I was a bit reluctant initially as it was expensive. I needed to book 2 rooms. I am glad I did choose GLO for the following reasons:
1) The room was so quiet. Finland is quiet in general but having a super quiet room helped to adjust to the new time zone.
2) The ventilation system is superior compared to many hotels I have stayed at around the world. It's quiet and does the job properly so the room does not smell musty.
3) The room was small but that is typical of Europe. Did not feel suffocating thanks to the high ceiling. Also, the bathroom is an American size bathroom so it was a pleasant surprise.
4) Breakfast was top quality. Porridge was the best. There were many other options such as crepes. I felt I was eating high quality, good ingredients food like the whip cream and jam unlike high fructose garbage offer in hotels in America. Eating bad breakfast in American hotels will lead the population to needing American size bathroom.
5) The location is so convenient. It's fast to take the train to Helsinki or to the other direction. There are couple of supermarkets 2 minutes away to grab food. There is no unsafe area in Finland so I need not to comment about the safety of the areas outside of this hotel.
In conclusion, I am glad I chose GLO. I encourage American visitors to check out GLO to experience the difference in the architecture quality and food quality.
