Good stay overall. It is a bit noisy with street noise (workers at 6:30am on Sunday) but ear plugs are provided. Basic kitchen and room had own fridge. Sauna in basement is great if the schedule works for you. Self check-in was smooth with a unique door code that works for all doors. Great location not far from train station and on main shopping street with many food options and a grocery close by.

Not worth the price

Pros: - good Wi-Fi - easy to find - check in instructions are sent via sms Cons: - Shower drain in 2 showers were broke and water was flooded - Sauna is not every day - The rooms doors are very noisy when being closed , it will slap very hard if you don’t hold it and when that happen, you can feel beds are shaking/ vibrating - Uncomfortable hard bed / pillows can be renewed - very Late check in 16:00 and early check out 11:00 - not worth the amount I paid at all (~65€)

No frills, no fuss Hostel

This is a no frills, no fuss Hostel right in the centre of the downtown area. It's still quiet even during a concert, partly because there are no windows. The shared facilities (showers, kitchen and wc) are located in the centre with the rooms around the edges. So other guests could be a problem, but we had no such issues. Parking is an issue, it's more suitable for those travelling with public transport

Great destination for introverts. Check-in is automated, and all rooms are private and secure. Kitchen facilities are small and disappointingly basic. Facility is impeccably clean and well kept, reasonable priced, and smack in the middle of the downtown hub.

Extempore miniloma

Kaikki toimi hyvin ja paikat pääosin siistissä kunnossa. Huoneessa ei toinen yövaloista toiminut ja kummankin mekanismi oli rikki, eli ei voinnut suunnata lamppua miten ois halunnut vaan lamppu "roikkui" jalassa. Hostelli oli ihanan rauhallinen, mutta ikkunan takana kirkui lokit koko yön ja unet jäi huonoksi, mikä ei toki ole hostellin väen syytä. Onneksi huoneessa oli tarjolla korvatulpat, mikä vähän helpotti tilannetta. Huoneesta ei löytynyt tietoa saunavuoroista, mikä olisi kiva lisä ko. kohteessa.

Hostelli painajainen

Saavuttuamme hostelliin, ulko- oven sähkölukko putosi irti ovesta ja alkoi huutaa. Huoneeseen päästyämme, sängyllä oli kuollut koiperhonen ja juoksenteli koppakuoriaisia. Jaettua suihku tilaa ei pysty lukitsemaan. Vaihdoimme majoitusta samana iltana green city hotelliin joka oli hyvä! Odottelemme edelleen hyvitystä forenomilta.

Ainoa syy miksi valitsin Forenomin on puhtaasti hinta. Itse huone olisi kaivannut enemmän siisteyttä hostellista puhumattakaan. Sauna ei ollut lämminnyt kuten piti olla. Kuulemma vahinko. Pyydettiin itse laittamaan päälle sähkökaapista. Uskomatonta.
