Guest Reviews
- Varpu (8/5): Hyvä sijainti, rauhallinen yöpymiseen. - Hyvä sijainti on tämän asunnon ehdottomasti paras puoli, ja siellä oli keskeiseen sijaintiin nähden yllättävän rauhallista. Asuntoon ei kuulunut mitään ulkoa tai muista asunnoista. Hyvät unet ja mukava sänky. Sisäänkirjautuminen, asiakasportaali, epäjohdonmukainen (kylläkin ystävällinen) kommunikointi. Tässä asiakaskokemuksessa olisi paljon parannettavaa.
Huoneisto on melko kulunut, lattiat ja seinät etenkin. Keittiön hana vuotaa tiskipöydälle. Käsipyyhe puuttui. Jääkaappi ei pysynyt päällä ja ostamani aamupalat pilaantuivat.
Asunnossa ja parvekkeella oli tupakan hajua vaikka asunto on savuton.
- Keita (7/5): It was good. - The location is centered and it’s very good. Well I had a short stay I may not be able to tell much.
- Agnese (9/5): -
- phetcharat (10/5): -
- Dima (10/5): Helsinki - Чисто , зручно все як на фото Не спрацьовували двері ,прийшлось чекати 15 хв на вулиці
- Kohtanen (9/5): - Hyvä sänky, mukavuudet, parveke sauna Online check- in todella vaativa, jo precheck, kolme sähkölukkoa, monien yritysten jälkeen saatiin auki, asunnon ovi ei auennut, olisi pitänyt käyttää Green Boston.Epäselvästi ilmaistu koska olikin sovelluksessa . Avain saatiin lopulta toimistolta ja sekään ei toiminut heti. Tähän kului tunti ja hermot.
- فهد (10/5): موقع ممتاز وشعار مناسب نوعا ما - كله تمام الحجز التامين
- I-Chen (5/5): 若只是睡覺和考量裝潢來說還不錯,但是時不時的缺點影響住宿體驗,若有其他住宿選擇不建議這間 (除非很想洗桑拿) - 住宿地點非常方便,距離車站、地鐵和超市都很近,且附有廚房因此可以很容易準備食物,布置也都非常漂亮,且有桑拿室 這次住宿是三天兩夜共三人,但毛巾和被單僅有準備兩人分,跟服務人員反應後請我們找櫥櫃,但櫥櫃是空的,反應是空的之後客服請我寫email寄信,寄信之後完全消失,11點快12點才回覆說隔天會補上缺少的物品,隔天才回覆說備品在沙發床底下,服務品質非常不好,有一天有一人是在沒有棉被的情況下睡覺的。另外,時常會發現有壞掉的東西,住宿方會在入住前收取200歐元的押金,但偏偏在入住時就有很多東西是壞的 (例如桑拿的燈罩掉下來、水龍頭漏水、室外陽台燈泡插電不亮等等) ,若有入住發現壞掉的東西建議一律拍照儲存以保護自己的權益
- Arto (6/5): Fantastisk sentral beliggenhet med heis rett ned til Kamppi kjøpesenter og bussforbindelser - Kjøkkenet manglet grunnleggende ting for å kunne lage mat. Det var for eksempel ingen krydder som salt, pepper og sukker. Sauna er for en person av gangen.
- Anne (9/5): - Posizione perfetta, balcone top Il fatto che mancavano le istruzioni cartacee per l'uso della sauna che non sono riuscita ad utilizzare
- Kyösti (8/5): - Sisäänpääsy ohjeista
Pääsin sis n 18 kun noudin avaimen itse
- 은경 (5/5): - 사우나가 있어서 좋았고. 도시중심에 있어요 숙소 안내가 부킹닷컴에 나오는 숙소 사진과 달랐고. 입구 찾아 비번 입력이 너무 힘들었어요. 영어로 소통도 잘 안돼서 고생했어요. 도어 시스템이 어려웠어요. 안내도 잘못해줘서 짜증 폭발요
- Volha (10/5): -
- Anne (9/5): -
- Matthias (6/5): - Schöner Balkon, gut ausgestattete Küche, sehr groß, perfekte Lage, einfaches Einchecken mit guter Anleitung leider war die Wohnung etwas zu warm (bei 25+ Außentemperatur), ein Ventilator/Klimaanlage wäre perfekt gewesen
- Marja-Liisa (1/5): Päästäkää vieras sisään, kiitos. - En päässyt sisälle asuntoon. Ilman avaimia toimiva systeemi vaatii älypuhelinta, jonka kautta on avattava oma varaus. Varauksen kautta on avattava ovi. Entä jos kulkee yksinkertaisella puhelimella niin kuin minä tuolloin? Puhelimeen ei vastata. Lopputulos oli, etten päässyt sisään lainkaan. Jos olisin tiennyt tästä, en olisi lainkaan varannut. Rahoja ei palauteta. Täytyisi ohjeistaa jo alkuun, että sisäänpääsy on helppoa vain, jos on viimeisen päälle kehittynyt tekniikka mukana. Mielestäni varausta on muutenkin vaikea availla, eli se on monen klikkauksen takana. Yllätys on myös se, että varauksen jälkeen täytyy kopioida passit / henkilöpaperit ja ottaa itsestään valokuva.
