    Nice way to travel from Helsinki to Tallinn or the other way in the night and save money for accommodation. The room has the size you choose, but for just sleeping it's okay.

    It was reasonable price to stay 1 night for going to Talin.
  • L

    It is a good option to combine overnight and a trip to Tallinn in one go. It serves the purpose despite a short night.
