VALO Hotel & Work Helsinki
was a bit disappointed. Good WiFi. Small room. Got overcharged multiple times by the staff at the bar. Ordered the same thing and it was charged multiple dollars higher everytime. $12 for a shot of vodka is legit robbery ! Next day. I got a drink at the bar around 1:45pm as well as two other people ...

Scandic Grand Marina
Room was newly refurbished and design choices were not useful: a pillar in front of the TV for example and curtains which were not intuitive to find to close. We were also up sold to a superior king room and actually only had 2 twin beds. We complained ans received a refund.
