Bob W is a great place to stay. Very close to the city centre and a 5 minute walk to the waterfront. The tram stop is right at the door and connects to a multitude of tram routes. Very spacious room with a complete kitchen and plenty of storage. Highly recommend this as a great place to stay in Helsinki.
This was a fantastic experience. The woman who I believe manages everything was the best. She helped us check in and showed us the luggage storage which was so nice! The room was very well appointed. My husband loved the French press coffee in the room, and I enjoyed the tea. It is in a fantastic location. We would stay there again! We can recommend it enough!
Clean, convenient apartment living in a wonderfully appointed studio. Quick walk to primary Helsinki attractions. Restaurants and grocery in the building.

Clean room, comfortable and spacious plus great location with an easy walk to the city centre or just a quick hop on the tram
I loved my stay at Bob W. I felt safe and the proximity to main transportation including the bike shop for bike rentals was ideal. Office staff was so welcoming and helpful even when I forgot my code. :)
I truly see why Helsinki is a Happy Place!
Will definitely come back!

The apartment is in a great part of Helsinki, walking distance to the town and most key attractions. If arriving / leaving by ferry the posters are also walking distance.
Whilst we find the digital check-in process awkward and the need to pay for an early entry seems unnecessary if the room is ready. Once you’re in the apartment is great for two people. Well designed, nice fixtures, excellent design and all you’d need for a few days having a home from home in the city.
We loved staying here as our home away from home! The place was easy to check into, had free luggage storage upon arrival and departure, was clean, modern, spacious and lovely! There was so much support from the host throughout the stay and easy communication. 10/10!
The property was exactly what we wanted, good location and everything was as advertised. My only advice is to pay attention to the pre-arrival emails. It was smooth sailing to check in, but there is not the usual front dest. I would highly recommend

The location of this aparthotel was convenient with the tram stop right in front of the building. The room was spacious, modern, clean and very comfortable.
