Hotel Pohjankievari

This is more of a motel than a hotel. You can hear all from the next rooms and corridor. Very thin walls. The room was old and shabby. Bathroom not very well equipped (no hand shower). The bed was not very good, but the linen and towels were clean. The breakfast was nice.

88 € for a night is ok if you get a tidy room and a good sleep. But if there's none, you think you should have chosen better. This is what happened to us. We drove from Helsinki to Kempele to buy a motorcycle and needed a place to spend a night. We arrived after closing time but it was ok, after reminding the stuff about our arrival, we finally got instructions and got in. The room was awful. Worn, broken, dirty. The bathroom was disgusting. Spider net, dust, dirt all over. At least the beds were good and linen clean. Unfortunately our neighbors were loud speaking ladies who spoke and spoke and the noise came through the ventilator and we could hear everything. Long trip behind so we had to shout them to keep quiet. Thank god they did but they woke up at 0730 and started to talk again. The breakfast was good and plentiful. Home made bread was a nice surprise. In the real life a place like that is worth 50€, not more. At least they should clean the rooms properly and fix them. I can give five stars to a hotel which is simple or modest but clean. This was awful.
