HI Helsinki airport

- What is your Priority Club status?
None

- Were you (or for multi-stayers are you generally) happy with the hotel/stay?
Yes

- Which room did you book and which upgrade did you receive?
BFR+breakfast. Got standard room

- How are the rooms?
Typical HI, the whole hotel is quite dated, but OK clean

- How is the exec. lounge?
No lounge AFAIK

- What was good and what was bad?
Good:
Easy shuttle bus to terminals
I got complimentary candy and fruits as welcome (unusual) which I interpreted as a thanks for booking the highest(!?) rate (I had to book flexible for travel reasons)
Proximity to the big nearby mall and spa

Bad
Nothing other than the hotel is ugly and dated.

- Value for $ or Priority Club Points? Would you return?
For private travel no (ugly and not cheap, typically 110-130€)
For business yes (the other hotels along the same shuttle bus route are similar price but even more ugly and not part of global chains)
