Aalto Inn

It is a nice Inn you can find all the utensils you would need on a daily basis. A little on the expensive side but it is inside the university campus and you can get a nice discount if you book through the university, the longer you stay the daily price of acommodation also gets cheaper

I enjoyed my stay at Aalto Inn, and I hope to return soon. A special mention goes to the cleaning team, who consistently provided invaluable assistance. Here are some suggestions for improvements: 1. There must be instruction manuals for some appliances, such as the heater, microwave, intercom, and oven, in the common area. 2. It would be a great addition to having a mixer or blender among the appliances available in the kitchen or common area. 3. Clear instructions for accessing common areas, such as the sauna, would be helpful. 4. Upgrading the TV to a Smart TV or providing an HDMI cable would improve the entertainment options. 5. Regarding waste separation, it may be more practical to have just two containers for organic and non-organic waste, as it is challenging to ensure that residents correctly separate their waste into multiple containers for various materials. Additionally, an air freshener in the Waste Room can help improve odors. 6. The main entrance was sometimes broken. Overall, I had a positive experience, and these suggestions to improve the guest experience further.

I have been for more than 3 weeks in a very modern 1 bedroom apartment. Has almost everything you need for a stay. Nice light windows, beautiful kitchen, very comfortable living room and good bed. Very big bathroom and walking closet. Well located for bus and metro ( about 5 blocks up hill) Next to the water and sports activities as well as Aalto”University campus. Not so clear the process for entering the building for the first time, but could make it with support on the phone. As it has no reception it could be a good suggestion if they have a whatsapp to contact. They only have e-mail and sometimes it gets long to answer. Well housekeeping and maintenance team. Have 2 washing machines and well organized timetable in a laundry. It could be good if they provide detergent, (they do only for the washing machine) , and shampoo at least for the arrival. Beautiful common place to read or relax in each floor. Also have a kitchen with oven there, a big table and enough chairs with a glass room to be. The surroundings are very nice, waterfront and nice pathway to enjoy the area. Just in front of a track and field, paddle courts and gymnasium. Very safe area. I can highly recommend it.

The location of Aalto Inn was perfect not only because this was for me a work trip to Aalto University but also because it is in the nice natural landscape of Otaniemi. Other things contributing to a good work trip were that the apartment was nice, clean, and well equipped, the weekly cleaning and linen / towel change, large amazing indoor public spaces for working / relaxing / dining, and the washing/drying machines.

The building and appartments are functional and aesthetical pleasing. There is no "reception (just phone, e-mail)" - so some things cannot be organized right away. Housekeeping is very good and they also support in other questions. We were there in Winter and the the flat was heated up to 24° C which you could not really regulate down. It's a "passive house", which means the ventilation in the rooms is always running which you can also hear. Flats are not really suitable for families with children - e.g. no extra sleeping rooms for children in the appartment. There are community kitchens which during our stay no-one used. So you do not really meet other guests. I missed a "hobby" room for kids to play with a snooker-table, ping-pong table, table-football or playstation - somewhere you actually meet people. Also community events were missing. Apart from that, communication with UniHome via E-Mail was always very professional, fast and helpful. It was a very pleasant three month stay with my family.

I stayed in Aalto Inn for almost 27 days. The place is within walking distance from the bus stop and Aalto university metro station. You can walk around the sea. The loft apartment and the common living area were highly clean as well as quiet. All the instructions were explained clearly before moving in. The cleaning staff is doing their job up to mark. I will highly recommend this place and look forward to staying there in the future.
