It’s the only public option for spending the night at Helsinki’s brilliant sea fortress
FinlandThe ferry comes often and all hours. The grocery store is very convenient as is having a refrigerator & kitchen to use. The island is a treasure to explore. The room & facilities were clean & comfortable. Just what I needed. There were a range of ages staying there so, especially having a private room, it was not like staying at a youth hostel.
United States of America*The staff are very helpful and nice. *The hostel is located on an archipelago, which is a UNESCO Heritage site. The history on the Island is breathtaking *The rooms, washrooms and the entire building is very clean and well maintained *I like the decor too *It's value for money for sure
