Pros +
- Good breakfast, clean and rooms with good bathroom.
- Perfect location in the heart of town. Friendly staff and the room was wonderful. Very clean and quiet, with lots of space.
- Very comfortable and clean. Very friendly snd helpful staff.
Cons -
- My room was on 3rd floor noises from the street at bed time were expected, but the party in another adjacent room at 2am was annoying (the earplugs were provided. and saved the 1st night!). second night was excellent and quiet even without the earplugs.
- When exiting the breakfast room there is NO WAY out without key card which I already returned in check out. That is a risk in case of fire.
- Despite the temperature being -20c or below, the rooms are super warm for night time sleeping. I was too hot at night and found it difficult to sleep in such a hot room. I turned off the heating but it did not help much.

Location, cost and breakfast
No cleaning was done in my room on a 3 day trip
Large very clean room. The sauna and fitness facilities were good and the breakfast excellent.
Resto not open Sunday evening. The working desk was very small.
Perfect breakfast for me, fresh food and drink.
I prefer to have a double bed but not a big deal
Very comfortable stay in the heart of the city, car parking also handy up the ramp. Breakfast beautiful, plentiful.
Thank you for your warm welcome.
Nice place, friendly helpful people…
Vaakuna is a good choice when staying in Joensuu as it is centrally located and offers all the comforts. We enjoyed our stay and will return.
Silent room. My wishes were taken into account.
Location is centrally located and easy to access.