- Basanta (8/5): superb for short biz stays at central location with great transport options - location was superb.
place was neat and clean.
- Michael (10/5): Exceptional -
- Graham (10/5): Amazing apartment, great location, let down by poor check in - Amazing location and a really great apartment with everything you could possibly need. Having a glazed balcony was a great addition and a great place to cool down after a sauna. Check in. We booked an hour earlier check in and when we put the code in the machine to collect the keys it was empty. We tried calling the two emergency numbers but no one responded. It was by sheer luck, that after waiting for 20 minutes we decided to go and have a coffee and to keep trying the numbers, as we left a cleaner arrived and she had our keys. So after scrolling through emails to prove our booking we finally got our keys. Hardly a luxury experience
- Omar (8/5): Ideal apartment for a weekend getaway - Great location and very accessible to public transportation within the area A little bit overpriced for the accommodation complex overall
- Nicole (9/5): Superb -
- Flavio (7/5): excellent location, nice terrace, but somehow small and expensive - perfect location in the center of Helsinki
very nice terrace with glass windows all around and heather for the colder days all in all very small ok for 2 persons, 2 adults and 2 kids is already squeezed in.
the sauna is for 1, max 2 ( very intimate)persons
in finland everything is expensive, so i will not make a separate point of the price/size of the apartment but it was indeed not cheap.
- Patrizia (9/5): Super centrally located amazing apartment including a private sauna. - Key were picked up from a little office and it was very close to the accommodation, but there was little flexibility on the check in times. Sadly very little check in flexibility and it was a rather late check in time.
- Arlen (8/5): Good location and the sauna is great - The location is great, appliances are a bit dated but they function and apartment is well decorated and comfortable, the sauna is a plus. My questions were responded quick. The check in is quite late, maybe is normal for Finland but I usually have check in times at 2 or 3 pm.
Would be great if you could provide basic cooking ingredientes, salt and pepper at least.
- Kristen (10/5): Very comfortable apartment in an ideal location - The location of the apartment was great, within walking distance of many sights, shopping,etc..
It was very comfortable and roomy and we liked the outside porch/balcony. Perhaps I missed the information in the apt. description, but wasn’t sure where to put trash(found a neighbor to tell me floor 3) .
- Matias (8/5): Very good -
- Verified traveler (2/5): - No keytag to access apartment from the mall
- Ari (9/5): Superb - Brilliant location and Sauna did it for me. Essy access to shops 👏
- Adam (2/5): Stay elsewhere - Nice porch and sauna. Pretty close to a public transit stop. No internet, and no attempt made by staff to resolve the issue. To “make up for it” they offered a 10% discount on future stays… as if I’d pay 10% less to stay somewhere without internet in 2024.
The apartment wasn’t very clean; dishwasher was loaded with dirty dishes. We needed to put down a $200 security deposit on Stripe which I suspect is going to become a problem getting back. Additionally, we needed to pick up the keys to the apartment in a separate location about a 5 walk away.
- Stephen (10/5): Well worth it, I will use it again. - The location was good and the property was excellent. Nice and spacious and the sauna was a bonus. Finding the apartment would be tricky without the excellent instructions provided.
- Ioannis (8/5): Very good - The sauna, the location, the balcony and it was very clean. I didn't like the check in at 4 o'clock
I didn't like that the key for the main entrance was not always working and as a result we stayed about 5 minutes outside in the street
I didn't like that we had to clean our room before the check out and throw all of our carbage and clean the dishes.
- Alo (9/5): pleasant - terrace, sauna complicated path in the building
- Johan (7/5): Good - Couldn’t get the sauna working.
- Cynthia (5/5): Passable - The sauna and porch were very nice. The apartment is located close to the central train station and other points of interest. The key system did not work. Even a staff member could not open the key IX with the code I was assigned. Also, the staff was rude.
- Maxwell (9/5): It was good. The room was clean and spacious -
- Vytautas (9/5): Superb - 4pm check in not too convenient
- Ekaterina (9/5): Very good space with sauna and nice view - Excellent location, comfortable and clean apartment. -
- Ira (8/5): Superb location & good people - A very good apartment at a great location, literally on top of Kamppi center. Staff were really nice and helpful, stepping up to assist immediately when there was a problem..
