Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
An old-ish apartment building converted to a hostel, it's good bang for your buck. Keep your expectations modest and you'll be happily surprised by the size of the rooms and especially the location. If you just need a place to crash and have breakfast, it's perfect.
It's a simple dormitory apartment with a well equipped kitchen, single beds, a desk and most of the things you need for a short stay. The basic sports equipment in the closet was the best thing that I've never seen anywhere else before. Typical Finnish breakfast that's included into the price is also a plus.
We were in Finland for the first time and the whole country is awesome. The Islo Hostel was the best choice for us, as it was close to the center on foot and had breakfast.
The hostel is well-equipped and clean, the staff is very kind and helpful.
Right in the centre of town, clean, quiet, a place to sleep and have a shower, parking in an inside yard (safe for car), price for car + 2 people 160 Euros = 40/person/night which is OK.
This hostel was one of the best hostel I have ever been to. The showers were excellent, toilets with bidet showers. Everything amazing.
