloinen, homeen hajua käytävässä.
- Alexey (10/5): -
- Salonen (8/5): Mukava yöpyminen - Miljöö ihana. Hotelli rannassa. Rakennus vanha, mutta kaikki oli kuiten siistiä. Sängyt hyvät nukkua. Majoituimme c talosssa, joka "vanhempi siipi". Lakanat, pussilakanat siistit ja pehmeät ihoa vasten. Parveke kiva lisä huoneessa. Aamupalala uunimunakasta, pikkunakkeja, karjalan piirakoita, puuroa. Leipää, kroisantteja, leikkeleitä juustoa, jugurttia, marjoja. Salaattia, tomaattia, kurkkua. Kahvia, teetä, omenatuoremehua. Hyvä Perus aamiainen. -

- Nils-Christian (9/5): - Traumhafte Lage...sehr ruhig. Ideal zum Abschalten
- Kaarin (10/5): -
- Olivia (10/5): Lovely peaceful and tranquil place. - My family found it a very peaceful and gentle place to stay with friendly and helpful staff. They wished they had double beds, but they were okay with singles.
- Cia (6/5): Pleasant -
- Petra (7/5): It was quite that what you excpect to get that amount of money. - View from the room was awesome! Room didn't have shampoo or conditioner.
- Mihhail (9/5): Superb -
- Zahra (7/5): Good -
- Anthony (6/5): Pleasant -
- Peter_sf (10/5): A great place to stay in beautiful, peaceful surroundings - I was just looking for a place to stay on the outskirts of Helsinki - and found a little paradise! If you don't mind the seminar center-style, this is very peaceful: among high pine trees, right by the ocean, away from the noise of the city. Once parked, you can reach the metro station by walking a pleasant 30 minutes (2 km) and are in downtown Helsinki in no time. Personnel were very friendly, breakfast in a large dining hall tasty.
- Davoll (9/5): Superb - Great room after long day riding.
Good shower.
Good parking for bikes.
Breakfast was OK.
Place has great views. Quite a walk from anywhere to get something to eat in evening.
- Caune (7/5): Good -
- Joanna (10/5): Exceptional - Charming place with super friendly staff. Quiet forest around, beautiful views, good place to rest and relax. Very clean rooms, nice breakfast.
- Dmitry (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ian (9/5): Superb - It's an absolute 5 star location! Set near the end of an idyllic peninsula with some lovely beaches and trees lining either side of the small road. Beautiful and peaceful.. and yet, a very easy cycle of under 10 minutes to the M1 Metro stop and then 17 minutes to the very centre of Helsinki. I loved it!
Room was a good size, very dated but clean and had everything I needed, and a view through the trees to the sea beyond. Breakfast was absolutely fine, hot and cold offerings and berries :-) There was nothing I really didn't like
- Milan (10/5): Exceptional -
- Dana (9/5): Superb - Nice nature around, close to the sea. Very good breakfest, nice people. The Bus doesnt go on weekends.
- Mikko (7/5): Good place for budget-minded travelers - Great location by the seaside in an extremely quiet and peaceful area. The place seemed to be favored by religious guests, some orthodox iconography here and there, and even a chapel. :) The buildings are a bit old, I'm guessing from late 70's or early 80's and it shows on the outside. Interiors are quite basic, as you would expect at this very low price point, but good enough unless you plan to spend a lot of time in your room. Our rooms didn't have AC, but at least on the first floor the rooms stayed cool as the area is well covered by trees. The tiling in the bathroom could have been cleaned better. I'm not sure if it was because we requested early check-in. I would prefer that house-keeping prioritize bathrooms even under time pressure.
- Kaiti (8/5): Very good -
- Josip (10/5): Exceptional -
- Abdul (7/5): Good -
- Evi (5/5): Average - It was very clean People coming in my room when I´m naked after a shower. Cleaning staff. At 11 am while checkout was 12.00
- Gtmartinelli (5/5): Passable - Scenic, remote setting. Subpar quality, extremely overpriced.
- Adrian (7/5): Good -
- Piotr (7/5): Super calm place in a beautiful peninsula but a bit old style... - It was the most silent and quiet place I've ever visited!
Super beautiful peninsula!
Well connected by the bus and the metro!
Nice balcony with a beautiful view and it's super calm there.
Tasty breakfast!
Not many people around. The style is super old and communistic-like - it can be refreshed a bit.
After entering the room the smell was slightly strange, but after ventilating it was OK.
A bit strangely arranged toilet.
- Dmitry (10/5): Exceptional -
- Karla (10/5): Perfect connection to nature - The view Nothing
- Radoslaw (9/5): Nice location, great staff, good value for money - It was one of the best of my stays recently, although I haven’t met the team because I arrived late and left early. I found the place where keys were locked because I got a perfect map upfront. I also got a delicious packed breakfast which I enjoyed at a ferry later on.
- Валерия (4/5): Disappointing - Excellent location everything is very old. renovation is required. does not match the price
- Anna (9/5): Peaceful and amazing surroundings - The location was completely stunning and ery good for those wanting to take a break in the nature, or to hike. There are a few trails around the area, but no extended hikes. There is also plenty of places to swim, one public beach that also have a play area for kids and an outside gym further down the cape and another one just before the cape. The former one also has a small shop and lifeguards, the latter I only walked passed so I don't know much about it. In the hotel there is a lot to do, books to borrow, games and the peace and quite of just sitting outside. Unfortunately, the pool and sauna wasn't open when I was visiting, that would've been an extra plus. The walls are quite thin in the rooms.
- Nick (8/5): Very good -
- Светлана (10/5): Great relaxation for body and soul - comfortable room with a beautiful view of the Gulf of Finland. The breakfast is excellent. Complete even for a vegetarian (for example, oat milk, honey).
- Darina (10/5): Exceptional -
- Dpavtraveler (7/5): Good -
- Dima (10/5): Exceptional -
- Veneta (9/5): Quiet and relaxing - I was impressed by the view and the location . The room was a good size, comfortable and quiet. The breakfast was also very good. It is a place were you could stay for a few days, just to relax.
- Marcus (3/5): Okey budget facility but not for asthmatics. - We liked the location, a bit remote of Helsinki. Old in every aspect. Extremely noisy and uncomfortable.
- Christoph (10/5): Exceptional - Incredible location, directly at the sea. Super calm and quiet. Also really enjoyed the little walk in town on really beautiful paths along the sea and through the woods.
- Gyn (8/5): Very good - Location was surrounded by forests and walking distance to the sea. Super clean and fresh air. Beds were comfy and there's a nice spot to watch the sunset.
