CheapSleep Hostel Helsinki

It’s my 4th time staying here & I always love to come back here. The stuff, cleanliness, location, ambiance everything is 10 out of 10

Good location bear to groceries shop like Alepa 👍🏻🙏

The hostel is easy to find after you get the bus 600 from outside the airport, which costs 4.10 euros. 30mins journey from airport to hotel via bus. The hostel itself is clean and has friendly female staff who were super nice and provided snacks etc during the football matches each day. You get a free to use locker in the room using the same keycard for entry etc. There is also a 24hour supermarket downstairs, and a nice kebab shop across the street. Overall, decent place to stay if you want to explore Helsinki. The Asian looking male member of staff at reception was disgusting, didn’t wash his hands after going toilet which I saw! Laughed when I told him to wash his hands, reported him to trip and to the hostel too. Really off putting, but other than that, no issues. Breakfast was simple but filling, and the hostel provides free water at reception.

My wife, our infant, and I stayed here for a night while in Helsinki. As a backpackers' hotel, it's popular among budget travelers, so we didn't expect anything special. The staff were friendly and accommodating. However, i felt like our room was quite small and a bit dusty, which made our infant sneeze. The kitchen amenities and common toilet were well-cleaned and maintained, although they can get busy at times. Overall, it's a good option for a short stay and is very budget-friendly.
