The breakfast is served in the former Martina restaurant located underground. This place would also need a complete make-over. However, the breakfast buffet was in immaculate condition, although the breakfast time was near its end. One man was effectively replenishing the buffet.
The reception staff was very friendly.
Our stay in a Superior Family Four room had an excellent value for the senior rate of 124 euros. My partner got also as a Scandic TOP Level member a small welcome gift and a 15-euro voucher for the bar or room minibar.
Staff were totally professionals and friendly, always there for me!
Annoyingly comfortable bed that nearly locked me from doing my school projects and also almost prevented me from working. Luckily breakfast lured me from the bed every morning - and it was depressingly good that I missed it the rest of the day. Fortunately corridors and doors were wide enough for rolling out. Much of my dismay also the location is nearly perfect, so it was nearly impossible to stuck in work and worry. Only reason I managed to worry about anything at all was (apparent) lack of restaurant in building - though, sadly, many and variety were found nearby. (***Please note the humour here***)
For you, who does not want to enjoy life, this is not your place. For the rest, just the place.

Apparently no restaurant in site, no decent possibility to eat late at night (potato chips, candy and peanuts are none such).


Generally everage service and breakfast offering and also hotel is quite outdated. Cannot really recommended
There is a parking hall in the hotel, but they have only 5 parking places there and they must be booked in advance. Why only 5 places, cause hall is much bigger? Outside they have 16 places, but they were all full. Then you have to park some 400 meters away, in some market's parking hall.
Breakfast ok, but due to lack of personnel, it does not work very well. All tables full of dirty dishes, cause they don't have time to clean them. Orange juice ran out. Then coffee and then even coffee sugar ran out. This poor waitress tried to do her best, but I think she was alone.
And last, hotel receptionist was quite rude, when I gave her some complaints. She would need an attitude chance or a new job. For 140 €/ night, you would expect some level of service. (Remember, this is Joensuu, not Manhattan).
I spend +150 nights yearly in hotels around the Europe, but this hotel I won't come back. Next two night I'll stay at the competitors place
