Scandic Helsinki Aviacongress

Location was pretty good and free shuttle buses very useful. Room was pretty clean and staff helpful. Breakfast was adequate.

We were on the top floor with kids up in a loft, it was hot in the room so we switched the a/c to cold and turned it on. The room became stifling hot so I went down to the lobby to say the a/c was not working properly - where i was told that the a/c was either heating or cooling controlled by the hotel and since it was now "fall" it was set to heat only. We were told to open the window which semi-worked, although also left us with a large open window which obscured the room meaning it had to be closed to get past. It also meant we had to open and close the window to try and control the temperature of the room along with a large open window with a 5 floor drop

Location: near airport. Little bit hard to find the #57 bus to the hotel (free of charge)

Really smelled! Obviously just finished the decoration and made us THAT room :(
