This 35sqm 1-bedroom apartment is located on one of the busiest pub & restaurant streets in the city. The place oozes famous Kallio spirit and though the apartment has been modernized, the building is over 80 years old and the apartment does show its age in some places. Expect to find some loving wear, quaint aging and charming patina.
Please note that this 2nd floor apartment is located near many bars and pubs and that the area tends to get noisy and crowded especially on weekend nights.
Good for 1-4 people. The bed is a comfy 140cm wide double bed. Two extra guests can be accomodated on the sofa bed in the same room.
The house is located on the (in)famous bar street of Vaasankatu. Nightly noises from the street can be disturbing and earplugs are recommended for light sleepers who want to sleep with the window open.
The apartment is equipped with a 55inch Samsung 4K QLED smart TV. Guests have access to our Netflix and Disney+ accounts. A PS4 games console that comes with dozens of downloaded games is also available for our guests.
We want to provide our guests with everything they could possibly want and need, please do contact us if you feel that there is something lacking from the apartment during your stay. Chances are that we will be quick to act on your suggestions and wishes.
Buses, trams and metro (as well as city bikes and scooters during summer season) can all be accessed very conveniently and are a 5 minute walk away at most.
Unfortunately there is no free daytime parking available in the vicinity. On weekdays streetside parking costs 2€/h from 9am to 9pm, when free of charge parking begins. Parking is free of charge on weekends.
The apartment is located in Kallio, Helsinki’s vibrant, trendy and bohemian district with a very high density of restaurants, bars and pubs.
The area is full of great restaurants with cuisine from around the world, often to very budget friendly prices by Helsinki standards. The cheapest pint of beer in town can definitely be found in some of the nearby bars.
There is a 24/7 Supermarket (S-market) just a 4 minute walk away. Kiosks and smaller convenience stores can be reached even faster.
Located very strategically, not the least because it is just a mere 5-10 minutes away from the city center by public transportation. The western and northern parts of the city can easily be reached by tram or bus . If you are heading to eastern Helsinki you will likely choose to go there by metro, the nearest metro station is the Sörnäinen station just a 5 minute walk away.
The apartment is also located just a few tram stops away from the district of Pasila with newly opened Mall of Tripla (the biggest mall in Northern Europe), as well as Expo and Convention Centre Messukeskus.
Bus number 600 conveniently takes you from and to the airport in less than
30 minutes even during rush hour.
