I love the concept and the price, but would not go if I was a light sleeper. They provide earplugs but even with those I really had trouble getting to sleep as soundproofing is next to none and the bed is sooo hard.

Good stay overall. It is a bit noisy with street noise (workers at 6:30am on Sunday) but ear plugs are provided. Basic kitchen and room had own fridge. Sauna in basement is great if the schedule works for you. Self check-in was smooth with a unique door code that works for all doors. Great location not far from train station and on main shopping street with many food options and a grocery close by.

Dont recommend Forenom, due to the difficult face ID verification application. You will end up with two bookings - one with Forenom and one where you actually stay!

Not worth the price

Pros: - good Wi-Fi - easy to find - check in instructions are sent via sms Cons: - Shower drain in 2 showers were broke and water was flooded - Sauna is not every day - The rooms doors are very noisy when being closed , it will slap very hard if you don’t hold it and when that happen, you can feel beds are shaking/ vibrating - Uncomfortable hard bed / pillows can be renewed - very Late check in 16:00 and early check out 11:00 - not worth the amount I paid at all (~65€)

It would be good that the information would be easier to find in the homepage. For example about sauna times, there was no info about the in the homepage. The homepage information and the information at the spot was not the same. At the homepage, it said that it is okey that friends and family visit, at the hostel it said that it is forbidden that any people outside the booking use the facilities. It felt a bit confusing. In hotels.com it said that the room does not have sheets, but in their own homepage it stood that there are. And there were sheets. Very clean and fresh ones. Place was clean, but the mattress had some spots, also the wall. Could be even better cleaned I think.

Sijainti loistava. Koodisysteemi toimi hyvin. 76-vuotiaana, nivelrikkoisena ihmisenä hädintuskin pääsin kiipeämään korkealla olevalle vuoteelle. Apuporraskin oli liian korkea minulle. Yölliset vessakäynnit olivat todella työläitä. Puolisoni ei nukkunut ollenkaan koko yönä. Olin maksanut kahden yön hinnan, mutta toiseksi yöksi emme enää jääneet.Onneksi ystävien kautta järjestyi majoitus muualta. Siisteys yleisissä tiloissa oli ok, mutta iltaa kohti vessojen siisteys oli heikko. Yksi naisten vessan lattia oli tulvillaan vettä koko ajan niin, ettei siellä voinut käydä. Auton pysäköinti oli todella suuri ongelma. Mistään läheltä emme onnistuneet löytämään pysäköintipaikkaa. Jälleen turvauduimme ystävien apuun. Jätimme auton ystävien talon pihaan Jyskään ja ystävämme kuljetti meitä omalla autollaan edestakaisin. Todella hankalaa ja työlästä tämä kaikki. Summa summarum: Ei pitäisi boomereiden lähteä matkustamaan minnekään.

Huone kulahtanut mutta siisti. Ikkunoita ei saatu kunnolla auki, kuumaa oli. Verhot riitti yhdelle kahdesta ikkunoista. Vessa ja kylpyhuone hyvin likaiset. Oltiin kaupungissa tapahtuman viikonloppuna, joten hinta / laatu suhde välttävä.

Äänieristys on todella surkea ja nukkuminen oli korvatulpillakin hyvin hankalaa. Kova piippaus ovikoodeista ja ovien kovaa kiinni pamahtaminen todella rasittavaa. Hinta kuitenkin kohtuu edullinen ja hyvällä paikalla. Mutta jos haluat nukkua hyvin niin älä varaa!

Huone ja yleiset tilat olivat siistit. Äänet kuuluvat toisista huoneista ja käytäviltä melko hyvin huoneeseen, mutta tätä oli mukavasti huomioitu jättämällä korvatulpat huoneeseen. Olen käynyt kohteessa useamminkin ja harmittaa, että viikonlopun saunavuorot ovat siten, että naisten saunavuoro loppuu aikaisin. Olisi mukava, jos naisten saunavuoro olisi välillä myöhemmin, jotta saunassa ehtisi käydä rauhassa kohteeseen saavuttuaan.
