I had an enjoyable stay at Scandic Simonkenttä, though there were a few downsides. The location is perfect, being close to public transport and shopping centers. I loved the breakfast spread—it had an amazing variety. However, the room I stayed in lacked a few amenities, like a kettle, which was inconvenient. Overall, I'd rate my experience highly, but there's room for improvement.

I had a pleasant stay at Scandic Simonkenttä, enjoying its great central location and the comfortable room I had. However, the inconsistent housekeeping service was a disappointing aspect, which made me hesitate to give it a perfect rating. The breakfast had a good variety, though the chaotic atmosphere during busy times was noticeable.

Rooms

My room was neat, tidy, and well presented, with a comfortable bed. However, I did notice that there was a lack of tea and coffee-making facilities, which felt outdated. The sound insulation was good, allowing for a peaceful night's sleep even in a busy hotel.

The check-in process was friendly and efficient, but I did experience some issues with the reception staff's attentiveness. Although some team members were helpful, others seemed overwhelmed or unapproachable, which wasn't ideal. Housekeeping also varied in quality during my stay, which detracted from the overall experience.

I found the gym and sauna facilities to be good, providing ample space for relaxation after a long day. However, I felt disappointed that there were no secure luggage storage options, as I needed to take my bags with me rather than leave them unmonitored.

I had a mixed experience at Scandic Simonkenttä. The location is fantastic, being so close to the train station and major attractions. However, I found the bed uncomfortable, and cleanliness could definitely be improved with dusty mirrors and window frames. Breakfast was a highlight, offering a great variety, but some amenities were lacking.

I found the rooms to be clean but not very modern. The bed situation was a disappointment, with two single mattresses that weren't comfortable. Also, the bathroom layout lacked privacy due to gaps in the door and flooding issues during showers.
