Good apartments but irritating checkin system

Apartments were fine and the location was great, but check-in with fully online system and no person to answer any call was hassle.

Citykoti offers easy short term apartment rentals in Helsinki downtown. This time my place was mixed bag - the apartment was extra small, somewhat worn down and dirty. However it was at a good location, offered kitchenette and a washing machine and that's all what I needed.

Tiny apartment.

Tiniest place ever! But....but...it was 2 blocks from everything we wanted to see. Close to the metro, buses; vibrant area. Not sure we would stay there again, it was so small, but we had a blast! Major drawback was getting the keys and having no one help us. Very safe area, just small!

Uncomfortable and rude

Horrible hotel - the only good thing was it’s location right in downtown. Super uncomfortable hard beds(it’s probably softer to sleep on the floor!), hard wood chairs so there was nowhere to comfortably sit in the room. Impossible small bathroom with no room to move in the shower without turning the water off. There was only 4 small packs of shampoo( enough for 2 days, and we stayed 2 weeks) and 1”x1” piece of soap. No cleaning services during your stay. The room looked completely different compared to the picture online. The female assistant at the main office was extremely rude to us. We were given only 1 key so we couldn’t even go and explore the city separately! Online it was posted as a 4 star hotel, but I would say it’s below 1. We will NEVER stay there again!

This place has a great location and a cool feel. It's small but has everything. Part B was hard to find (through the car port). I never actually met anyone working there.

It was a good basic facility - no soap and I think no towels. There was a small kitchen area with utensils, glasses, plates. The room was temperature controlled. It is a little far from town - maybe 10-15 minutes. The bed was okay. The staff is very friendly and helpful, and there is a communal room where you can eat, make coffee, although you will need your own supplies. I paid about $100 US dollars in mid June - Helsinki is an expensive city. It is a good value.

The apartment is very central, and set up perfectly! It was clean and although slightly dodgy looking on the outside it was very cozy inside! Parking is 18Euros a day but not always available.

Great value. Would stay here again.

Overall good experience, and would definitely stay here again. Would like to see a couple minor tweaks: 1) A bit more clarity on the after hours entrance/apartment location information. The instructions to find the apartment could be a tad clearer. I had a little trouble finding the correct entrance door/gate, and I ran into two other parties trying to check in after hours that were having a tough time figuring out where the lock boxes &/or apartments were. 2) Would like to see some flexibility on the checkout time. I asked for a later checkout than 10am, but the apartment management said it "wasn't possible".

The staff that welcomed us was friendly, and the apartment was close to the city centre. However this is where the good things end. They have crazy checkin/checkout hours (checkin after 15, checkout before 10), which is probably my fault that I missed during reservation. However the apartment and especially the bathroom could have taken some extra cleaning. The plates were so dirty and greasy that they were actually stick to each other. The walls are so thin that you practically hear everything that happens in 3 floors radius. Maybe they have renovated a few rooms for the photos you see here, but ours was definitely not one of those. I understand that this option was much cheaper than a hotel, but still I expected more.

This place is managed as rental apartment not a hotel, staff does not make customer feel welcomed. No receptionist here just employee working as rental office clerk. Extremely disappointed of the way they treat customer.

Clean apartment close to everything in Helsinki!

We chose a CityKoti downtown apartment for our two day stay in Helsinki for its prime location to the metro station, nearby shopping and eating choices, size, and affordable cost. We were immediately impressed by the staff who graced us with an upgrade to a bigger family room upon arrival. The apartment was completely clean, appliances in working order, and smelled fresh.
