    Breakfast is not included, I'm not sure if breakfast could have been ordered before visit. There is no air conditioning in the building, thus during hot sunny days rooms might get hot. During our stay weather was cool so it did not bother us.

    Good value for money. Excellent location, very nice view to sea from observation room (earlier used by marine guards). Very clean facilities, quiet location. Would come again and would recommend to others.

    This was one of the cleanest hostels/ guesthouses I ever have stayed in. (And I've travelled a lot around the world.) The shared kitchen was also spotless clean. I also liked the maritime-themed furnishing and decorations.

    There was no customer service at hand, and we couldn’t leave our luggage there after check-out.

    The interior decoration was beautiful, the beds very comfortable. Excellent storage for our bikes. Located right by the beautiful park, a stroll from the center. Well equipped spacey common kitchen.

    The bed (80 cm in width) may feel small to big ones; the blanket was too warm even with radiator turned down.

    The quiet and clean corridors, the view of sunrise and nice neighbourhood, the well-equiped kitchen, the convenient check-in & out

    The beds were not enough comfortable, the room was too small for four people, too hot, no bathroom for taking a shower on our floor. In a cooler day, the whole experience would be better.

    Cleanness, being near the beach, seating place outside kitchen and eating place size and facilities, decoration and design, public seats in different floors..

    It could have been a little cheaper since there was only a shower and toilet in common use. Also this wasn't mentioned to my knowlegde, came as a surprise for me

    It was clean and the idea was great

    Nothing!

    Definition of "want to come back". Very lovely small accommodation in the guest house of what used to be sea guard station. Guesthouse has two well equipped rooms with private bathrooms. Extra shared toilet available as well. Very clean, renovated, simple functional interior with seaside flavor. Beds are comfortable, fresh pristine white sheets. Kitchen is well equipped - big fridge, stove, oven, toaster, coffee machine, kettle. TV in the shared living room. Located in the peaceful district - only private houses nearby. Beach, Katariinan Park and sea are just minutes away. Center is 10-15 minutes of walking. We have very high standards for accommodation - usually there is always something to complain about. Not this time! 10 out of 10! This place is good for single person and couples. Bigger families can, perhaps, book both rooms and enjoy their stay in the total privacy.
