Private rooms near metro, free parking,direct bus from airport, hotel in Helsinki

Featuring mountain views, Private rooms near metro, free parking, direct bus from airport provides accommodation with patio, around 13 km from Helsinki Olympic Stadium.

The room is conveniently close to the metro, and the organizers were very cooperative when I accidentally took the shared key with me. However, when I entered my room, it didn’t smell clean at all—it had a bit of a sweaty smell, so I had to keep the door open to air it out. The shared toilet was few sometimes messy, with beard hair on the mirror and unflushed waste (other guests). If you're looking for a cheap option, it works, but cleanliness may be an issue in this shared setup.

    Located in nice neighbourhood, let me get a sense of the daily life of locals, yet easy to go to city centre. 10 min walk to metro and supermarkets. Direct bus to airport. Hosts are helpful and accommodating. Shared bathroom just next to room, both are clean and have enough space.

    Amazing stay! Central location - 5 min walk from main train station and all city center attractions. Superb service - all we asked was answered very quick (luck of reception was not a problem at all). Room was very clean, bed comfortable, there was tea and coffee (very good quality) to prepare in the room + extra things which surprised us like yoga mat, gym access cards and many more :) Breakfast was served in nearby cafes which made us feel more like locals :)

    Beds are comfortable. The heating is working well so you don’t freeze. Great location, many sightseeing spots are walking distance. The window view makes you calm. There were some soap to use and also kitchen is well equipped. Great host of the apartment.~

    ' The Yard is lovely hostel with a cosy, friendly and sociable vibe. Great location for accessing the city, and it’s so easy to get about using trams and buses - just don’t forget to get a pass in advance (download the HSL app an d purchase the required tickets).
