Receptionists were so cooperative and helping. Room with kitchen, helped us to make quick dinner. We also got utensils very easily in hostel.

Rooms were clean and very spacious. We were in Building A and it felt very secure - needed a key to enter the building, operate the lift and then (obviously) enter room. There's a small supermarket across the road which was very convenient.

눉The hostel is spread across a few buildings so there are limited opportunities to interact with other guests (if that's your thing). We never even saw another person in the corridors of our building. Some staff were very friendly and helpful, others were a little rude (and there was always a bit of a wait at reception). There are no safes in the rooms - so I had to pay 3 euro (if I remember correctly) to keep valuables locked in the reception area for 24 hours. Hostel was fairly expensive, but it's Finland so as expected.
눇Rooms were clean and very spacious. We were in Building A and it felt very secure - needed a key to enter the building, operate the lift and then (obviously) enter room. There's a small supermarket across the road which was very convenient.
