Had a great time with my mom and dog. Was very surprised that it was pet friendly and really appreciated it. The surrounding saunas, cabins and lakeside were wonderful. Hope to visit again next summer!

Located in Räyskälä, within 39 km of Kärkölä Church and 44 km of Puuhamaa - Amusement Park, Kyläkaupan Motelli provides accommodation with a bar and as well as free private parking for guests who drive.

At the hostel, each room has a wardrobe. With a shared bathroom, certain rooms at Kyläkaupan Motelli also offer a balcony. Guest rooms will provide guests with a fridge. What a wonderful place! I stayed here, and the host is such a warm-hearted guy! He runs the grocery store in the summer, which also offers snacks, refreshing coffee, and everyday necessities. I think it's great to support small shops like these, as there are so many of them. Delicious local products are also available. They also offer simple overnight stays. The accommodation is simple, but exactly what I was looking for. It was warm, clean, and welcoming. Jani is a great guy who even showed me around and did everything he could to make me feel comfortable. Even though it wasn't advertised, there was breakfast, and we enjoyed the sunrise. For me, one of the most wonderful vacation experiences. So, if you don't insist on luxury but want to support a local and experience so many good things in return, then this is the place for you and you'll be rewarded with a super original little place and accommodation near the beautiful Iso Melkutin. So, from my point of view, it's a great place for a stopover or an overnight stay. Kiitos

Set a 10-minute walk from Helsinki Train Station, this hostel offers free WiFi access and a fully equipped communal kitchen. Esplanade Park is 600 metres away.

The hostel offers a 24-hour reception and security lockers. Bed linen is included in room prices. Guests can relax and socialize in the common room. The location is fantastic, I had a conference at the University of Helsinki for three days, but I also stayed two more days and went out into the city, and the main station is very easily accessible from there on foot, or if your luggage is heavy, with the trams. The kitchen seems very functional and well equipped, although I didn't have that much time to cook, but it's also a nice common area! The room was decent (5 people mixed dorm), very clean, and didn't feel overcrowded to me. My mattress could have been newer, it had lost a bit of its support. Not the most lively hostel I've stayed at, but since I was there for work, I didn't mind it being quiet in the rooms and hallways. However, they had a nice list of activities for the week, which took place in bars and venues in the area, plus a Whatsapp group so you can connect with other guests. I would have loved to try those out if I'd stayed longer, or if I get the chance to visit again.

CheapSleep Hostel Helsinki’s rooms have either a private bathroom or shared facilities. Some include a desk and a seating area. Bed linens and free lockers are provided. The staff were polite helpful and friendly. I got detailed instructions to get to a location. Lockers available for each guest. The mattress was comfortable and the sheets were cotton. The kitchen was well equipped. Plenty of public space for guests to hang out. Overall cleanliness. If the kitchen was sometimes messy, that's the guests doing. It is located right by the traditional wooden houses and you could walk or take a short bus ride to the downtown harbour area. Luggage storage available. Basically it was well organised and managed.
