Excellent accommodation for Helsinki city centre

A near perfect stay - cool, well equipped apartment in a very central part of Helsinki. Generally very quiet, however I am a very light sleeper so I was disturbed by some sounds of movement within the building. My partner slept fine though. We would definitely recommend this place to others.

Great place to stay city center

Centrally located next to the train station, shopping and Helsinki University. Well equipped and comfortable bed. The sauna and free gym pass were an added perk!

Liked most everything. Would be nice to have a lobby area. There seemed to be a lot of different Bob locations so maybe better clarity on that. For us Americans that aren’t use to European style washer/dryer. How to operate directions would have been helpful. But it was great being able to do laundry. Great stay, bed comfortable and extremely quiet. Thank you.

This was a spacious apartment with fantastic amenities. The apartment was very clean and the sauna in the apartment was amazing. It was easy to find from the train and several options for public transportation were just steps away. This was a fantastic location for my first time in Helsinki!

Professional and helpful service

It was really an amazing experience to us. The first room I booked was meant for 4 pax with sauna, the layout of the room is not great and with the sofa bed set up, the living room hanging light seems to be out of the way and we kept knocking into it. However, my friend has a last minute change of their travelling plan and needed to leave earlier. Hence we contacted Bob W to request to down-size our room. They are very helpful and professional, helped us to check availability and assisted us to change to another room meant for 2 on our remaining nights. This room although is slightly smaller without sauna, we like the layout of the room much better, it is spacious and comfortable.

Location was excellent! The penthouse was spacious and there was more than enough room for our family of 6. There are many restaurant options nearby and Senate Square is just several minutes walk away.

Clean, comfy and still quiet right in the city cen

Spotless, comfortable beds, right in the city centre. All you need in the kitchen and in bathrooms is available. Check in, though all digital, is smooth. Though, we didnt have heating working all well, and then communication is a bit hard, since we just received generated mails, but not a personal feed back on the heating issue. But we managed, the weather wasnt freezing yet. All in all, a lovely stay.

Not what I expected.

I reserved a penthouse apartment with sauna. The sauna did not work, communication was only one way, manager never responded, there was a floor plank that was rolling up and became a hazard because it was in the middle of the room and we tripped several times. The double size sofa bed is not a double, more like a wide twin, with a bar underside that was very uncomfortable.
