“The best thing about this hostel is it's location on Suomenlinna. If you want to take an amazing evening ferry to see the sunset over Helsinki and then take a morning walk and look at the endless sea horizon, then I strongly recommend to stay...” - Eliška

“Great atmosphere, everything that I needed for a sleepover. Nice to have tea available all the time in a common room. Bathrooms very clean and colorful:) But the island location by the ferry is the best.” - Adam
Sweden
“It's pretty easy getting to the island and back (24 hr ticket = 9 euros) as they go frequently. The late check-in could be an issue for some if you arrive early, but you can still leave your bags in the hostel and explore the island fortress...” - Isik
Belgium
“The location was amazing, for those who don't know about it, it's the only hotel/hostel on this beautiful island. If you look for peace and a way to relax, I guess this should be the exact choice. I got to give credit to the guy at the reception...” - Diana
