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.