Ultimately, a very good deal at the price we paid for it. The apartment is publicized as a 1 bedroom apartment, and so I was expecting a living room and a bedroom. But it was a studio apartment, which means only 1 room.
There is a 200 euro deposit which is not mentioned in the add..
There needs to be instructions for operating the sauna.
The following is written considering the apartment's original price as stated in the add is over 200 Euros (even though we got it at a 40% discount)
The apartment looks good in general, but it needs some touch-ups. With the cheap prices of screens today, you should really get a bigger TV for the room. 32 inch just doesn't cut it, especially with the big white wall in its background which makes it seem even more minute. The main ceiling light cord which was attached with double sided foam tape didn't hold up, and the cord was dangling down which also gave the room a cheap look. the shower head holder kept sliding down its pole, and that was a bugger.
This apartment has so much potential, but you need to give more attention to the little details.
- Erika (8/5): Very good -
- Sze (8/5): Very good -
- Hanna (10/5): Exceptional -
- Dounia (1/5): nightmare - the worst experience in our life . We thought we booked one bed room but actually it was a studio ! so it was a wrong information on booking and we never received any refund ! it was horrible ! we booked for 3 nights and finally we spent just one night with our 2 small kids .
we booked something with a real one bedroom. the staff was so rude and no professional.
an advice don’t book with them everything
- Jekaterina (9/5): Superb - Great location
- Margaret (8/5): Very good - It was self catering. Kitchen fully equipped. Heating good. Washer and drier also. My two requests were met Balcony and Sauna. Sauna instructions could have been better. I did not like having to place a £200 euro deposit bond pre any issues ie breakages etc. Need to check if it's still in my bank. Local map of Kamppi. Packed with adventures friends meals out.
- Aleksandra (10/5): Super cosy place, I wish I had more time here - The apartment is super cosy. The balcony is a dream. The apartment has everything what you need, it is clean and nice. The refrigerator made a noise, but seems that it was broken at that day we stayed and now fixed. Anyway it was easy to turn it off.
- Victoria (9/5): Lovely apartment - Location was great. Close walk to Central terminal, quick tram ride to water front, and located near a mall and supermarket. Room was comfortable and spacious. Balcony was lovely!!! All the amenities were great. Wish the sauna worked or we knew how to work it :( also, follow the directions exact from the booking to avoid any confusion.
- Andrew (9/5): Superb -
- Ross (10/5): - Perfect location for summer stay with my daughter: so many excellent food choices and shopping options and attractions. Easy walk to the beach and the market for ferries and numerous museums as well as rail and busses (in the mall).
It would be noisy in the morning with windows open in the summer, as the streets are cleaned at like 5 AM and construction started as well, but it was really quiet in the apartment with everything shut, and the AC worked great in the short times we used it.
Balcony is as it looks, and it's really special. Easy to open windows. We really enjoyed the couch, chair, and dining table, people-watching below. The place was very clean and comfortable.
Couple quirks: there were only 2 forks in the otherwise well-supplied kitchen. There are 2 microwaves, but only one worked. When we arrived, the place was very clean, but only one bed was made. Easy fix.
Communication was very friendly and perfect (easy to organize a late checkout for 15 Euro an hour online), except they did not have a passkey for the direct-mall-access elevator, which I'd read about in other reviews. No problem.
Overall, it was exceptional.
- Keyse (10/5): - Sijainti
- R E S (8/5): Great location - The apartment is in a fantastic location, and is easily accessed. The elevator can also take you straight to the ground floor of Kamppi shopping centre.
The apartment has a spacious living-dining-kitchen area, and large balcony with table for 4, sofa and sun lounger. I was staying in July, and there was direct sunlight around 7-9pm. The bedrooms are OK size, and double bed (2 singles pushed together) was comfortable enough.
Sauna is small but good.
With a bit of investment, this apartment could be so much better:
- It is starting to show its age. Some cupboards and drawers broken.
- The kitchen is poorly equipped. Crockery and glasses OK, but little and poor quality cooking equipment. Only 1 kitchen knife, no tin opener etc. Basics you would expect.
- There is inadequate storage. The one cupboard in the bedroom is old and part-broken. The other bedroom has no storage at all. I was a solo traveller - if occupancy were 4 people you'd be living out of your luggage.
(yet strangely the kitchen has 2 full-height fridge-freezers!)
- Ceramic hob is old and takes a very long time to heat up, then stays too hot.
- Balcony windows were absolutely filthy on the outside.
Communication with property good.
I would stay here again, but €2-3k could make this property great.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - I like the private sauna room.
The apartment is big and grand.
10 mins walk from Helsinki railway station.
Response from host is quick.
The only negative thing is I could not feel the heater at all. Tried but could not find a way to turn it on.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Good location. Balcony and sauna are particularly good.
