About this apartment rental
CHECK-IN NO LATER THAN 9:00 PM.
For you who aren't satisfied with middle of the road accommodations, this apartment in the heart of Helsinki is newly renovated with all the latest amenities and accoutrements. The building itself is historically valuable and exudes a warm glow of authenticity, making it a perfect place from which to enjoy all that Helsinki has to offer.
The apartment itself has a double bed (Murphy bed) in the living room and, above the kitchen, there’s a loft with two single beds (close to each other, see picture). The bathroom is relatively small but, with the exception of holding family meetings there, it should suffice.
I will be reachable throughout your stay, and am happy to help in any way I can.
You will be located a few blocks away from the sea, in the very centre of Helsinki. By taking a very short stroll along the peaceful streets (1 min), you will find Hietalahti market hall and square. The hall features a variety of cosy and traditional restaurants and the best burgers in town courtesy of Roslund’s butcher shop.
Everything else in Helsinki is about a 5-10 minutes’ walk away (Helsinki is truly that small!). Close nearby you will also find two tram lines (the 6 and 9), an underground subway station (Kamppi) and bus services, all able to carry you on your adventures wherever they may take you.
It is strictly prohibited to bring to the apartment persons other than the stated guests.

Our host was there to greet us outside and help with our bags, and gave us great, nearby restaurant recommendations that we loved. Apartment was very clean and my mom and I each had our own space to sleep. High end appliances/finishes. Loft likely for the limber/young, slightly low ceiling and narrow ladder, but it was perfect for me. The dishwasher and laundry were broken during our stay but it wasn't the host's fault and he was communicative about it. Overall fabulous stay with good access to Helsinki and public transport.

Loved staying in this apartment! Joachim was such a friendly, helpful, and thorough host. He met me at arrival to share with me relevant information about the apartment and offer many useful recommendations relative to my interests during my stay. The apartment was well appointed and is in a great neighborhood. Highly recommend!

It was in a great location. Close to restaurants and shopping. Close to Train Station. Clean and quiet. Joachim quickly answered all of our questions before and during our stay.
5.0 / 5.0
This property worked really well for us. It is close enough to the central core of Helsinki to be easily walkable but far enough away to provide a quiet place to relax and sleep. The building is very quiet and the apartment is easily reached on the second floor.
It is well equipped and everything worked as it should. The Murphy bed was very comfortable as well.
All in all, we have only good things to say and highly recommend it as a place to stay while in Helsinki!
5.0 / 5.0
The property was great. Beautifully renovated, close to everything and the host was very responsive and helpful. The only feedback I would add is I wish the property had more supplies like spices, condiments, dish soap, food containers for leftovers, additional towels, more pillows, laundry soap and thicker blankets.

Nicely decorated. Great location, walkable to many things yet not too touristy either. Host very helpful
5.0 / 5.0
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Helsinki! Joachim is a very helpful host and the apartment is perfectly located! Joachim was very responsive and his suggestions were wonderful. One thing to note is the apartment is a "1st floor walk up" and the elevator cannot be used. For many this won't matter but we were on an extended journey and had heavy bags. Joachim helped carry them up on our arrival but getting them down was challenging. The bathroom is a "wet bathroom" and a little on the small side but we made it work, just good to understand ahead of time. The bed is a Murphy bed, which you can see from the pictures....it is very comfortable and approximately the equivalent of a double bed. Helsinki is a beautiful city with lots to see, amazing food and friendly people (like Joachim)! We will definitely be back!

Lovely apartment, comfortable and clean with lots of natural light. We loved being able to walk to restaurants, coffee shops, markets and the mall.
Trams and buses are close by. Staying there made us feel a part of the Helsinki community.

Joachim was an excellent host, the apartment was just as described. Everything was clean and comfortable. It's a very efficient and stylish use of space and worked well for a couple of seniors. We recommend without hesitation. Thank you, Joachim!

Great choice for lodging for two
Joachim is a great host. Stayed in his flat for 5-night Helsinki leisure travel with my adult son. He loves the loft bed and me the spacious Murphy Bed. Location is a short walk from Ruoholahti metro and 24-hour K-Market shopping. Also a short walk from Kamppi or Vanha Kauppahali.
Do not forget to try a “Berlusconi” or other fine pizza at close by Itämerenkatu KOTIPIZZA shop!

Great apartment
My family of three very much enjoyed our stay in Joachim's property. The space is clean; the efficient storage made the studio seem like plenty of space for two adults and a teenager. The loft gave our son his own personal space. The kitchen is well-equipped for holiday cooking.
The location is convenient for walking to nearby attractions, groceries, restaurants, and public transportation. The neighbor and building are quiet and safe.
Joachim is a gracious host and quick to respond to questions. We highly recommend the apartment.

We really enjoyed staying at your place, Joachim.
Our only problem was that the bed was too hard and neither of us slept very well.😟

Perfect Apartment
A friend and I stayed at the apartment recently. Joachim was great to work with and helpful. The apartment was gorgeous and in a great location, we walked everywhere except when it was raining. There are restaurants and a grocery store right close by. Transportation to and from the airport was quick and easy via taxi as well. I would not hesitate to stay here again.

Perfect location and great host
We really enjoyed our stay here. You will have everything you need from grocery stores, restaurants, and public transportation. There is plenty of room for two and great storage so you don’t feel like you’re living out of your suitcase. The only thing I’d want is either an extra towel or bath mat because the bathroom is small and the floor gets wet from the shower. I would recommend staying here and walk everywhere to take in the sights of Helsinki.

Great place to stay!
We chose this place for the location and couldn't have been happier. The apartment was charming, modern, and CLEAN, which we very much appreciated. There was the ability to sleep in the loft, which we opted to do, leaving so much more room in the main level. The convenience of having a washer/dryer was a nice surprise after a week of traveling, and the kitchen was stocked with all of the necessities you could need.
Additionally, the host was very thoughtful in providing additional information about the apartment/city. We appreciated the thought he put into giving us the information about the place, and the recommendations he made in his binder he left with us
Overall, we were very satisfied with this VRBO, and would recommend it to others!

Delightful studio apartment in quiet but convenient central location
Our flight into Helsinki was badly delayed -- The owner could not have been more helpful in his flexibility in meeting us and introducing us to the property.
The apartment itself is both stylish and comfortable.
The owner's information about local shops and eateries very helpful.
We very much enjoyed our stay.

Bright, clean, classy and in a great location
I was in Helsinki for a week for a conference. The apt is located in central Helsinki, with easy access via the tram to the conference centre. It is also close to great restaurants and a wonderful grocery story (the S Market - which also has an ATM) The kitchen is well equipped, including an awesome coffee maker. Although the apt is small, it is well organized and makes good use of space. The owner is friendly and responds promptly to questions.
