Scouts' Youth Hostel

Joensuu

Price of a cheap room, equivalent to a camping cottage in other cities. But sanitary to doubtful cleanliness, few: 3 in all because the 4th is broken. Kitchen in poor condition where there are no more blankets and plates in addition. Bedroom adjacent to the kitchen: bad thought. In short, no more passable just for one night step.

Cleanliness to Revisit

The hostel was in a process of a refurbishement. The toilets and showers were newly made but not yet quite finished. Our room was ok even though a bit small.We didn't use the public room or the kitchen. These rooms weren't really inviting.Our reservation wasn't known at our check-in due to a defective smartphone. If there would have been noone there at that moment, I don't know wheter we could have checked-in or not. There are other ways to stay up to date for bookings even if the phone is broken.Over all it was ok. But we wouldn't have to spend more than the nights in this hostel.

Good to sleep, but not much more.

I know this place. I used to work nearby. It's a scout camp. It's a scout camp. Two-story beds, toilet and shower are common in the hallway. It's surprising the paradoxical discrepancy between the level of our compatriots' fancy cars in the parking lot of this, let's say, the hotel and the level of its service, or rather its complete absence.

It's terrible.

I was told that it was possible to change the booking (i.e. to sleep only one night, as I requested), but not get the money back, because, unlike most hostels, the payment had already been made in person, online. So, first, at the time of booking, I advise you to be careful! Avoiding this inconvenience (my fault), my review of the Youth Hostel is not positive.

Spartan chamber, little cleaning

The hostel has 2 double-decker beds, a table and chairs, and 2 bathrooms. The kitchen is very budget-friendly. The city centre can be reached on foot in 10-15 minutes.

Hostel

We stayed with friends in a four-bedroom. If you arrive after 8:00 pm, warn the staff in advance, there may be no one at the reception. Typical social gathering. Bed linen for a separate fee. From the furniture in the room are two-story beds and a table with chairs. There is one shower. There is a small kitchen with a refrigerator, microwave, a variety of dishes, tea, spices, electricity. But in later times it doesn't look much like it, too.

Hosted by the saver.

The first time I stayed in a hostel, not counting the purchase of one room by the whole company. It turned out to be very decent. Everything was clean everywhere - in common areas, rooms, showers, normal mattresses, laundry. The kitchen had everything necessary. Very nice staff. Everything was okay :) Many complained about the speed of the Internet, but I was with the modem, so I can't say anything. To the center on foot for 15 minutes.

The hostel was pleased.

The hostel is about out of city so this would be best when travelling by car.

We were only guests in the hostel on a rainy day of June. Everything worked well and our room was clean, though out-dated.

This is not for luxury-seeker but was well worth the small amount of money we paid.

Out-dated but dirt cheap!

We spent two nights here without any particular problems; we used the common kitchen, but in the dining room there were also brandy, some of which you occupy!!! Apart from a little discomfort for the thing that seems rather strange to us, I note the tranquility of the place, the convenience of a supermarket and the proximity to the center. Availability and cleanliness in the norm
